Also, they let your four legged friends pal around with you. The staff I've encountered is overwhelmingly nice. The shuttle driver will fill your head with knowledge about the area in the short trip to the drop off spot and is probably one of the friendliest people I've met. If you're looking to have a day out on the water, this is where you should go.

We…read morearrived at the shop located on Main Street in Louisville, received a few instructions/tips, signed a waiver, and drove to the shuttle meet up spot about a mile away. The shuttle driver was very friendly and gave us tips based on the current water levels/sandbar locations. It was a beautiful day, the only downside was we had to do a little bit of walking due to sand bars, plus the river was a little lower than normal due to lack of rain. All staff were friendly and helpful. I don't recommend taking kids if they are not avid swimmers or old enough to have safety awareness as water levels can get deep in some parts. Stay in your tube in those areas and you'll be safe and have an amazing time!

Cool day trip, however, read the full thing. I had heard…read morethis was a cool day activity and had wanted to do it for over two years. John took me for my birthday in the middle of the week. He planned everything and was in contact with Brock, the owner who was super responsive and helpful. He sends out emails with information, packing list and makes sure the weather is good for tubing. When we got there, btw place is easy to find using his address, we signed a waiver and were loaded on a school bus. We were dropped off at a river crossing location and our tubes were attached as well as a tube for our cooler, we were given a paddle and that was all. We were on our own for this 4 h adventure down the river. I should pause to say most people that do this have a different plan and they usually have a big party with a big group and loud noise water guns etc. Our plan was a little different, more of enjoying the river and the scenery. The river itself is dark since the bottom is muddy so no clear waters, but it's clean, there are some tree branches here and there, but no trash itself. There are sandbars along the way where you can stop. The trip usually lasts about 4 hours which is significantly more than what I would've been on the tube if I would have had the choice. We applied sunscreen repeatedly and we still were pretty tan by the end of the ride. Bottom line: well organized and good idea, it gets 4 stars because the river is not the prettiest and the ride is too long (for my taste) maybe offering a half ride from like the bridge on Center might be a good idea. Oh, I almost forgot, bonus points: we saw our first bald eagle!!

Also a permanent canopy/tent that can serve snacks etc. Right by the Elkhorn River. Campsites all along the edge of the river, all have fire pits. Picnic tables everywhere. Beach access to the river (you can also set up an appointment with Uncle Scott's Outfitters and be picked up at this park to drive up river and float down the river for a couple of hours, then you get off at Riverwest's beach. Private park open to the public, so you have to pay to get in. I personally don't have little kids or anything but I have seen plenty of families camp out here.

I have visited Two Rivers in Summer and Spring, but my most recent visit was in early winter - and…read morethe winter season, while different from the fun of summer days - is still a cool time to visit and see the changes the season has made on the park. The water at Two Rivers stays strikingly blue no matter which season you visit, so I think it's definitely one of the cleaner parks in the regions, when it comes to water quality. There also was no litter that I saw, so whoever is maintaining the park is doing a great job. Two Rivers has great walking trails around the lake, so it's a wonderful place to go get some exercise in a cool surrounding. It's also never been busy when I visited, so if you like a more tranquil walk, it could be a good option for you. They also offer camping, fishing, swimming, and other outdoor activities (probably more for in the summer season), as well as horse trails if you happen to have a horse! For boating, they only allow non powered boats, so keep that in mind if you're wanting to fish off your boat. While this isn't a huge park compared to a few others in the Omaha/Iowa area, it does offer a lot of activities and cool scenery for being a smaller park! Definitely worth a visit, even if it's a short one.

Horrible experience tubing today. We were told the river was low and the float might take longer…read more Little did we know that the float was 98% walking and maybe 2% floating. It was awful, one of our floaters tore ligaments in her knee and had to be rescued off the river by paramedics. There was never any mention of what to do in case of emergency. You are certainly on your own. The Nishnabotna is horrible terrain to walk through. I do not recommend tubing down the Nishnabotna at all, especially when water levels are low.

New owners are whiney and you can tell hate people and children. We have taken this trip for 6…read moreyears and every other year the owners have walked new people through how to best paddle the kayak. These owners try to put you in the worst and oldest equipment and send new kayakers off with out so much as a minute of coaching. Then when you are through, owner is there in a very sour mood to greet you. Not so much as a hello. Angry owner then emails you days later to complain that you didn't help him when he didn't ask for help. And accused us of losing a carry handle and plug. These items were probably missing from the start as one of the kayaks continuously sunk during the trip. Very unhappy people run this operation. Said they will be operating in the red. I dont know if he is holding a grudge from 2 years ago when a child lost a paddle during a trip (in which we paid him cash before we left). Beware. Be sure to check the old, cheap equipment for missing plugs and handles before you take off as well as Google your own training for maneuvering a kayak, if you are new. Dont count on having any fun, that is against owner's wishes.

Fun-Plex is the perfect size: big enough to keep both kids and adults entertained all day without feeling overwhelming. It's also surprisingly well kept and clean--none of the attractions felt run down or in disrepair. There's a great mix of water rides and non-water attractions, making it fun for all ages. I especially loved the lazy river and the water bumper cars, and there are dedicated areas that are perfect for little ones, too. I grew up in the Kansas City area and spent many summers at Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun. Fun-Plex honestly wins for me because of its more manageable size and overall cleanliness. One minor downside for me was the bar located in the middle of the park--it always seemed busy with parents drinking while kids played. That's not my personal preference, but to each their own. A few tips: wear sunscreen, bring snacks, and be prepared--food is on the expensive side (as expected for a park), but there are decent options. The ice cream portions are huge, which was a fun bonus. Overall, Fun-Plex exceeded my expectations and made for a fantastic day trip. Highly recommend for families looking for a full day of fun.

THEY ACTUALLY SUBCONTRACT QUALITY CONTROL OUT TO A STAFFING AGENCY! What does that tell you? - You can count on products not solidifying or curing correctly & removal is going to be VERY expensive. Compression strengths fail, adhesion fails, no durability and a complete lack of accountability. This crap will wreck your project & construction in record time. Don't learn the hard way. Ash grove / materials packaging will set your project back by months- AFTER you discover how bad the products are. Explain that to your pissed off customer. Even the president himself ((Stephen Boyland)) is a liar & dishonest con; and when it starts at the top, it goes all the way to the bottom. The Fremont plant is incompetent at the top & that really affects their products & employee performance. This is in large part due to mismanagement by an old uneducated 'left over' (Bob Iossi) who keeps his job due to cronyism (Boyland is his buttPal). Even the good employees there can't make the product to specs because of Boyland & Bill Iossi's 'mUCKagement'. Through Bob's absent minded, senile 'management' and his illiterate staff of high school drop outs (Like Christina Merchlewitz- glorified sUcretary, who can't even type a sentence with less than 3 spelling & 5 grammatical errors); screwing up orders and wreaking havoc on an employee base that outclasses them- this place is failing in every way. If you are a current customer and have received any written communication from them- you will know what I mean as you TRY to read it. They should be embarrassed, but I don't think they are even that smart. A very "Canned & Stale" environment and the products reflect that. The smart employees can't fix things because the inbred ones have Boyland's help in circumventing improvements. ("boy"land....just think about that name and what it probably indicates.....hmm..) Materials Packaging & Ash Grove's products are doomed to fail-Ash Grove, the parent company will eventually follow Materials Packaging, down the tubes.
