    Edge of the World is a great nearby walking trail that winds along Amicalola Creek. The trail is…read moremostly easy, with a mix of wooden walkways (watch out for a few holes) and dirt paths. There are also a few side trails that climb up the mountain if you're looking for a bit more of a challenge (including dodging Joro spiders!). The small waterfalls are beautiful, and the cool creek water is perfect for dipping your feet in on a warm day.

    Loved the Edge of the World! All I could think in my head was the song, it's the end of the world…read moreas we know it, & I feel fine. The Edge of the World is a landscape we never see. It was semi difficult hike just because we live in Florida and use to live in Illinois (AKA Flatland), but we did it. The easiest way to this is from the parking lot, walk to the left and walk down the stairs. Keep walking on the boardwalk and watch for holes in the boardwalk. When the boardwalk is done, keep walking and then you will come to trees, the trees have steps made from the trees, & carefully watch your step and go down. I actually scooted my butt down and then climbed the tree steps. It was not bad, just something I'm not accustomed to. You will see the water and rocks moving and it is just so beautiful. People walk through and sit in the water and take pics. Be careful when you walk through it can be slippery. We had water shoes. Water is so refreshing. We actually walked the long way, which is walking to the right of the parking lot to the start of the boardwalk. We didn't want to walk down the stairs bc they looked pretty steep. It really is amazing. I'd say you will be here about an hour or two. Parking is free and there are a bunch of signs you need a fishing license. Which we don't have. We just parked And walked!

The place appeared well-organized and inviting, so we waited for about ten minutes. Eventually, an employee arrived in a van, seemingly returning from a pick-up run. He asked how he could assist us, and I mentioned that we were interested in the 2-hour paddle--their most popular option--referencing the sign that clearly stated it was available anytime before 3 PM. We had arrived just after 2 PM. However, he informed us that they were closed and no longer offering that paddle for the day. I pointed out that both the sign and the website indicated that the last drop-in time was 3 PM. He acknowledged this but explained that since it was towards the end of the season and business was slow, they had decided to close early to avoid losing money. It would be helpful if the website and signage were updated to reflect these changes, or at the very least, if the information was honored. We had planned this activity for our afternoon during our short stay in North Georgia, and it was disappointing to find it unavailable despite the posted information.

    Cartecay River Experience has a really good tubing experience because they have several options for…read moreyou when you go to the first location for the business. You can sign up there (where the pizza shop is) to go on the regular lazy river or you can sign up to go on the "Extreme" river. If it's a weekend, you're definitely looking at a line, so plan ahead. They allow you to bring your own tubes and just pay the shuttle fee. That's fantastic! The extreme river experience is several miles up the road, which makes it a longer trip, but also puts you above a bunch of rapids. DO NOT TIE YOUR TUBES TOGETHER IF YOU ARE IN BIG GROUPS!!!! Two is OK, but more than that runs the risk of one of your tubes going the wrong direction and then tearing holes in your tube. There is NO ONE COMING. Your best bet, if your tube pops/rips/deflates is to just keep going down the river the best you can. We made the mistake of tying the 4 of us together....my mom and sister went down one side of the rapids while her boyfriend and I went down the other. There wasn't any choice in this- it was just where the current led our tubes. Since we were connected, the rope stopped us from passing through the rapids easily. We got stuck! My sister managed to get untied and floated on down. My mom had to get out of her tube. I got out of mine and had to help my mom and her boyfriend, and by the time I got to him, his tube was shredded open. I ended up giving him my tube and I just rolled across all the rocks on my way down the rest (more than half) of the river. It kinda sucked for me. I don't know if it's allowed or if it costs more, but you should ask for an extra tube if you're going thru any rapid sections. It may sound like my experience was terrible, but it was fun for everyone else. We brought our own tubes too- so we saved some money on rentals! If you're going on the "extreme" run, and you're renting tubes, you'll need to wait for the shuttle- which could take up to an hour and a half- depending on the lines. Bring water- stay hydrated. If you bring your own tubes, the only shuttle you'll be using is the one at the bottom of the run to bring you back to your car(s). If you plan on going tubing regularly- I highly recommend getting your own tubes. We were able to park, fill up our tubes, and get in the water in like 30min. Same thing for the return trip in the shuttle and packing up. The people are very nice and everything seems sets up with ease. I DO have to take a star away for the changing rooms. They only have 2 and they are AWFUL. I must recommend that you bring a changing pop-up tent with you. It'd be a much more hygienic option. Would I go back! Absolutely! It was fun! We learned a few things and our next trip on the Cartecay will be perfect! I guarantee that if you follow our tips, things will go swimmingly.

    Very unorganized. There are no people guiding you where to go and no one telling you how long the…read morewait time will be. There are actually two locations. The pizza place and the actual place that you get to get on a tube. Do not go to the pizza place as you will wait two hours in the bearing heat, I'm talking the devil's ass crack hot because there is no shade whatsoever. There is overpriced snow cones but other than that just heat. You wait here and sign in only to get on a bus that will take you to the actually place where the tubes are. You tell them your name and the amount of people you have. I had an issue with this as well because there was no cap that means that they were allowing larger groups of people to sign up to get tubes. I'm talking groups of 16 plus and you have to wait until they get done. People at this location were nicer and they offered free bottles of water and beer for waiting. When we finally got to get on the river is actually nice... the first hour. This is a three hour long River. After a while of floating in the heat I was starting to get a headache and I kept running into branches on the side and getting stuck under the rocks. I recommended some kind of device that will help you navigate the water. I fell in once, lost my tube and someone was nice enough to get it for me. For that I was grateful as I would have wadding another hour. The best part of the trip was the whirlpool and the slide. If you can brave it that long it is a small pay out. Don't see myself returning but it was experience.

    Thanks to Wildwood Outfitters for a great day on the Chattahoochee.!…read more The guys were super efficient and made our trip easy! A short shuttle ride to the put-in of 'Section 3' and we were in business. Good boats, paddles, and pfd's along with accurate river running tips and bright sunshine made for a mellow getaway on the 'Hooch.

    Can't say enough good things about Wildwood Outfitters! We were in Helen, GA for Memorial Day…read moreweekend. Cool River was not renting tubes because of the dangerous water conditions. I appreciated their honesty because I'd had a terrible experience tubing previously. They recommended Wildwood Outfitters as an option to do something else, farther down the river where it's deeper and potentially more calm. It's crazy how much the water conditions can change from day to day! Chris greeted us at Wildwood Outfitters. He was so nice and knowledgeable. He discouraged us from kayaking - none of us were familiar with this river, although we had been kayaking before, and most of the sections where they take folks are Class 3+ rapids. Again, due to my past trauma, I thought it was best to take his advice, even though we were disappointed. Just as we were about to leave, he ran back out, and asked if we might be interested in rafting instead. He explained how it would work for the three of us and which section of the river would be best (Section 2, mostly flat or Class 1 rapids with only one area of Class 2 rapids), so we decided to take a chance. It cost about $100, so about $30 pp, with no particular time restrictions. Before we left, Chris took the time to explain how to navigate the rapids, what to expect every step of the way, and what to do if you fall out of the raft. We got helmets and life jackets, as well as a bag to keep our things dry. Although largely unsupervised, we were able to leave our keys in the outpost. They dropped us off and helped us carry the raft down to the embarkation point. I would have been terrified no matter what, but I felt well prepared. The river conditions were exactly as described and Chris's advice was spot on. He'd told us where to call from the raft when we were ready to be picked up, and we were so happy to see his smiling face (and his adorable dog) at the shore. Apparently the rafts hadn't been used in some time, and although they were properly inflated and maintained, there had been a small leak causing the raft to deflate and take on a lot of water. Thankfully they'd given us a bucket to bail the water out, but I basically spent the entire time bailing (giving me a good excuse not to have to paddle, though!). Chris felt terrible. He immediately offered us our money back, or anything else he could do to compensate us. We still had a great time and everyone was safe and dry at the end so we didn't feel that a refund was necessary. We ended up grabbing a couple of cold drinks and some t-shirts and called it even. The outpost was well-equipped with a portopotty, a changing area, and a shower. If you have your own kayak/raft you can hire them just to take you to your selected section. The prices are very reasonable. I would 100% recommend this business and will even think about doing it again!

    As an active river type, my boyfriend and I decided to pack up and head out to Rome for a day on…read morethe river. Our expectations were simple: Tubes, music, and enjoying each others company. We put in the information for our GPS for River Ratz, only to be met with an old, dilapidated building beside the tracks. Come to find out, this was not the right location. So, we put in another address, which then took us to the drop off, still no place to pay. At this point, we're frustrated, so we ask the gentlemen there at the drop off "Where do we actually pay for this float?" He gives us the address, and yet again, we start another journey. We finally get to this bar called Cosmic Dog. The 'place to pay' was a pop up tent on a sidewalk that was leeching off of the Cosmic Dogs parking lot. The attendant was really sweet and personable. With that said, we quickly learned that at 11:00... they already sold out all of their equipment. We just drove an hour, to three locations, to find this place. She reached out to her team and she said they would get back to her. After 30 minutes, we come back to the tent and learn that she still hadn't heard anything. We asked her to check again, and come to find out, they could squeeze us in. We were happy to hear this, and decided to stick around. At 12:18, an hour and some change later, the 'shuttle' (which was an out transport van that sounded like it was about to break down) came to pick us up and drop us off where we'd just been a little over an hour before they picked us up. FINALLY, we get to the water. We're given two tubes, two life vests, and we're offered a tube for our cooler. We denied the additional tube and asked for straps to connect to one another. Apparently that was against the rules, even though they wanted us to strap the cooler tube to our tubes... After 2 hours of trying to get on the water, we finally get down the boat ramp (which is public access), and we get in.... The flow of the river was exhaustingly slow, you are in the heat of the sun for anywhere from 3-5 hours, and there are hardly any places to stop. We understand that this had nothing to do with the company, just nature. BUT.... Over the course of our 5 hours float, my boyfriends tube deflated 3 times, where we had to stop and inflate it on the bank of the river that did not exist. We paid $41 dollars for this... you'd think that the tubes would be good enough to withstand a gruelingly slow float down the river. At the end of the float, you have to 'stick to the right' or you will 'go bye bye' down the wrong side of the river. You have to get off at this boat ramp (also public access) that is surrounded by extremely deep water until you get up to the ramp. You hand a gentleman your tube, and then walk 'a couple blocks' back to your car. Ultimately, our first experience with this business was very underwhelming. It was unsafe, seemed like they threw the entire operation together in less than 24 hours, and then you get off of the river into the middle of a public boat launch. Not to mention the deflating tube that we paid $20 a piece for... and the exhaustingly slow float. ---------------------- If you are looking for a nice, comfortable float that offers some shade... take an extra hour drive up north and hit up the original tubing joints in Helen. If you are looking to kayak/ SUP, RIVER RATZ is the PERFECT PLACE FOR YOU. But us, we will never visit here again. Thank you for the experience and we hope you all the best, but our first impression just didn't work out well. ------------------ If you would like to have a better impression on your new patrons, post your current status on your website. Let people know that you are sold out. Get a safer, bigger van OR BUS. Let people tie their floats together. Recommend bringing paddles or ores to gain some speed on the float. Or just offer kayaking and stand up paddle boarding.

    We went to Rome with a plan to go tubing. After doing research, we chose River Ratz. We were…read moreexpecting a 3-4 hour float but were told this morning that it would probably be closer to 5 because the river was "low and slow". When they tell you to count the bridges and after the 5th one to get to the right, they mean it!! After the 5th bridge, the water starts flowing backwards and it is difficult to get over to exit. I literally got out of my tube, swam and pulled the tube to the side. When they ask if you want to take a paddle, the answer is YES! And, I suggest getting 1 paddle per person. When they ask if you want a strap to connect the tubes, the answer is YES!! We had 2 people in floats and a cooler in the 3rd float, I recommend 3 straps so you are in a circle and not a straight line. You can take a cooler and I recommend going early and renting the cooler float for $10. The team that helped us at check in, into the river and out of the river were nothing but professional. I would do this trip again and would book again with River Ratz.
