We were a group of 15 and decided to try tubing down the Delaware River after hearing so many great…read morethings about it. We were able to get a reservation for the last weekend of the 2026 season on September 12, and we chose the 1:30 PM time slot. Since we live about an hour away, we made sure to leave enough time for parking, checking in, getting a locker, choosing our tubes, and getting our life vests, which are mandatory. They also have portable changing rooms and portable bathroom facilities. I paid a few extra dollars for the Deluxe Tube, which is blue, and I definitely recommend it. It has a backrest, which made it much more comfortable to lean back, relax, and enjoy the ride. Because there were 15 of us, we actually ended up with our own school bus! You bring your tube onto the bus with you, and the staff drives you several miles up the road to the starting point. Once you get off, you cross a small bridge and walk down a fairly steep flight of stairs to the river. A few important tips: WATER SHOES OR OLD SNEAKERS ARE A MUST. I ALSO RECOMMEND WEARING A BIG T-SHIRT OVER YOUR BATHING SUIT BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO PUT A LIFE JACKET ON . There are plenty of rocks, and in some areas the water was fairly shallow. You also need to be able to carry your tube and handle the stairs. I also highly recommend buying a waterproof phone pouch that hangs around your neck. They're inexpensive on Amazon and make it so easy to take pictures without worrying about dropping your phone into the Delaware! Waterproof bags are also great for anything else you want to keep dry. You can rent a small floating raft to attach to your tube for snacks, drinks, or personal items. Keep in mind that, as of 2026, coolers are no longer allowed, and you cannot bring disposable plastic bottles. Reusable drink containers or thermoses are the way to go. We chose the longer tubing trip, approximately 4.5 miles, which takes around three hours or a little longer depending on the river conditions. They also offer a shorter trip of a little over two hours, but the longer one was perfect for us. Once you're in the river, you're basically on your own. There isn't a guide floating with you, although staff occasionally come by in boats to make sure everyone is doing okay. Since we had such a large group, some of us brought rope and bungee cords and connected our tubes so we could stay together. That made it even more fun. The river was beautiful and very calm the day we went. The water temperature was perfect, not too cold and not too warm, and floating down the Delaware surrounded by nature was incredibly relaxing. One of the coolest surprises was the floating hot dog stand about halfway down the river! You can pull your raft or tube over, order food, get out of the water, and sit on a little sandy area. It was such a unique and fun stop. We also saw people kayaking, rafting, swimming, and just having a great time. I would recommend arriving at least 15-20 minutes before your scheduled time, and probably even earlier if you have a large group. Overall, we had an absolute blast. It was relaxing, beautiful, different, and so much fun to do with a group. We would definitely go back. They are now closed for the 2026 season, but if you're looking for something fun to do when they reopen next year, I highly recommend giving Delaware River tubing a try!

This is such a unique ability when instructing, and it is so hard to find. She has been incredibly patient during lessons, help me set clear goals, and best of all she is giving me incredible opportunities to work with her horses in and outside of lessons to further advance my riding and horsemanship. Summer Camp: the regular camp is friendly to all levels of kids. After helping instruct a week of camp, I watched so many of our campers come out of their shell and realize why we love what we do so much. The highlight of my week was having one of the campers start the week terrified of the horses, and ending the week steering all by herself and counting the rhythm of her steps to focus without being nervous. It was a privilege to be part of this experience Advanced Camp: Jen knows her stuff and wow this camp is packed with so much information and experience. I really wish she had a version for those 18+ but I'm not sure how that would even work. All I know is I wanna do what those kids are doing... Anyone at this facility will tell you that the horses are all loved very much, and they are not just simply part of the program but the foundation of the family. I have such an appreciation for what this barn is and respect for those who run it.

I rode here for one semester as an undergraduate with a college equestrian team and had a horrible…read moreexperience that, four years later, I still think about all the time. First of all, I paid for a book of lessons upfront and was ghosted by the instructor and didnt receive a handful of them. Second, people in our group lessons were sometimes put on old overworked horses, or horses that still needed more recovery time after an injury. Third, Jen ignored me during lessons except to make fun of me for checking my posture in the reflection of the glass window or to blame me for her horse's anxiety and bad behavior. In the latter situation, Jen had one of her interns get on the horse with a half hour left of the hour lesson, and expressed sincere shock when the intern was having the same issues as me. (She had placed the blame on me not pulling back on the reigns hard enough, when i was using all my bodyweight, and the poor pony was getting worked up). Well, I ended up standing there and watching the rest of the paid lesson without getting back on a horse. Why did I even bother showing up?? To spend money grooming and tacking a horse for someone else to ride? Jen chose favorites on the team and also picked people out that she disliked. Generally, she loved outgoing extroverted people, and picked on introverts. There were a number of people on the team, not just me, who she wrongly blamed or gave unequal treatment to during lesson. Jen needlessly made me spend money on specific riding gear (like tall booths and a velvet helmet) telling me they were an absolute necessity, but then a boy on the team who she liked got to wear half chaps over paddock boots and a plastIc helmet, which was my setup originally!!! Wtf!!! Riding was always something i really really loved doing and looked forward to, but i would feel sick with anxiety on my way to lessons towards the end of my one season here. I left this place a worse rider and having spent a lot of money needlessly on accessories and lessons i never received, not to mention my confidence was crushed. It is not like me to leave reviews like this but I still think about my negative experience here all the time, years later :(

The night we went there were two school buses and tons of teenagers holding up the lines or trying to cut the lines to get with a group of 10+ of their friends. Rather annoying. Haunted Hayride- The hayride was actually pretty lame this year. The actors didn't do much in regards to actually scaring you; they would mostly just scream at you and run away. Aside from giving me and my date a chance to get close and watch the stars in the cornfield we rode through, it was a waste. 1/2 the time we either missed seeing the actors or they had some lame scare tactic.(We were seated in the middle side of the cart.) Haunted House- Pretty much the same as last year. I did have some actors grab me and they did add some more illusion type stuff this year; however they rush you through so you don't get a chance to really look at it. As a result, there were a few areas within the house that had a line of like 20 people or more. Field of Terror- We skipped this attraction this year, but when we sat at the bonfire right outside, we didn't hear too many screams or anything. Bonfire- It is a great idea so that on cooler nights (like the night we went), we could enjoy hot cider and caramel apples while keeping warm. Plus the other car we parked in their property was hit and damaged on the left side fender because of the crooked way they have their attendants direct the cars. (We didn't see it until the following morning when it was light out) Beware if you park there!
