The river rafting 1/2 day motor trip is by far the best experience and value for your money. The tepee is a unqiue sleeping opportunity so do try it. The down side of this resort is the crowds. We were booked the same time as a school group and they overtook the property... we weren't able to use the firepit... More

Rafting: My friend and I had tickets to go river rafting. Great trip down the river and our guide (Willis) kept it interesting. We made the decision to stay over for the fun of it and chose the Caddy Shack. The most recent email confirmation confirmed that we would be staying in a Teepee. I called back to confirm that...

First let me start by saying that my husband and I happened upon this place when we were staying up the road at the B.C. Provincial Park at Skihist with our trailer. We were headed to Lytton for dinner after a long road trip from Alberta on our way home to Seattle when I happened to spy their quaint restaurant... More

My son (10 year old) and I decided to take the trip to Kumsheen Resort to see what excitement we could find and the power rafting day trip did not disappoint! Totally worth the drive. Our guide Steve was great and the thrills were non-stop. All the staff was friendly and the food was amazing! Alison Steffler, Kamloops BC

I did the full day paddle raft trip on the Thompson with river guide Ryan on Friday, August 31st. I have had several experiences rafting the Thompson and Fraser, but this was the best ever. Ryan was brilliant at his job - a great team leader who was funny and showed us all a thrilling time on the river. I... More

The dinner was supreme gourmet and the gardens and flowers everywhere were spectacular!!! The cabin was cozy and beds were comfortable!! You share a communal washroom but that didnt... More

My friend decided to organize a rafting trip with 10 other people. I was reluctant to go because I had to work the next morning but figured "hey, what the hell". Honestly, it was one of the greatest decisions I've made to date. I had never gone river rafting before and was nervous about it. We did the full day... More

My wife and I had an awesome experience yesterday on the Thompson River with Kumsheen Rafting Resort. The scenery was fantastic and the hits on the big waves made this an unforgettable experience. In spite of all the big water action, we felt safe at all times. We're definitely going again...and again. Rod Bambauer

I have rafted at other places in BC and internationally, but I've never had such a fun time as at Kumsheen. The resort location is stunning, the cabins are cute, the staff are wonderful, and the river is..."epic"! As our guide said: "Welcome to the best day of your summer!"
