Great float and the staff were awesome. Just be sure to ask any directions you need for the flat if you feel like you need information. They event helped us bring up our personal kayak to the car from the river. Beautiful scenery and they gave good feedback on where to follow the river.

It was ok, the bus we got on wouldn't start, we had to wait around 20 minutes to get fixed, than they ran out of ores and we had to wait another 15 minutes before we could get on the water, but it was fun anyway.

They are considerate and try to take care of everything needed for a great float.Someone does not understand how this unit works and is spending a ton of money 💰 to heat this space with an air conditioner!

We had a great time! I have never kayak before, but enjoyed the 4 mile trip with some rapids. What an experience! We will be back!

Did the 8 mile trip with no direction on where or what to do until asking enough to get by. Got out at wild goose like told only to find out we could have saved $30 per person using them. Then the guy from skippa that pick us up was very unfriendly and blew stop signs without care. Definitely recommend driving the few extra miles to wild goose.

A great experience. Kayaks and paddles were high quality. Staff was friendly and nice. We did the 5 mile trip in the morning, made it to the drop off point and the friendly staff came and picked us up and drove us back to our vehicle. A great experience on a beautiful river. Our whole party would go again.

Went on the 4hr kayaking trip. All 12 of us had a very good time. Owner is super nice and they take care of everything. They unload and set you up at the drop point, and load up all the equipment at the exit point. Note: take a cushion, towel, or anything to use as a back rest in the kayak. I used my life jacket up until I flipped in a rapid and lost it.

The people at Skippa-Rock River Floats were easy to deal with and they took great care of us. Will use them every time!!!

We had a blast! These guys work hard all day shuttling kayaks back and forth. Very friendly staff and our 4 mile trek was a blast!

I've been kayaking several times in a few different states and this was by far my favorite place. From the scenery, to the fun (but safe) rapids, to navigating and maneuvering around the rocks in the water, it was excellent. The employees at the location were so warm and kind. I came with a group of about 50 young adults and despite how busy they were, Skippa Rock stayed true to the hospitality of their family business. About a week after, I scheduled another appointment to come back with my girlfriend. I simply have to come back.

my first experience was good But I wanted to recently go and was excited that their website said open 7 days a week. That turned out not to be true.

Great and friendly staff! This was our first time to visit Broken Bow, and Skippa is the best in the business! They offer a Veterans discount, and we highly recommend Skippa Rock for your fun adventure.

Went with a group and we wish we would have been told exactly what to expect while on the 4 mile trip. Website states a calm fun float when in reality there is one part of the river that most people were struggling with (multiple rocks, faded direction signs that should tell you which way to go down river, waterfall). Overall an ok time, just wish we would have been fully prepared for what we were going to experience. If you are going for a chill float, this is not your trip.

I love this place and it's location. The landscape reminded me of Colorado, where I long to live some day. This activity is perfect for tourists and locals alike looking to be immersed with nature. The service itself was friendly and personal, a man carried us to the beginning in his truck (where we ended up seeing someone lose their trailer on a dirt road) and he held nice conversation with us. He pushed us into the river and it was an immersive experince. It was very wet, though! I liked the turtles hat were mating on a rock as our boats floated by. Near the end of our trip, we wet fretted by the same person who took us the start of the river tour, after having an ecstatic experience.

Super location. Don't wait for a shuttle back to your car. Customer service was spectacular. They loaded my personal kayaks from truck to river to truck. Rides were in air conditioned SUV instead of a 25 year old beatup van. New owner- Colten- is committed to great experience. From now on, I'll go here first.

These people care! Incredible customer service!! Owner is onsite and on hand to answer any questions. Very personable. The owner himself found a paddle my son lost while playing on the shore, paddled himself upstream a half mile to check on us. We were doing great, but he made our day a million times better knowing he had our backs!

After using a few others I decided to give SR a try & they did not disappoint. They were very accommodating, professional, and kind! I did the 9mile and it was perfect! Thanks for the awesome ride

Great prices and friendly staff. My family did the 5 Mile float, which was a nice calm drift down the river. The kayaks were in great shape and very comfortable!

Horrible service. No one spoke to us! We got in the van by ourselves, got up river, they gave no instructions! Just pushed us out. Terrible service! Do not use these guys. Too much competition in the area to tolerate this service level. We will use someone else for our next trip.

We arrived late in the morning and we had to wait a couple of hours but it was a fun trip . I have used other kayak rentals from the area but these were some of the newest on the river . There were other rental companies whose kayaks were sinking . Skippa rock is a family ran and super down to earth people . It's most convenient place to rent .... your car is parked within walking distance of the end and you don't have to wait around on the van or other people to come in.

Busy summer months it's hard to know how many people are going to be floating the river. Go later in the afternoon less people and less sun! PEOPLE PICK UP YOUR TRASH!! We asked the float guide for a bag and they told us they use to give them to every person and then the bags even stopped coming back. They gave us a large black trash bag... I could have used the whole box 😏 Other than that it was a relaxing day with nature!

We had a great time. They were very accommodating- we didn't have a reservation, but they took us out with no issue. Super nice folks!!

Had a great time. Their place is great because it's right on the river. No shuttle needed after your trip.

This was by far a great trip! They take you to the start point and you end back at the boathouse and your vehicle. They were friendly and accomodating.

Ok well I don't usually write reviews but if I do the place deserved it this is a great place to go if you and your family wants to get out and do something it is kinda bare bones you get a kayak a paddle and a back rest aka life jacket but the amount of fun you can have is tremendous there is a 4 foot drop water fall and tons of rapids you get 4 hours of fun adventure and adrenaline but,all in all I would make this a must if you are ever in broken bow Oklahoma.
