Enjoy Canoeing & Kayaking in Arkansas

River View Cabins & Canoes is the premier kayak rental destination in Arkansas. We offer a complete experience with canoe and kayak rentals, shuttle services, and cozy stays in our cabins.


Located along the Ouachita River, we provide our guests with the opportunity to enjoy an all-day adventure, relax on a two-hour float, or cruise with the stream. Our shuttle services provide upstream and downstream access which makes us the ideal way to enjoy the best fishing Arkansas has to offer.


The Ouachita River sits in the Ouachita National Forest and features some of the state's most unique and vibrant wildlife. Our canoe rentals in Arkansas come with more than a canoe and an oar, we offer immersive outdoor experiences unlike any other.
