Still closed as of May 24th 2025. We floated from the Mayo Beach put-in just below Anglin Mill and floated to the 220 Business bridge. It took us just under 4.5 hours paddling at a leisurely pace. The float was great. Lots of wildlife along the way. My star rating means nothing for the Jacobs Creek Batteau landing, or the trip. Just wanted to let folks know that Jacobs Creek Batteau is still closed and give an optional trip suggestion.
