The Pride of Oregon, a true paddlewheel boat, offers a one-of-a-kind eco-cruise experience. Unique in all of Northern Illinois, the Pride of Oregon draws Iowans over the Mississippi River to experience the Rock River on this charming and elegant vessel.
The 102-foot paddlewheel’s stature allows the Pride of Oregon to skim the surface of the water, barely stirring a wake. Captain Rich pilots the authentic, un-motorized paddlewheel through undeveloped land – past a state park and a flood plain. Passengers can book a seat on a 15-mile river cruise as sightseers exploring nature, and dine during the pleasure cruise.
Built as a replica of the famous Rosie O’Shea paddlewheel in 1989, the Pride of Oregon won its named in a local contest.

- 149 Passenger Capacity
