Smooth Rapids Outfitters, Tennessee, United States
5.0 (44 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in McMinnville Boat Rentals • Kayaking & Canoeing
Tent camping, campers and a restaurant all in the same place! Genius!
We have kayaked here several times. We decided to tent camp and kayak Oct 16. The river was very visible from our site. The site was clean, quiet and the port o potty was very clean and kept stocked with tp. There are very nice campers set up for those who like to glamp. Those are rented through Airbnb. It was a quaint, more intimate camping spot so the noise level was perfect. We ate dinner at their restaurant one night and the food was very good, the staff was friendly and the whole set up is just convenient. They definitely have a great gig going on and we are so glad we found them. The river was a little low so our kayak ride was not as smooth. This normally would not have mattered but it was only 62 degrees and I DID NOT WANT to tip. Over all, we had an awesome weekend and will definitely return.

A must while in McMinnville. Water and great food all on the same excursion!
So much fun. We hadn’t been for a while and since one of the members of our group hadn’t been thought we would give him a fun time. They are so accommodating and always happy to help any way that you might need. Not a camper, but their camp ground was clean and you have a view of the river. The Smooth Rapids restaurant is also very good. They have outside sitting which is nice. We took the short trip, but next time going for the long one. This is a must if you are in town. My husband and I are mid 70’s and it was a Funtime for us also. Hope to see you on our river which is clear and beautiful.

5 star service
Best kept secret in camping and kayaking. Staff goes above and beyond, the kayaking is awesome, and the restaurant is just the icing on the cake. Not 5 star camping facilities, but that is actually a huge part of the charm. We absolutely love everything about this place.
