It's mid-October so the pricing wasn't peak pricing and at $40/person. My GPS glitched and turned us around a couple times so we made it just in time. We were given the safety briefing after checking in. Then we got our gear and got on the bus to get to the river. Our small group of 5 got to raft with James. He was phenomenal! James is so much like my husband's family where he can joke with a straight face and you don't know if it's a joke or not. James did an amazing job of guiding us and leading us down the Ocoee. Several in our group had never been whitewater rafting before. Everyone had a great time! It was truly amazing. Thank you so much for memories we won't ever forget!

Our guide was so cool-- her name was Alysha , and she was very funny and kept us safe the whole time ! There was one crazy part when we were spinning like crazy through the rapids and she literally did a handstand in the back of the raft -- it was wild. This place was great, professional and fun-- I highly recommend!

Our guide, Spencer, was incredibly skilled as he could have navigated blindfolded... yes, he's that good! Spencer was also an absolute blast to surf the river with... very friendly, knowledgable and well-traveled... he had plenty of amusing stories to share and kept us all very engaged. I should also mention that Spencer was also seriously great at gaging our comfort level vs. our spirit of adventure... therefore, he was able to navigate us down various paths of the river making it challenging and thrilling for us! While there are plenty of white water outfitters to pick from, we intentionally picked a smaller outfitter and we were so glad we did... we felt our experience was more personal, less generic, and seriously less crowded! I only wished I had sat in the front of the boat where the photographer was situated... that would have made a fantastic birthday photo. The only other "disappointment" was that Cascade Outdoors advertised about their HOT SHOWERS which was super important to us and was one of the main reasons we chose Cascade Outdoors... but there was NO hot water available and the lack of being able to take a good shower after the rafting trip did impede on our other plans. Other than that, Cascade Outdoors and our guide, Spencer, offered us a fabulously fun white water experience on the Ocoee River! We can't wait to return!!! :)

Our guide, Lynette, was AWESOME! #WhiteWaterAdventure Favorite part of this trip? The Juicer (aka Mystery). Picture us parking the rafts, scaling very sharp and jagged rocks/boulders and then jumping out (over an underwater boulder) into a frothy and swirling rapid. It, literally, mixes you around and holds you under. Then, you start to see light but it brings you back down and then you pop out several yards downstream. I know I was only under a few seconds but it seemed way longer. The hubby did 3 jumps! #MenAreLargeBoys We love Cherokee and highly recommend them for an awesome adventure on the Ocoee River.
