Let me start by saying this group was very accommodating and commutative. Our young guides were…read morefriendly, knowledgeable, and kept safety and fun top of mind! What's more is, I was "that lady" who brought a waterproof phone protector with a neck strap to take pictures with my family and friends. I was also "that lady" who took the neck strap off to avoid tan lines...needless to say, my phone went into the Hudson River without me realizing it! Ethan and his crew were so kind during my personal meltdown, mostly due to me kicking myself for being so careless. They had a group of 80 after us, but assured me they would all look out for it as they had an idea where I dropped it. We called every half hour in the hopes one of the other crews may have discovered the phone, and at 4:50, my husband's phone rang with the amazing news that the phone was found safely! All 3 of our guides looked and I cannot express how grateful I am to them all!! Personal tragedy aside, our entire group said the lazy river was the best part of our trip, and we have already recommended AAC to friends who are traveling to Lake George in the coming weeks! If you're looking for a fun and relaxing way to spend a morning or afternoon, this is a definite must to check for your list!

This was a fun day for the family. Water conditions can be low and we did have to walk at a few…read morespots but when you call they are very straight forward about the river conditions. Even with the low water level there were still some swimming holes along the way. I would say water shoes of some sort are a must for this. Also we grabbed some large sticks at the beginning which helped us push off rocks and away from some of the shallow sections. Was very beautiful and relatively inexpensive for a day of fun. It took us about 3.5 hours and we didn't stop. But there are definitely spots along the river to stop and eat a packed lunch if you bring one.

The process from reservation to the float to leaving was all very seamless. Recommend: water shoes (flip flops worked but would have been easier in actual water shoes), bringing a waterproof cell phone holder, and having a bag with towels ready for the bus. They sell water shoes and the cell phone holders there for a markup.

I definitely would recommend going tubing at this company. The staff are super friendly and funny…read more The place has an option to make tubing luxurious. There were options to get the floaty's with a head rest, and a cooler for all your snacks while traveling down the river. Please keep in mind that cost extra. Honestly you do not really need snacks as it's only an hour and 30 minutes for going down the river. The spot where they took us was super pretty as you had a nice view. I would come back!

What a fun, adventurous river tubing experience for the whole family. Some parts of this river is…read moreslower, some parts faster moving, a good variety and speed. We arrived around 12:30 noon, paid, everyone got a wristband, took a tube (and life vests for the younger kids), loaded with the tubs onto the yellow school bus that took us about a 10 minutes ride to the upper part of river. By the time we got into the river to start, we can see the water rising quickly from the release of the water from the upper part of the dam. (No point to come too early as the water level was too low so you're not going fast down the river, until the water rises.) And that's where the fun & adventure starts! This place was well run, very affordable price (compared to other places nearby), the family running the place nice. There are 2 clean porta potties and lots of tables where everyone can have lunch after. Great fun to social distance and be in the water and the great outdoors. We brought strings to tie some of the tubes together for the kids. And we saw some people even bring their own paddles. Unlike some places, they aren't strict with what type of shoes you wear (if you want to at all). I was hesitant to take my family there due to some negative reviews but this place didn't disappoint. Highly recommend and we'll surely come back.

This place was awesome! A little hidden gem. Extremely affordable to rent tubes, especially…read morecompared to other places in western mass we found online. We went with 6 friends and had a blast. You can either strap the tubes onto your car yourself, drive up to the starting spot and tube down the river, and then they shuttle you back to your car, or they can drive you to the starting spot. It was about a 1-1.5hr tubing ride which was a perfect length. Had truly a great time, and ended with hot dogs and root beer floats!! Really a great find and a great deal, and happy to support a small family business.
