The rate was $18 an hour plus an additional $5 dollars for every additional hour and $5 for helmets. They sell water if you need it and have a holder on each bike for a water bottle. We rode first to Whalen and checked out the pie shop and then returned and went back the other way for a while for a total of two hours. A pretty bike trail that is mostly flat. The visitor center is right next-door and has clean restrooms. A very nice experience.

Great bike rental place right on the Root River Trail.

Would definitely do it again! Seeing all the tubes and kayaks out front of the store made me think it would be super fun to hit the water next summer!

Apparently there is a local legend about an "actual" bigfoot roaming the dense forests that fill in…read morethe space between the corn, soybean and alfalfa fields that line the local hills and valleys. The folks at BigFoot Canoe (and kayak) Rentals have never seen one, but you never know. Season 11, episode 9 of Finding Bigfoot on the Discovery Channel filmed an episode nearby - spoiler alert - they didn't find one. But it's worth the trip even without a legitimate chance of a sighting. We rented a canoe for trip from Bridge 16 to a landing a mile or so past Ion. Their website says this is the most challenging part of the river. I've canoed, tubed and kayaked in the Upper Iowa river above Decorah dozens of times, and this was our first experience on the Yellow River. For comparison's sake, I would estimate this stretch at about 15% more "dangerous" (relatively speaking) and exciting than a typical stretch between Bluffton and Decorah on the Upper Iowa. The staff told us that we had to know what we were doing to paddle the stretch, so they seem to agree with my assessment. A little faster, narrower, turnier, and more and slightly steeper rapids in places. It also seemed to have much less river traffic; we didn't see anyone else all afternoon. The staff at BigFoot were friendly and helpful. They returned my telephone inquiry call promptly, and were prepared for my arrival as scheduled. They seem to have plenty of kayaks and canoes, so pick your poison.

I used to take my littles there multiple times a year, but they are now 12 and 9 and even they are starting to take notice of how trashy it is getting. All that staff seems to be allowed to do is nicely ask them to stop, which is not doing anything to correct the situation. Someone needs to start pulling some passes for the day so the word gets out so that the behavior doesn't kill this ski hill!!!

I won't go into too many details, but I inadvertently booked our reservation, along with our friends' reservation, at the wrong hotel!! Thanks to an assist from Bill Griffen from Boyd Gaming/Grand Harbor, the hotel switch was made. However, we will be traveling with good friends and they were having difficulty making a reservation. Nothing is simple! Needless to say, this became complicated, but Antoine completely understood the situation, booked all of our rooms with very good rates and I'm so happy he answered my call! A total professional who took the time to listen and understand our complicated reservations. We are looking forward to our stay this summer and, once again, thank you, Antoine!!

Instead we chanced it and my 6 year old ended up with crazy hives on our last day, after 2 days of waterpark. Doctor confirmed it folliculitis from the waterpark and said she also treated another kid from the same one some time ago. The TVs were straight out of the 90's no ability to stream as even cheap hotels do now. You had to wait 30 minutes to go up or down on the elevator. The continental breakfast was an absolute joke with a line that was an hour long. Literally worst waterpark hotel I have ever been to. Stay away!

The grounds are very well kept and they have great service. It was a bit pricey for my liking but this was to be expected when they do trash pickup, firewood drop off, and operate a nicely stocked convenience store on grounds. If I was going with a bunch of teens, this would be high on my list for keeping them entertained and supplied.
