Had a Groupon for this place. Took the time off from work to go tubing w/the kids! Called to make sure they were operating. Recording said they were. Drove over 2 hours to get there to find out they were closed due to a search & rescue on the river! Apparently a child drowned the day before and the police... More

This is a very safe trip for kids and old adults. My teenage boys were bored, they said once was enough, but for me it was relaxing . You will go during 4 or 5 hours in a tube down the river. Nice view, a lot of beautiful houses in the river side. Pay extra money for the tube with... More

The website made the amenities sound better than they were. We went expecting a building to change our clothes in. There was a tent on the lawn with plastic shower curtain dividers and dirt floor. There were only Port-A-Pots for toilets and the shower was four shower heads on a pole in cement. However, the staff was friendly and efficient.... More

Paying $7.00 for parking was annoying but we paid and overlooked that. Checking in was no problem but after that the staff was basically AWOL! We opted for tubes with backs and a net bottom. Everything other than the "standard" tube cost more to upgrade ie: connector straps, veggie meal, bottle of water. Don't consider doing this without these upgraded... More

It's beautiful on the river, but don't go tubing with this company.  Reading the reviews at least 2 other reviewers had the same experience as us - stand in line for 1 and 1/2 hours to get tubes and wait for bus (plenty of buses parked in their lot but clearly a shortage of drivers).  Float down the river for...

Lines everywhere! The whole thing was run by kids. On top of the $90 fee for the 2 of us we had to pay to park as well. We could not bring our own cooler/beer, what is the point of floating down a river if you can have a cold beer while you do it?! You can only eat their... More

Arrived at 1pmish, no line to purchase tickets, but then waited in a line for 90 minutes to get on the bus for a 5 minute ride to river - very annoying. River part was fun except for yes another 30 minute line to get hot dogs. Then another 60 minutes waiting in a line to get back on a... More

Friday before Labor Day we decided to go rafting on the Delaware. Checked the web and found a beautiful website with the promise of fun in the sun and relaxation. Well it wasn't fun and hardly relaxing at all. We arrived around 12:30 and the first thing they hit you with is a parking fee of 7 bucks. Parked the... More

Would not go back. They force you to pay for parking when you can park across the street in the state park lot. Everything is an upcharge, better tube, tie togethers, etc. Price was $35, plus parking charge and all they give you is an unconfortable tube, a hot dog or hamburger that you have to wait in line for...

Went with the kids, and another family. Kids ranged from 3 to 9 four total. The check in process is a pain. We had pre purchased which saved time but prepare to wait in line. Once processed you will grab a tube, and be stuffed into the bus for a short ride. You hit the river in 5 minutes and... More
