Riverside Resort

Riverside Resort floats the Spring River at Mammoth Spring, where the spring boil at the state line puts out cold water year round and keeps the river running when the Ozark creeks around it are low. Two trips are sold, a 5-mile and an 8-mile, both from $45 and both open to all ages, in rafts, tubes, kayaks or canoes. A $13 day pass covers river access for the day, with children twelve and under free. The cold flow supports stocked rainbow trout through the upper river, with smallmouth and walleye in the warmer water further down. A riverside store handles supplies at the landing.
