LOVED MY EXPERIENCE & CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK!!! This is in reply to Teresa's review below. I went on this 3 day - camping / kayaking (by choice) trip. I can't tell you how much FUN and what GREAT guides we had that weekend. I don't know what trip Teresa was on because I didn't experience ANY of what she was stating. The guides worked their tail off trying to give us the best experience possible. Kaya and Kaylee were very personable and super friendly. When they weren't in the kitchen making us food and cleaning up, they were sitting down with us chatting or playing games with us. What some don't realize is it takes work to put on such a good trip. Kaylee even downloaded music of our choice so we can enjoy it on the trip. As for Teresa's statement of being singled out with being sent on a Kayak the 3 days, this was by CHOICE. I have already been on the river 2 other times this summer and I received the opportunity to try Kayaking the river since I am a strong paddler. I loved it SO VERY MUCH that I wanted to continue the next 2 days. Kaya saw i was doing well on the kayak and I had been given the opportunity to kayak class 3 rapids which was AMAZING by the way. So much that I wanted to continue. I NEVER once felt singled out, I also convinced one of the other members of our group to try out the kayak and he Loved it just as much and said he was happy to have done it and had the experience himself. The whole trip, most of the group kept re-iterating how they DID NOT want to fall out of the raft and wanted it to be a little easier of a paddle in the rapids. Kaya did EXACTLY what they were asking. It was fun, we got wet but we were safe and secure and he didn't play it safely boring in my opinion. He appeased to what the customers were asking. That's also why i went in the Kayak, I didn't mind having the chance to fall out and get into it with the water & waves. I like a more wilder trip then most want. I was so happy to meet such friendly Guides Kaya and Kaylee, they are my kind of people.. friendly, fun, outgoing and just enjoy life and super positive. I think it is great that we can make friends outside of these adventures and not at all Un-appropriate. Isn't that what life is about? When we arrived back from our trip, there was a lot going on and another Big group was just about to arrive which Kaya nicely explained to us. He mentioned that they have to park where we last time pulled in so they can get packed up and loaded just as we did. I then offered to him that we can easily take our dry bags literally across the street (not a far trek at all) to unpack to make things easier and smoother for all parties. I don't think it was much more work then it was made out to be. Ultimately... the Kaylee and Kaya did everything right! So much that I am going back again and bringing a group of my friends for another round of fun.
