Amazing company! The raft guides are extremely helpful and so easy going. Hayden was our raft guide and she was super funny and engaging which made our experience so much better. I would definitely go again! Highly recommend bringing an extra pair of clothes to change into once you’re done. You have to leave belongings at their base because you get driven up to a start point and then raft back down. They have lockers on site or you can leave it in your car (they have parking on site) You can bring a go pro or waterproof camera if you’d like (I’d also recommend if you want to capture some awesome moments)

This place is awesome!! We went on a rainy day and it made the experience that much more impressive. Our guide, Allen, was very knowledgeable and I was confident he would get us through some class 3 and 4 rapids. This is the perfect experience for everyone. It has calm waters and exciting rapids that weren’t too difficult but a lot of fun.

Visited with family from South Florida and we all enjoyed it! We originally were going to choose Wild water rafting, since there are so many options that offer rafting in pigeon river but they had no availability so SMO was next and we had a lot of fun. The bigger kids and adults did the upper river, it can be a bit scary if is your first time or if you are someone who is not really an outdoorsy person, but the rafting is guided all through out, you take a bus from their main location then it is about a 10 min ride along with about maybe 40 or so people with you to the river and then you get into the raft and the guide explains all the different types of paddling moves, you raft back to the main location. I would recommend having smaller kids do the lower river, it is not scary at all does not require them to do any paddling. My 6 yr and 3 year old enjoyed it. Also Don't forget to tip the guide! I had to hunt mine down and could not find him so i left his tip at the tipping box in the gift store.

Neither my husband nor I had ever whitewater rafted before, and we chose the adventure option, 6.5 miles of river that included Class III & IV rapids. Our guide was DJ and he was outstanding!! We always felt safe but still had plenty of thrilling moments. He encouraged our group to paddle with oomph, and we got to experience some unique moments that other boats didn't get to experience (I think it was called surfing). DJ also recommended a place along the river to taste Moonshine; we stopped on our way back to our campsite and that was so fun and also contributed to our unforgettable Appalachia trip. This company partners with CLIMBWORKS and we took advantage of the zipline/whitewater rafting deal, and it was totally worth it.

Cannot say enough positive things about this place. From the get go, the guy we spoke with on the phone was SUPER kind. We got there and every staff member we encountered was dynamic, professional, knowledgeable, and kind. Our raft leader made the entire process so enjoyable by telling us what to expect before we began and communicating every step of the way. Would HIGHLY recommend
