SAVE THE DATE FOR THE 2023 MCKENZIE RIVER DRIFT BOAT FESTIVAL!

The 2023 McKenzie River Drift Boat Festival is scheduled for Saturday, April 22, from 10:00 to 4:00 at Eagle Rock Lodge. The event is a fun day with like-minded folks who are interested in or are obsessed with drift boats and river dories. Come and join the fun!

A few event details:

  • For those planning to bring a boat to the show please arrive early enough (aprx.9:00 am-ish) so that your drift boat can get a courtesy tow from the parking area to the riverfront grounds.

  • If you plan to arrive by the river, plan to arrive by 10:00am.

  • Those who are interested in joining an informal flotilla to Eagle Rock should plan to launch from Finn Rock at 9:00. Plan to arrive at Eagle Rock Lodge at or around 10.

  • Boats can be pulled from the river and parked on the grounds for the Festival and then re-launched for the takeout one-half mile downstream at Silver Creek landing. Please pre-arrange your shuttles.

  • There is no pre-registration or fee for showing your boats.
