Whitewater Adventures

Wow, what a fabulous experience! I love it when you just have to show up and the rest of the experience is taken care of for you, especially when it comes to an outdoor adventure. There was a beautiful space along the river to camp and play in between delicious meals, rafting adventures, and even a disco party! The mix of your own adventure and suggested activities with some added. Comfort was an absolute delight. Still smiling from a great weekend with friends and family.

We had an amazing time. Mark did a great job. The food was great. The rafting was great for the whole family exciting and challenging

This trip was the best trip I've ever had. From the moment we got on the bus to the moment I went home I don't think I ever stop smiling. The Rapids were awesome, The food was good, The entertainment was fun. I made friends that up till this day I still talk to you and go camping with. I took this trip because I just got injured at work and was getting ready to have to medically retire from a 17 year career. I needed to find happiness again, and I needed to find who was without this career. When I got home from this trip, I felt happier. I felt connected to nature again. The experience actually helped me figure out what I was going to do next to My Life. When I got home, I started my own business and have been living the dream since then. I highly suggest this trip if you wanna get out of your head and have nothing but fun

I had an absolute blast on my trip with Whitewater Adventures! The weather was perfect, and the water conditions were fantastic, making for an unforgettable experience. Mark, the owner, was incredibly hospitable and took great care of our group from start to finish.

This time, I stayed in one of their VIP safari tents, which was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for 4-5 people. It was the perfect spot to relax after an exciting day on the river.

I can't wait to come back next year! Whitewater Adventures never disappoints. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great outdoor adventure!

I've rafted with this company since the 90's and am so grateful to finally go back and have a mini reunion there with all our kids and their loved ones! We went on July 5-7th for the VIP Friday night experience, a first for me and then rafting Saturday and Sunday! It was an absolute blast!! So nice to be together with our family, talking around the tables for breakfast, appetizers and dinner and then singing and talking at our campsite. Disco in the forest is still Awesome and upgraded with the black lights and bubbles. Stars for days, relaxing sound of the river and cooling off whenever we wanted with our water access area on the river at camp. Mark hasn't changed, still full of energy, valuable history and heaps of hospitality! So glad to be there with him at WWA and look forward to going again every year as a tradition. Six of our party of eight came in from out of state, so the VIP Camping and having the ability to rent a tent, with sleeping pads and chairs included was so convenient!! Looking forward to getting friends and family up to raft together, it was perfect!

Be prepared for a full day on Saturday and/or Sunday - check in, gear loading (if camping), bus ride, safety briefing, rafting, water gun fights on the river, stop to enjoy lunch at your leisure, raft to campground take out. One day trippers bus ride back to cars, multiple days, set up camp, appetizers served with live music aloha attire, then relax until dinner served (steak or chicken, potatoes, corn, pasta, Oreos and milk for dessert), little rest and get ready for the disco under the stars! You can go single or two day trips or make it a VIP weekend coming in Friday night. All options are amazing and catered to whatever works for your schedule! Large group organizers can work with the administrators really early through email. Thank you Mark and WWA crew for an absolute blast!!! So love your hospitality and humor, all while keeping us safe and helping us make memories!!

15 years my husband has been rafting this river! Now our kids love it!! Thanks Mark and family!! Very family friendly great food and beautiful spot on the river.

Let me start by saying we stayed at Paddle Ridge so we received a 10% discount, that was nice!
I booked my 19 year olds over the phone, no issues. I was nervous and wanted to check things out and told the lady that. When we arrived there, I told the staff that I had called and was nervous and immediately one of the staff said "Oh, are you Janice? We spoke earlier when you called." That immediately put me more at ease. Her reassurance was all I needed.

The ONLY complaint I had, was that the wets suits we wore were distributed by male guides, who clearly cannot judge female sizes, no fault of their own. I wish they would have allowed us to request what we thought would be our size. I am a large woman 5'11" and weigh 240#'s, thank goodness I've lost 40#'s so far. Anyway, one guide handed me a wet suit, I asked if he thought it would fit because it looked small. He said "Yes, absolutely." I could not get it on. I'd my kids were not with me to go get me another, I would not have gone. My son's suit was way too small as well, he is 6'6". I got another suit, still too small. By this time, I am in tears. Yet again, we get another suit and, alas, this one fits! Maybe to help resolve this issue, ask people the size that they normally wear and let them size up or down.

Our guide, Wes, was amazing. He was fun, knowledgable and aware. He talked with the kiddos on the raft as well as the adults. He gave me a rope to hold onto as I was still terrified. I had rafted once before and it was a bad experience so I am glad I went again because it was well worth it!!!

Wes, you need to post your Venmo or PayPal #'s for tips like the other guides.

This experience is amazing! The food is good, the river is beautiful, and the people are friendly. I've been here 2 years in a row now and will definitely continue to go annually. Rafting here is really fun and having food and activities included is perfect. I definitely recommend going here!

I don't think I have ever left a review on this site, but this one felt warranted.

Yet another great trip in the books. From the moment we stepped into camp Mark (owner)and his crew took care of us. From food to entertainment to jokes camp and crew was amazing.
The day was to be 110+ degrees so the owner promptly moved us to the shade at camp to give a safety talk about the river. It was quite extensive, and he took it very seriously. He went over the gear for the day, how to paddle, what to do if you flipped and most importantly talked about the rivers layout and what to do in case of an emergency. All directions were clear, and all questions were answered that were asked. Mark has clearly been doing this for a while and takes this portion of the day very seriously as he asks for complete silence during this portion of the day, so that everyone gets the directions.
Now off to the rafting. Once to the put in after a short drive into the canyon you receive a lunch to take with you and are given a raft that will fit the size of your group and its off to the river. Upon showing up to the put in there is a handful of crew members there to help you down to the river. They have clearly been working all morning to get boats pumped up and ready for you.
The river is just warm enough to be comfortable and just cool enough to cool you off. My girlfriend and I jumped in a boat together and headed down stream. The river seems like it was made for this type of "no guide" rafting as it progressively gets more difficult as you move down river, giving you a chance to warm up. The cool part about the trip is that whenever I had to question which way to go there was an employee on a rock to tell me where to go. We paddled and swam and laid under the willow trees and napped throughout the day. The last rapid of the day was the largest......probably the only true class III- of the day. There were several employees there to tell you which way to go. When we were pulled over on the shore, I even had one employee pump my boat As with any adventure in nature it comes with risks, and I did see some people fall out and bump around a bit. There were employees there to help them to shore. All parties I saw fall out were laughing once they were on shore and continued with a smile. The stories of the day could be heard echoing through camp accompanied by laughter. Pretty amazing day.
At the takeout we didn't lift a finger. The employees told us to relax and go get comfortable. They took our boats and paddles and loaded them back into the trailer to prepare them for the next day.
After changing and opening a beer, I sat in the shade and sat at the river's edge. There was a live guitar player playing for nearly 2 hours as appetizers were laid out and the guests all mingled. Dinner was amazing and definitely all you could eat Steak/Chicken/potatoes/ corn/salad. During dinner we were treated to a performance by a family of traditional Hawaiian dancers. Nice surprise.
When the sun went down, we were treated to an amazing family style dance parties complete with a laser show, bubbles, and disco lights. It was awesome.
Cool part is that when the show was over people kind of hang around and talk and have a good time but at 47 years old, I was ready for bed. I had no problems going to bed as the people were super respectful and no more music was played.
Am I getting old?
I was a bit sore the next day, but any good adventure comes with those bumps and bruises. To me that's the sign of a day well spent. We set off for round two on the river.
We are already planning our next trip. Probably this year. I can't wait to throw my 13- and 15-year-old kids in the boat alone to teach them how to work together. A little brother sister teamwork is going to be great for them as a Family. Thank you Mark and your crew. Looking forward to the next time.

I went here as part of a bigger group and it was great! This was my first time rafting and this place made it an unforgettable experience. Firstly our campsite had a perfect mix of sun and shade, and was just a short walk from the river. They have you park a ways away and shuttle everyone in, which while a little inconvenient, it is really nice not having everyone's cars all over the place. They provided 3 meals a day plus appetizers around 5-6, all of which were awesome. The rafting itself was great. The raft felt very safe, and Whitewater Adventure had employees throughout the river to ensure that everyone stays safe and on track. They provided lunch which was pretty good and it was nice to not have to worry about lunch for the weekend. All together I had an amazing time, and so did everyone else in my group!
