As the website describes: a 14-acre landscape where you can experience the great circle of life while traveling through 18 unique sculptures and pieces of art. Inspired by several gardens in Europe, the installations symbolize the journey from birth to death and beyond. So cool, don't mis this if you're in the area.

My nephews (8 & 10) & I signed up for the tubing trip this morning. When they dropped us off, we…read morewere told that it would be best if we walked out a ways to the second cove in order to get the best current out into the water. We did that, with our cooler raft in tow. However, i ended up pushing my nephews in their tubes for about a half mile (past the second cove) before we were able to get going. This took about an hour and a half. About 3/4 the way through our time on the water, we heard thunder. I realized they hadn't covered what to do in the case of bad weather in the briefing. So thankfully I was able to call the company from my tube & they advised us to get out of the water if we heard thunder & wait 15 min before getting back in. We heard thunder in and off for about 45 min so stayed out of the water on some rocks while we waited. I felt like we were bothering the company when they called & they didn't seem at all concerned, telling me it was a passing shower. After we returned to the water, we saw some lightening so I tried getting us over to shore. The water was getting choppy & we weren't going anywhere so I got out of my tube & pulled all of us to shore. We built a small shelter using our tubes & tried to stay dry but at this point, it was pouring. I called the company again & they said there was nothing they could do & couldn't come pick us up based on our location. I checked my GPS & we were .6 miles away from our stopping location. The company told us to start walking back along the shore. We did that and along the way my nephew slipped on the rocks because it was still pouring. Finally, when we made it back, we had to drag all the gear up the hill (which was mentioned during the briefing but we weren't expecting to do this in the pouring rain. When we got back, I expressed my disappointment that they'd send anyone out with conditions like that expected as I truly felt our lives were in danger. The woman said no one was blaming anyone and I corrected her. Yes, I blame the company for putting our lives in danger. She explained that they had no idea about the weather conditions and that this system just popped up out of nowhere. I can understand that but at no point did anyone offer to come & help us. They could have easily walked from where they were & helped us walk back. I would not recommend this company due to the lack of safety measures & how isolated we felt when conditions got bad.

One thing I would say to make sure of is that you check with John first to see how much the trip will cost, other than that we had an amazing experience!

He is willing to work with you however makes you most comfortable. You can be very experienced or a newbie. It doesn't matter he will make sure you are comfortable and make sure that you only do what he knows your vehicle is capable of. Definitely worth working with Ron. His trips are dog friendly too!

A few weekends ago I went on a group over-landing trip with @ridgeback guide service. This was the…read more"Craft Beer Run" in Vermont. During the trip we hit a bunch of local breweries as well as many local shops. The trip was perfectly planned and the trails were great. There was enough, technical driving to keep you focused, and more than enough scenery to keep you engaged. The trails/obstacles that required a bit more attention were expertly spotted by Ron and/or his crew. At no time did I feel like I was in over my head. Having gone on "self guided" trips before, I can tell you that having a pre-planned, guided tour from someone who knows the area, is worth much more than the cost of the trip itself. The campfire community every night was an added bonus. If you are on the fence about booking a trip with Ridgeback Guide Service, just go for it!! There are other guide services out there, however, Ron checks all the boxes, does everything by the book, is a wealth of knowledge in off-roading and adheres strongly to the "tread lightly" principles. I look forward to many more outings with Ridgeback Guide Service.

He is personable and knowledgeable about the area and lake.

Plus his prices can't be beat.
