An independent travel agency in Orlando: Suite 502 plans your spring-run nights before any reservation
This page describes the office as an independent travel agency in Orlando: one desk east of downtown, where spring-run paddling trips are planned, priced and written up for the people who ask.
A request usually arrives through the form, which works at any hour. The inn and the outfitter are asked about the chosen nights, and when the request came in by noon Eastern, Monday to Saturday, a written answer goes out before sundown in Orlando that same day.
Six spring runs, each quoted in writing by departure
The office plans trips on six spring runs, from the Rainbow River down to the Chassahowitzka. For each dated departure you pick, it asks an inn near the water and a local outfitter whether those nights and a place on the water, either a guided paddle or a boat from that outfitter, are free. It then writes the plan.
A request sent by noon Eastern, Monday to Saturday, gets its first written answer before sundown in Orlando that day; a later or Sunday request gets one before sundown on the next day the office writes. The full quote follows once the inn and the outfitter have both replied for those exact nights. It names the inn and the outfitter and quotes the cancellation and refund terms of the inn, the outfitter and the park. Only after you say yes in writing does the office ask them to hold the nights and the launch, and travelers then settle each charge with the inn, the outfitter and the park directly.
The room on East Colonial Drive
The desk sits in Suite 502 at 1011 E Colonial Dr, east of downtown Orlando. From there the nearest water, Wekiva and Rock Springs Run, is about 30 minutes by car, and the farthest, the Ichetucknee, takes close to three hours to reach the river.
Visits happen by arrangement only. The phone is answered on weekdays during the hours printed on this page.

Commission comes from the inn and the outfitter
When a traveler stays at an inn or goes out with an outfitter from a written quote, that inn or outfitter pays the office a commission. Travelers pay the inn, the outfitter and the park directly, and no payment is taken on this website.
Because the money for rooms, boats and park entry goes straight to the people who provide them, the charges in a quote are the ones those providers set.
