My fiance' and I went for a weekend getaway and decided to go rafting with Cascade. Not knowing any reviews we definitely lucked up. Our guide Ryan had us doing spins in the middle of the river and I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. It was a BLAST! I would recommend this adventure to anyone...but the people at Cascade made you feel like one of them. We plan on going back around 4 times a summer now. Thank you!!!!

This company is a mom and pop run business. They are friendly and very helpful. We have used this same company 2 times now. It is a lot cheaper than the other rafting companies on the Ocoee. If you book on line you can get a ticket for $29 per person. We have used 3 other rafting companies in the past, paying a lot more for tickets. The lower river trip is the same regardless of who you use. The guides are friendly and make sure you are comfortable and safe. I recommend this company regardless of how many people you are rafting with. We will be using them again next year for our summer rafting adventure.

This company did a great job taking my group on our first white water rafting trip. From the time we walked in the door to the time we left, we felt as though we were top priority. Kaleb, our guide, was absolutely amazing. He went out of his way to make us all feel safe while still providing an exciting trip. Safety instructions were provided prior and during the trip. We even practiced pulling each other back into the boat in a calm area of the water. I have a lot of confidence in this company. I felt we had a lot more fun that some of the larger companies who were constantly having to wait on their other boats before moving up the river. Also, we did the full river so lunch was provided for us at the beginning of the middle Ocoee. This was included in our original fee. Great experience! Will definitely come back to this company if we are ever in this area of the country again!

Please do not overlook this outfitter when planning a trip down the Ocoee. They are a small family run business, not a large corporate firm. The price point was way below the competitors and you are not paying for a lot of frills, just adrenaline packed excitement. When we checked in we were greeted warmly and then introduced to our guide Lauren. She is a tiny little girl that does not fit the mold of any whitewater guide I have ever met. Boy, was I wrong. She was expert in her safety instructions and gave us a thrilling, safe ride down the river. We took our time as many of the other companies raced past us. She had lots of local historical knowledge as well as recommendation for local attractions after our trip. I highly recommend this company for you whitewater adventure.

You have to do this at least once in your life. Two and a half hours of nonstop rapids. This outfitter isn't one of the most flashy ones you'll notice in Ocoee, but I assure you, everything about this outfitter is top notch. Everyone was friendly and helpful at answering questions about our trip. Our guide, Jenny, was a pleasure to travel with on this trip. Gave us instructions on where to sit, what to expect and what to do. Jenny would tell us in advance of the rapid we were approaching and what to expect. Give Cascade a chance to be your guide to an Ocoee River Rafting trip. You will not be disappointed.

I took my family on a rafting experience and I was so nervous because my family isn't very athletic/water people. I just wanted them to have a fun time doing something different. I can not say enough good things about this company! Dakota (guide) went above and beyond to make sure my mother and aunt had a SAFE and fun time; checking in on them several times. Kip, the owner, was funny and made sure that every need was met. The facility is clean and organized and the small family feel makes you feel a part of the team. TAKE THIS ADVICE: Go with Cascade Outdoors if you want to have a safe, fun time and not lost in the big company feel.

Without a doubt Cascade is the best place to to go if you're rafting the Ocoee. I've been rafting with other companies and Cascade is the top of the line. They love what they do and it shows from the owner, Kip, to the front desk , Rachel, to the bus driver, April and especially the raft guides (ask for Caleb) who's number one goal is for you to have a safe, great time!

My friends and I used Cascade on our recent trip to the Ocoee River. The staff was excellent and our guides were great. We had a great trip and our guide Bryson was very cool. He not only got us down the river without falling out, but he also showed us a lot of cool stuff and let us do a lot of extra fun stuff that most of the other guide company's didn't allow their customers. The facilities were clean and the trip was worth every penny. I would suggest the full river trip so you don't miss anything. The lunch provided with the full river trip was better than expected also. I will definitely use this company again!

Really glad we found Cascade. Our guide was Israel and he was great! Will definitely go with them again.

Would like to express my appreciation for a great experience on the Ocoee for both myself and my other boat mates. Ryan, our guide, was great. He provided thorough safety instructions before we left. He seemed to take extra time with us at some of the highlights to give us a more complete experience. Would definitely recommend him. Price was reasonable and staff was friendly and helpful.

Dude...what can you say other than UH-MAZING! This was the first time we've ventured down the Ocoee River but i can guarantee it won't be the last. Especially with Cascade Outdoors. Our guide, L.B., did an amazing job. She kept us right side up, gave clear and concise instructions, warned us what to do ahead of time and we were even able to help an almost drowned kayaker. They are a smaller outfit that delivers way better than a bigger one. If you're looking to go whitewater rafting, look no futher!

I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate the staff at Cascade Outdoors. They are an awesome group of people!! They go completely out of their way to make sure you have an experience on the Ocoee that makes you want to come back time after time (from booking the trip to floating down the Ocoee). Their guides have the utmost experience on the water, not only on the Ocoee but all over the country for some of them which makes you feel much safer whether it's your first time or 15th time, swimmer or non-swimmer. They also provide you with some important details of the river and surrounding area. They make the trip fun & interesting. All the guides are so friendly you'd think they were one of us and not just somebody being paid to take you down the river. I just returned from my third trip with Cascade along with 49 other people (some who were 1st timers) and we all can't wait to go back. And, when we do, we will be booking with them again. You can't be their prices or their hospitality! They played a big part in my group's "Best Memories of a Lifetime" category. Thanks Cascade Outdoors. You've completely out done yourselves once again!!
