Talk about beginner’s luck!

It was their VERY first time eating at Smooth Rapids, their first time playing Singo… AND they walked away a WINNER! 🏆

They’re also new to town, so help us give them a huge Smooth Rapids welcome and congratulations! 💙

We love seeing new faces become part of the fun here on the river! Come join us for great food, great music, and maybe your lucky night too!

Last week we told you all about our NEW Black & Blue Shrimp Salad… but did you know you can also make it a Black & Blue Chicken Salad?

Pictured here is our Black & Blue Grilled Chicken Salad, and it is just as delicious!

Fresh greens, bold flavors, grilled chicken, and the perfect touch of blue cheese make this one a must-try from our seasonal menu!

Whether you’re craving shrimp or chicken, we’ve got the perfect salad waiting for you at Smooth Rapids!

We are open today from 11-3:00 for our Sunday seasonal hours.

See you on the river!

Unfortunately we’re still at flood stage. No river activities at Smooth Rapids Sunday 5/24. Although we missed Memorial Day Weekend, we needed every bit of this rain!

05/23/2026

Due to flood stage on the Collins and Barren Fork Rivers, we have made the difficult decision to cancel all river activities at Smooth Rapids for Saturday, May 23. Safety is top priority!
