Wahoo's is a family-owned operation on a beautiful stretch of North Carolina river, and that personal touch really shines through. The owners and staff consistently earn praise for being friendly, accommodating, and genuinely helpful with first-timers. They're known for being flexible with timing and patient with groups, which makes the whole experience feel low-pressure and welcoming. The tubing and kayaking options get enthusiastic thumbs up from repeat visitors, with many noting they return year after year. A nice bonus: tubing includes unlimited runs for one price, so you can float as many times as you want. The longer kayak trip runs about five hours and takes you through some gorgeous mountain scenery. The river itself is described as calm and relaxing, perfect for a mellow afternoon. One thing to keep in mind is their cancellation policy is pretty strict, even for emergencies, so plan accordingly and consider travel insurance if you're booking in advance.
