Meal Options

All of our day trips stop for a riverside lunch, which includes delicious deli style sandwiches with all the trimmings (soft drinks are provided). You may also choose to stop and enjoy a wonderful lunch at one of the unique riverside inns that are situated along the way. For large groups we can arrange for cookouts and custom designed meals to meet your needs.

Trip Schedule

On a typical day trip we generally meet guests at the take-out location at 10:00 a.m., carpool to the put-in, and climb aboard and head down river. After a stop for lunch we continue down river and arrive at the take-out between 4:00 and 4:30. A reliable shuttle service is available for vehicles. This is our standard day trip schedule, however, we are happy to adapt the scheduling to meet your requirements.

Large Groups

These raft trips are great activities for large groups, such as, family reunions, team building, or large corporate events. They can be an excellent addition to a conference, or tour group, and are an exciting alternative to the typical company picnic.

Large Group Multi-day Camp and Lodge Trips

Lodging is available at the many inns, B&Bs, and cabins situated along the river. See our links page in order to check out the various lodging opportunities. We can also arrange for cookouts at some of these lodges.

Caster’s Guide Service has access to a private camp just off the river that can host up to 32 people. Beautifully situated this camp gives you the real backcountry camp feel without all the hassle of packing the gear. All you need to bring are your clothes, personal items, and a sleeping bag, and we do the rest. There are several open cabins with built-in bunks, a covered campfire area, and a camp kitchen. There is no electricity but we do have running water and even hot showers. We take care of all the meals, which are prepared over wood fires while you relax and enjoy some of our delicious dutch oven camp cooking. Due to the many recreational opportunities in the area we can also design a multi-activity trip that can combine fishing, hiking, hot springs, or golf, along with your rafting.

Booking early is recommended for both the riverside lodges and the camp, as they tend to fill quickly. For these multi-day camp and lodge trips please contact us for a quote.
