Their 2 guides were great and very entertaining.  Kids had a great time and safe environment, they were up in the trees ziplining through.  Try to book in advance as they do need to get the staff especially in the off season.  We were lucky they were able to find staff the next day we called. read less

Both were humorous while still providing thorough safety information and encouragement to alleviate any doubt or fear. The 8 zip lines were all fabulous as we soared through the Fall foliage on a glorious, sunny day. This was our second time here, we have sent our  kids as well and no one has been disappointed. It’s GREAT fun!! Ask for these two guides by name, they made the experience even better!! read less

None of the members in our group had zip-lined before, so they took plenty of time to explain the self-braking and safety procedures. They also incorporated plenty of humor and interesting facts into the experience. The course itself was a great mix of different lengths, speeds, and views on each zipline. So much fun!! read less

Lizzie and Leah were our guides.  They were fun, witty and patient. We had a BLAST!  It was our priciest activity, but nonetheless I highly recommend this.  They paid close attention to safety, the platforms were sturdy and the equipment good.



Will certainly be on our list of activities. read less

My 15yo son and I (55yo) shared the adventure with an awesome family from Montreal. Top flight attention to detail with regard to safety, systems, communication, etc. ~2hrs to run through the zip lines with gradually increasing levels of excitement/exhilaration. Photos taken by our leads were easily available at the end of the session and they were well done and priced reasonably. Kudos to our guides Ben and Lacie for leading us through such a great day! (but mostly thanks to Lacie for keeping us safe and putting up with Ben's corny jokes...) (Luv ya Ben!) read less
