We fished the Curtoise Creek in this CA. After about three hours, my 8 year old had caught and released 23 fish. I had caught and released 21 fish, including the biggest, which was a 22" long-nose Gar. The trail along the creek bluffs was amazing (see photos).

Great float experience. Campgrounds were well maintained with easy access. Main lodge had all the necessities and more available for purchase. Food delivery to your campsite is available. I recommend placing your order before the float, waiting until after can be hectic. Family friendly as well.

We always have a fun and memorable time down at the Huzzah! The employees are the best! Beautiful scenery and good times. Their prices have gone up in the last few years, but this is just a sign of the times. We can’t wait to go back!
