Me and my wife went here as part of our anniversary celebration and we had a great time! The water was pretty low in spots on our trip, but there is nothing anyone could have done about that! The reservation & check in was easy, the staff members were kind, the man who drove us to start our trip told us the whole rundown of the river to help us have the best trip, and did all of the kayak pulling for us! Great trip!
This was the first time we ever used a canoe so I told the young man helping us launch and he was very nice and gave us some tips. All employees were nice from check in, bus driver, launchers, and landers. We felt safe and would definitely do this again! There were a couple other larger groups that floated. They hooked together in their own large circles with cooler floats in the middle. That would be fun for groups. Great experience and highly recommend.
Friendly staff and a great trip. My 13 year old daughter and I did the Rusty Oar trip. We have canoed before, but we are no experts. It was a perfect day. It took us about 4 hours, 15 minutes with little actual paddling, just steering. We stopped for lunch along the way and found cool shells. We also stopped at Potters Bridge to explore and use the facilities. We saw tons of wildlife - geese, ducks, fish, turtles, squirrels and one snake. We got lots of sun and had a wonderful time! The only down side to this location is the water quality that doesn't lend itself to swimming as we do love to cool off in the water on such excursions. This is just one tiny drawback to an otherwise perfect experience.
Place was Awesome!!! Staff was friendly and helpful went above and beyond to help with our kayaks. Will definitely be back next year. There’s a cover bridge that you stop at for bathroom break and eat lunch.
We had a group of 10 and it was a great day. Very relaxing! We took a large cooler that fit perfectly. It was a 72qt and it fit very snug. We got the straps to link all of the tubes. I think you can avoid this cost by just using your life vest. The current was good. The water Depth was about 1ft to 7ft. Everything seemed to be well organized and the staff was easy to work with. The bus driver did a great job. She told jokes and pointed out locations along the drive up to the bridge drop off. Approximately 15 min drive up. Overall I would recommend this company. This is a very relaxing day for the costs and great memories. Bring sun screen and water. It took us around 4 1/2 hours to make it.
PROFIT BEFORE PEOPLE!! This company is so disgusting and money hungry!! My teenage child made us a reservation in the wrong city and as soon as she realized it contacted to cancel the same day BEFORE the reservation. On top of that it started pouring rain but they refuse to offer a refund or any kind of makeup day or anything after telling us that day that I would be refunded in 8-10 business days. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! They say that "their records" show it was after the time of the reservation although we have proof otherwise. They refused to accommodate me in any way at all. It doesn’t surprise me though in this area where people only care about money and couldn’t care less about humanity and people’s happiness or well being. It really says so much about companies like that. PROFIT BEFORE PEOPLE
We did the campground to River Rd trip. The first third of the trip was awesome. It was quiet and serene, with all kinds of birds and other wildlife. The second half, after the portage, was packed full of large groups of tubers that were drunk and obnoxious. We had to navigate our way through and around them, even dragging our kayak around shallow areas while they stayed in their spot screaming and getting more hammered by the minute. An overall horrible experience. The amount of tubes on the river was ridiculous and needs to be kept in check. If you’re looking for a fun kayaking trip, then this is not your spot. If you want to get stupid drunk and spend your day surrounded by a few hundred obnoxious idiots, then this is the place for you.
