First Timers! We coming back. - All 6 of us had a blast! Especially, my wife, she was so afraid and our guide Wesley took care of her. Now she wants to go back again with the older children.

Jon Hall rocks! Rafting with OAR - 6 of us friends came looking for a fun day on the river while visiting Blue Ridge, Georgia. There were alot of rafting companies closer to our stay, but we are so glad we drove out to OAR. The drive over to Tennesse was gorgeous and our time on the water with Jon Hall as our guide could never be beat by any other rafting experience. The guides at OAR are focused on safety and fun. Jon Hall took our trip to a whole other level. Not sure anyone knows the river better then Jon. He took what could have been a standard rafting experience and made it AMAZING. He keeps it wild, fun and safe. Thanks Jon for an adventure we wont forget. Your the master of your craft and we couldnt appreciate you more.

Fantastic One-Day Outing - A Must Try Experience - Just had a girls’ trip for some rafting fun to OAR. Couldn’t be happier about the experience. Affordable and easy to reserve, locate, and sign in. Great crew working here - our guide was awesome (request CaveMan when you book!) - friendly and super knowledgeable. They put the first-timers at ease and gave us a safe, fun ride with a mix of 2, 3 and 4 rapids that we will all remember. Highly recommend for small groups, even couples, and for sure I’ll return for another adventure.

Originally nervous, but ready to go again now! - I was super nervous about going, as well as one of my friends. We had requested not to be dumped and Cleveland did a fantastic job as our guide. We did not get dumped at all, ended up having a fantastic time, and or experienced friends still had a great time. I would definitely recommend OAR and their fantastic team. They all worked together to keep everyone safe! But Cleveland was the best!!
