We had a great SAFE time and our guide, Trent, took excellent care of us, as did the rest of the staff. Would definitely raft with Outdoor Adventures again. There were NO beaver sharks or poisonous eels on our trip.

My husband, Tim or I had neither one been on on a white river rafting trip and had always wanted to go. So, we booked this trip in the off season. We were not guaranteed a water release and did not get one. But, we still got to experience some class III rapids and some drops. We had a great and exciting time. Our guide Chris was very knowledgable of the river and made the trip a blast!! Brook was great as well amd took some cool pictures of us while we were white water rafting...this is a must do if you want to experieince a lot of fun. We are already planning to go back during the regular season.

My family and I took the Lower River ride with Brando, from Outdoor Adventures on August 14th and had a wonderful time! We were traveling with a large group (18 people: 8 on the lower and 10 on the upper) and I must say the staff was patient and accommodating. Our guide was experienced in the water, which was reassuring since we had small kids (ages 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7). The children had a “ball”, especially in the bumpy areas. The ride on the lower river was very relaxing for the most part (so much so, my little one fell asleep)! :o) I must say I can’t wait until my little ones are bigger, so we can go on the upper river. The rest of my family, who went on the upper river told us how great it was. Overall I think this is a great experience and would definitely do it again. One thing I did find out is, because of Outdoor Adventures’ location, they have the longest lower river ride and the shortest upper river ride. As for the facilities, the changing areas and restrooms were not 5-star but considering they were “outside”, they did the job.

If you and your family enjoy the outdoors and don't mind getting a little wet give this a try. We did the rafting trip that had the level III and IV rapids. The trip was 1 1/2 hours and we had a great guide that made it all seem very easy. We did not flip our boat, or fall out of our boat. We had no previous rafting experience and took our 9 and 11 year old children, everyone felt this was a highlight of our vacation.
