We have the Cadillac of tubes for tubing in Iowa! Float the river with Tubers Edge! Your comfort is important to us so we provide tubes with two cup or can holders, some have bottom netting, handles, durability and most importantly a head rest. If you come back with a flat tube or no tube you will be responsible for a $15 fee. Cooler tubes returned flat or not returned will incur a $25 fee.
1. Simply register / reserve (No walk-ins)
2. Show up with
- $20 per person
- everyone's i.d. (and do not forget it)
- river shoes (water shoes work best to wear in the river to protect feet during your float and when you get off the river)
- NO GLASS Bottles of any kind
- extra money in case you pop our tubes and your supplies.3. We supply your tube and shuttle you to the drop-off point on the fun bus. We rent a cooler tube that fits around 40-50 quart coolers for $5/cooler tube needed and we provide dry tub/trash tubs for your group. You should use as few coolers for your group as possible by sharing/condensing beverages.
Getting your requested launch times depend on availability and are not guaranteed so register / reserve early.
Bring shoes to wear in the river! Bring a tupperware container or plasctic baggie for cell phones, wallets, etc.
Bring a spare vehicle key and do not leave it in your car if you take your keys with you! We can hold on to your keys for you if you wish.
We have dry tubs availabe to tie to your tubes. At least one per group while available. No styrofoam or playmate coolers (40-50 quart cooler is what you need) The float is between 3 - 5 hours depending on river level and how often you stop (plenty of sandbars).
All tubers must float back to Tubers Edge no later than 6pm or you may be charged a late fee of $5/tuber! We need our staff back at the campgrounds...
MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not bring a bad attitude or think that we are here for you to be rude to if you don't like something or think that it should be any other way than what it is. We are here to have a good time with our customers, this is not a ride at a water park, it is the great outdoors with bugs, sand, maybe some mud but overall very fun if you make it that way. If you don't, please don't bother coming! We have the utmost respect for people with respect and I will have none for people who do not. Hope to see you there!
