The Kickapoo is the highlight of the Reserve and best seen from a canoe. The entire section from bridge 1 in Ontario to Bridge 19 in La Farge is beautiful but upper section to about bridge 5 can be crowded on weekends with tubers and paddlers. You can avoid the crowds by starting early, paddling during weekdays or starting lower. The Reserve has many campsites on the river and many of them are mowed grass despite being very private and secluded from the roads. The entire paddle time is about 12 hours which we divided into 3 days and 2 campsites with time for exploring. The Reserve is cheap ($10/night camping for up to 10 people) so support the locals with a pre or post visit meal. Ontario has a great cafe and the Rockton Tavern is a fun and sometime rowdy time.
