The Illinois River float corridor — stretching from Tenkiller Ferry Lake upstream through the scenic Ozark foothills of Adair and Cherokee Counties — draws thousands of canoeists, kayakers, and tubers each summer and supports a thriving community of river cabins, weekend retreats, and rural residential properties between Watts and Tahlequah.
