🌊 Clinch River Days Weekend Update 🌊

Clinch Life Outfitters will be open and available for kayak/tube trips and shuttle service during Clinch River Days on May 29 & 30!

To help us get everyone safely off the water and have our equipment out of the way before festival traffic picks up, our last shuttle must leave our store no later than 2:00 PM.

Reservations are highly recommended, as availability may be limited.

We are also closely watching water levels and weather conditions and will only operate if we can do so safely.

📩 Message us, call, or stop by to reserve your spot!
