Took my 8 year old daughter rafting and had a fantastic time. Huey was our guide and if we go back we will ask for him next time! Also, thank you to the pretty purple haired young lady behind the counter, you were SO helpful and patient with my daughter and her old man! Thanks again will be back!

Most importantly, MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR STEVE AS YOUR GUIDE!!! We booked the all day rafting tour and got so lucky to have Steve as our guide! He had 20+ years of experience and gave us so much information about the area, the rapids, and truly cares about giving visitors a great time. We had such a good time on the upper rapids that we asked to do it again in the afternoon - no regrets!!
