Oak Hurst Golf Course
 | Oak Hurst is a very challenging round of golf, although the course is wide open the big greens and bermuda fairway's are hard to hold because of lack of rain. The staff is first class and very attentive of your needs.... |
Neches River
 | 13 miles away 1 PHOTO ... downed tree, you crawl over the tree and then get back in. I'm sure the when and where the trees are down changes quite often.... And it looks like someone (probably the river authority) takes a saw down and cuts some of this out from time to time.
The put in location is correct. However, the take out is not. You need to float further down to the 175 bridge (less than 1/4th mile) and get out there.
I would suggest that experienced paddlers attempt this only when the water is high from heavy rains or when the dam is letting a lot of water out. There's vegetative litter stuck in the trees 10 foot above the water line.... So at some points of the year... This thing moves... And could represent dangers with the amount of timber.
You might consider taking a machete on this trip just in case. Don't forget the fishing pole, or if you are an archer, a bow for the huge gar and buffalo. There's plenty of fishin to do .
This trip with little effort takes approx 3 hours. If you live nearby, you need to make this float. Glad this short trip is nearby, I plan to float ... |
