- Do you go in the rain? Yes, our boats are covered and we provide umbrellas at the site for the trail walk.

Service animals are dogs and miniature horses trained to perform tasks for the benefit of individuals with physical or mental disabilities –such as guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, altering and protecting people prone to seizures, or other tasks directly related to a disability.
Pets and other animals whose sole function is to provide comfort, companionship or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act or state law, and they are not allowed on our boats.
