Boats and canoes can be put into the Arkansas River here. Bikes and recreational equipment are available for rent (call for rates). An interpretive center displays exhibits on the flora and fauna of the area, there are demonstration gardens along the river, and the Cafe del Rio serves American and Southwestern dishes.
