We had an amazing time snow tubing at River Riders! Two neighborhood families went together with elementary-aged kids of varying abilities, and every single person was able to participate and have fun. Even the adults had a blast. We rented a fire pit, roasted s’mores, and enjoyed hot chocolate, which made the experience even better. The facility was clean (including the bathrooms), and even though it was busy, the lines moved quickly and everything was very well organized and streamlined. Highly recommend for families and groups!

We had the Zipline Canopy Tour a few weeks ago as a student field trip, and it was amazing experience - especially the last zipline over the water! We had so much fun and felt completely safe with all the gear and guide provided. Our group was quite large and had to be separated into smaller groups, but we still felt connected and enjoyed together. The staff were very supportive and helpful. They made the students feel comfortable, confident, excited to jump.
Thank you, River Riders, especially, Claire, Nick and your team.

An amazing experience on the water.
I recently tried the whitewater tubing adventure with River Riders and chose the larger individual tube with a bottom. They give you colored wristbands depending on what type of experience you pay for between group, individual tube or sit inside tubes (like the one I took). The trip lasted about 2.5 hours and was both scary and exciting — a real mix of adrenaline and fun. You are given a safety briefing and your life jacket before boarding the bus. The bus takes you to the drop in point where our tube and paddles were provided and then you are on your way. It’s definitely not just a float; the rapids require upper body strength and endurance, so be prepared for a workout. A few suggestions: bring only gear that can get wet, apply plenty of sunscreen, stay hydrated and bring a clear bag for your phone (if you want pictures or music). The ride itself is enjoyable, but the exit point could use improvement. Staff told us to look for a waterfall before the green bridge, but the waterfall isn’t visible from the water, and there’s no clear signage marking the takeout area. That added some stress to the finish of an otherwise great experience. Once you arrive there you have to hike your equipment up the trail to the place where the bus pickles you up. Overall, I’d recommend this for adventurous types who are ready for both fun and challenge.

Amazing!
Did the zipline canopy tour and kayaking on the water with my 12 year old son, we had a great time, fun, outdoors bonding!
Great staff , very happy, hospitable and lots of jokes (dad jokes)
Very recommended.
The only drawback is it's a bit over priced, I would say it should be 20-25% less expensive

What a GREAT few days of camping ! Our last outing for the season. The campground was cheerful (Christmas lights that made you smile ) and the camp host Petey went above what we are used to. He took the time to talk with us and the conversations lead into how the campground has evolved. Being from this area we loved hearing about the growth. On his own time he showed us where to hike and bike when we return. One of the best moments ….when Petey showed us where they moved the cabins and the view was breathtaking. Yes, the trains do run throughout the day and night but never bothered us. The river , geese, relaxation, feeling safe, completely over rides a little train noise. We went to see the Christmas Lights as we wrapped up our stay. BEAUTIFUL!
There are two campgrounds in this area , we have found our new “GO TO” for sure.
Wondering ? Is this year round camping ? I forgot to ask the camp host.
