Drifting in the cool water while the air temperatures hover in the 90 degree range; Paddling with family and friends in the Rocket Boat; Cloudless deep blue skies; The smell of sweet, ripe blackberries drifting across the river; Water gun fights with friendly and enemy pirates; Lunch served daily at the river's edge; The greatest selection of skipping rocks you have ever seen; Snowy white egrets flying over blue-green water; Mountains full of evergreen and deciduous trees; The chattering call of the belted kingfisher; Riding the bull through whitewater rapids. These are a few of the end of summer sensations that everyone is enjoying on the river these days. Come on out to play!

Rogue Rafting in Late Spring

2011-06-13T09:34:00.000-07:00

Rogue River Rafting in late spring is spectacular! The water levels are higher, the flow is faster and yet time seems to stand still. Eagles and osprey are feeding fledglings, deer are coaxing the fawns from the willows, and the otter are nursing and fishing for their pups. With all of the spring flowers still in bloom, there is magic in the air.

Reality Check

2011-05-23T05:09:00.000-07:00

Purple lupine in full bloom, green meadows and new growth on trees, grey and yellow baby goslings coated in down, white water, blue rocket boat, can this all be real? We pinched ourselves and yep! It's true. Come and experience the wonder with us!

Wild Rogue Waves

2011-05-21T12:47:00.001-07:00

Wild Wave riding was the call for the day for these five awesome paddlers! With a larger volume of water flowing between the banks of the mighty Rogue River, there are some amazing runs to be had by all adventurers. The rapids will not disappoint you, they'll just make you want to keep coming back for more!

One More, Please!

2011-05-18T22:00:00.001-07:00

Rafters catching just one more wave, just one more battle, just one more thrill of a lifetime, just one more before sundown today, please~!

Paddlers and Playmakers!

2011-05-16T21:55:00.001-07:00

Playful and provocative? Absolutely! Can they agree on who won the water battle? Not a chance. They all want a rematch! Come on out and join the playmakers and the paddlers!

Take Some Time to Enjoy!

2011-05-10T21:25:00.000-07:00

Fresh food and fresh air on the banks of the Rogue River...life just keeps getting better! Eat a little, visit a little, swim a little, eat a little more, skip a few rocks, go back for second or thirds, gear up for the second half of the day, but don't forget another river brownie!!

Water Beds, Rogue River Style!

2011-04-15T20:15:00.001-07:00

Rafting with kids is a great family time to share together. One of our specialties is taking young tykes and their parents down the river. Everyone has a ball! Then they take a nap on the greatest water bed around! Half Day Rogue River Raft Trips are perfect for very young children to experience milder rapids and some easy stretches of water. Be warned: once the little ones get a taste of the river, you will have to return year after year for the river time nap!

Happy Birthday Bob!

Peach Pump

2011-01-19T16:27:00.000-08:00

The flood waters of 1964 made a big impact along the Rogue River. This old pump was washed out of the peach orchard it helped water, and it hasn't moved since!
