I'm putting together a float and we're going to put in at Round Spring. 

I see there's an upper, middle, and lower access. 

Does anyone want to give me any advice on which one to use? Or anybody have any preference for one access over another?

I was going to use the upper, because it looks like that one has a good parking lot/avoids the campground traffic -- that's about all I'm going on right now.

If you are wanting to avoid crowds, you can just put in at Current River State Park. No one is ever there, but it is developed enough and has a sweet cliff jump. This will also depend on your shuttling situation, where you are taking out and how long you are going to be on the river.

Round spring is locked for our put in. I'm not worried about crowds, really. I wasn't familiar with this specific access and thought someone would have words of wisdom about the situation. We'll be taking out at Jerktail. 

 

This image from the NPS website got me thinking about the three different accesses. Although, Google Maps makes me think that there's only two access points. . .

Ain't been there and likely won't get there, but your map shows a restroom at the upper landing and none at the other two. That's all I'd need to know, ...

I see restrooms at all three landings?

Others are in campgrounds,  I think.  I don't know how far away that is.

Thanks everybody. I'll be sure to report back :)

Thinking about doing that float in late September when the crowds start to thin a bit. Looking forward to your report

We were at Two Rivers recently, there is a nice 2 lane ramp and parking, pulled out at Powdermill, access there has some issues worth a shallow water crossing and some loose gravel. Walk in and see before you rush in.
