Are there places on the Deschutes river that rent self-guided tours? If so, where? How strong is the current?

No guided tours for the float down this section of the river. You just follow the other “floaters”. The river is safe, current slow and the experience absolutely wonderful!

My family took a guided Kayak trip through the Inn of 7 Mountains about 6 years ago. It was fun but rather tame. We noticed a 1/2 price midweek rafting ad while we were there so we went back and did that. It was a short but fun trip through the Big Eddy, the rapids in the John Wayne version of Rooster Cogburn. About 3 years ago, we rafted down the McKenzie River with Sunriver. That's more of a drive from Bend but well worth it! Beautiful and so much fun! You can also rent a kayak or tubes (super fun!) from Tumalo Falls Canoe and Kayak near Drake Park
