Here's what some of our guests are saying about their trips with
River Recreation...
Don, We just wanted to thank you for the great time on the water. Our guide, Emily, was fantastic, and took real good care of us. Please extend to her our thanks as well. Looking forward to taking the White Salmon in a few months. Keep me posted on the conditions for that water fall. Again, thanks for the great trip, food and hospitality, as always!!!

Greetings, River Recreation Folk This past Saturday, my friend (Jon) and I had an incredible river rafting experience because of the professional expertise, kindly assistance and off-the-wall humor gifted to us by your guide, Trash Talkin' Tony. This trip was not only a 3-hour rafting experience, it actually taught me things personally that will change my life forever -- for the better. Sometimes we're unaware of the powerful impact an experience, or a person (and in this case, our guide) leaves on us until after the fact. When the adrenaline has calmed down, when you have a quite time to reflect, when you notice that as the hours and days move along and it becomes apparent that you have been changed. Without sounding too hokey, I want to pass along to you and to our wonderful guide a warm and sincere "Thank you," deepest appreciation, and one of "Mary's" smirks to Tony (he'll understand!!) Thank you, again.
"Just wanted to thank you once again for a great time on the Wenatchee. Our group had
a great time and could not say enough good things about the trip. As a matter of fact,
they all commented on what nice people you are. Some people are coming again on future
trips and want to request Rob, Emily., and Joseph for guides."
"This trip meant a lot to me since I see most of these people everyday. Needless to say,
I was a little nervous about how it would all go. I am forever grateful to all of you for
being such awesome river guides. We plan on doing the Methow with you guys again next May.
Have a great season and thanks again for a great weekend."

"I wanted to extend a very big thanks for a great trip. Since I am in a wheelchair and love
the sport you guys made me feel very comfortable and safe. The seating adaptation that the
guides arranged worked well. I wanted to also make a special mention of
"Big Al". His
professional and fun approach to the float was what made it so enjoyable. We were a ragtag
group and he made sure we all got some action and had some fun. Much kudos to you Al!
I expect an invite to the next big BBQ at your place! You have our #'s!! Also, Joseph and
TJ! Thanks for making Saturday night at the Post Office a complete and utter kick in
the pants! We all needed to cut loose for a change! I will expect to see some pictures
soon and will send them to you. Thanks Again!"

"We wanted to say Thank You for the wonderful trip we had. Our wonderful guide Gabe made the
trip worth a million bucks. He tested our limits, and I feel we were able to rise to the
challenge. We are looking forward to returning to do the
Klickitat
and the
White Salmon. Hopefully Gabe will be our guide again. Thank You!!!"

"I just wanted to write and thank you once again for the amazing trip
we had on Sunday. We all had such a wonderful time on the
Wenatchee River. We were especially happy with our guide, Don.
My mother commented on his safety speech, she said that he seemed so confident in that
speech that it made her feel even safer in the boat. Don made the trip very enjoyable for
all us. He made sure we all had fun. I also liked how he pushed our strength, and bravery
with taking through "Suffocator". It felt great to know we went through it, and
most of all, that we didn't flip our boat. It was also nice to hear all of his stories,
and to see how much he knew about the river, and the different things going on around it.
The whole trip was great, but having the guide we did, it just added to the whole day.
Thank you once again for the unbelievable day. We look forward to trying it once
again, hopefully on the
Methow."

"I just wanted to thank you guys for the best weekend I've had this year. The rivers
were great and the guides were professional but, more importantly, FUN! I can't remember
when I've ever drank so much river water! The rush that I got from going over the rapids
to being able to ride on the bow of the raft while going over the rapids is something that
I will not forget for a long, long time! Ben was a blast
on both days! His stories and experiences on these rivers were a treat to hear. Thank you
all so much for making us feel welcome and doing such a great job!"
- Mark with Events and Adventures
"I want to thank you again for a wonderful experience on the
Nooksack River. The kids all raved about the trip and want to go
again. Everyone was impressed and appreciated the guide's mastery of our vessel. The kids
have even gone so far as to suggest that the next time we raft we find out where our
favorite guide is working as choose that run."
- Steve at the FAA
"On behalf of my wife and I, Heather, Dave, Sean
and Sara, we just wanted to say thanks. Dan did a good
job of guiding our raft down the
Methow last sat. We all really
enjoyed it. Dan made it fun, safe and enjoyable. My wife and I really enjoyed the
'wheelies' and dog piling in the front of the raft while cruizing through the rapids. We
also enjoyed Dan's company at our camp that night. We are looking forward to booking our
third rafting trip with River Recreation and Dan in the future. Thanks again."
- Mike and Tammy
"My friends and I had a GREAT Memorial Day weekend in Eastern Washington, where we
rafted the
Methow with your company. We all thoroughly enjoyed
the trip and felt you should know we had a terrific guide. Matt
made the experience enjoyable and memorable. Five of the seven of us had never been on a
rafting trip before and our guide made addicts out of all of us. It was great to have a
guide who was sensitive to the needs of first time rafters. We can't wait to take our next
trip with River Recreation."
