A GREAT FAMILY EXPERIENCE ON THE RIVER!

We had a party of 8 on Sunday and enjoyed the day relaxing on tubes floating down the river. The people checking us in were extremely friendly and the bus driver was funny and got us to drop off area in a great mood. All around a great experience at the White River Canoe Company. We plan on going a few more time this summer.

Being on the water with great friends and the weather was gorgeous! We had a picnic on the way. Such a great activity!

We had a great time tubing here! The tubes have backs and cup holders and are very roomy. They have a sandy spot where you can take a break from tubing and swim for a bit and we found a lot of big, shiny shells in the river. The nature surrounding the river is beautiful and it was both relaxing and fun. I definitely recommend this place!!

We booked four tubes and a cooler tube for a trip down the White River. We all had an awesome time, and are excited to come back and do it again soon. The staff was very kind and provided clear directions.

Absolutely a great time no matter what age. Everything went as planned, trip started on time and the equipment was well maintained. It didn’t hurt that the weather cooperated for once. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. We will be back soon!

I try to make an annual trip to the White River Canoe company. It has been fun to see this company grow over the years and I look forward to many trips to come. The rusty oar trip is great for beginners!
