Tried this white water park a few times at different levels, 100-1500cfs.
NOT worth the drive. The features are too shallow for playboating and very flushy. Didn't even bother getting my half slice off the car either. The area was more of a jumble of rocks and overgrown weeds, bummer.
Also tried tubing this with family and friends...TUBING NOT ADVISED at any level! Too rocky! Had to rescue my friends kids, one caught his leg (up to his hip) between rocks and the other got his hand stuck between rocks and could not free himself. Thank goodness quick acting adults were near the children or it could have easily resulted in a tragedy.
Really bummed this isn't more family and boating friendly.
