We went rafting with our 4 kids (age 4-11) and had a great experience. Dory was amazing with our kids and helped them feel safe. It made our experience so much more enjoyable. All the staff were wonderful and wed highly recommend rafting with them.

We had an amazing time on the Animas River! Our guide was super cool & knew what he was doing, Jesse Jones you rock dude! Jesse gave us a experience that we won’t soon forget & his raft jokes are killer! Had the best time & we definitely will be coming back to Maintain Waters Rafting! Love that safety & fun was the priority! 🤙🏻
