I was looking for something cool to do in Chattanooga for a sisters’ trip, and came across this. Right up our alley! An easy paddle close to sunset, surrounded by mountains, water, and glorious nature. The guides were great! Friendly, knowledgeable, and fun! Our guide, Bill, positioned us so the bats were backlit by the last bit of sunset, and it was just amazing. Even though it’s not a far drive from civilization, it’s so nice to know wild places like this still exist, and are protected and treasured.❤️ Highly recommend, would do again.

Super cool evening on the water. Not a ton a bats visible this time of year but I'd go again tonight if were still there. With the guides' directions, we did get some perfect videos of them. The guides were also great and very helpful with the older and inexperienced kayakers in our group. Highly recommend !

I loved being on the water for the sunset. We only saw a few bats, maybe 5 and I was expecting a lot more. I didn’t realize that later in the season there was less chance to see them. The guides were Great!
