Wilson was an awesome guide! We had a blast and being new to this activity, we felt safe as well, which was important. Wilson was personable and knowledgeable. The guide for the rest of our group was Stoney, they raved about him as well! We had people ages 7-71 in our group and everyone loved it!

This was my first time ever rafting and I had the time of my life. My guide was Kayla and she made it even better, very funny. I wil for sure be visiting Big Creek again, and hopefully Kayla is my guide again. :) #shashabeverly
