Travelers consistently praise the knowledgeable and personable guides who make every trip memorable. Clayton, Marnie, Patrick Harrison, Liam, and Benny get special mentions for sharing local history, spotting wildlife like bald eagles and ospreys, and creating fun atmospheres while keeping groups safe. The staff across the board earns high marks for being friendly, accommodating, and genuinely welcoming, from Pete and Cassandra's warm hospitality to the guides who quickly handle unexpected situations on the water. The operation itself runs smoothly with reasonable pricing, well-maintained facilities including clean changing rooms and restrooms, and excellent last-minute flexibility. They offer various activities beyond rafting including kayaking and tubing, with delivery services for kayak rentals. The Hudson River provides beautiful scenery, especially during fall foliage season, and the rapids deliver the right amount of excitement. One reviewer mentioned limited changing facilities at certain drop-off points for combo tours, though proper changing rooms exist at the main location. Food service gets positive feedback overall, though bringing personal snacks is an option if you have particular preferences.
This is an amazing outfitter! Highly recommended! Our hosts, Pete and Cassandra were warm and gracious. Benny, our guide on the river, was very knowledgeable and funny! He was also patient and supportive! The prepared lunch (by Cassandra) was delicious and the snacks at the end of the trip were refreshing. Also, a shout out to Cassandra for returning us safely by bus after the trip was over. An awesome day for me and for my family! Thanks to all at Beaver Brook Outfitters who made this day possible.
