Testimonials

Here are some comments from guests at Kumsheen.

Resort

"The Kumsheen Rafting Resort is one of the most beautiful places in all of British Columbia. Every morning we awoke to the smell of air so clean and fresh it cleansed our lungs. Our accommodations were astonishing; we stayed in cozy cabins, with a pool, classy restaurant, accompanied by a basketball and volleyball court.".

Samantha Iverson

"The resort itself is the perfect compliment to the river raft adventure. With a poolside bar and hot tub, the amenities provide a great atmosphere for unwinding after a day of paddling the river. The tent rooms provide a soft bed to rest while staying true to the natural feel of the Kumsheen experience."

John Pigeon. Vancouver 24 Hours Magazine

"Kumsheen Rafting Resort is the ideal getaway for people seeking adventure during the day and yet being able to lap up luxurious accommodations and fine dining at night."

Kurt Langmann, Editor. Aldergrove Star

We had the time of our lives at your gorgeous resort...

 The facilities were wonderful - clean, well outfitted. Everyone that we encountered was friendly and professional. The guides were very capable and worked hard to ensure that everyone had a fun experience. It was a very memorable and special time for my family and your resort and people could not have been nicer.

I just wanted to extend a huge THANK YOU for making our group event our most memorable ever! I've been receiving tons of feedback from our trip and thought I would share some of the comments with you. A big thank you to our guides Andrew and Jimmy who made our trip so fun and entertaining!! We had a BLAST... we are already planning to do it again next year!!!!

Some comments I've received include the following:

"My throat is still sore from screaming so loud!"

"Our guide was great he kept us in stitches the whole trip!"

"I had the time of my life, thank you, thank you, thank you!!"

From Megan to Ryan to Charlie at the end of our trip with a glass of cold water you people are true professionals. We as a family had a most enjoyable day. The only thing we will do different next time is stay overnight and use your facility. Thanks again for a great day!

"And that's how the rest of the afternoon went - laughing hysterically at the guide's tall tales, screeching with delight, bouncing around the boat, cowering under nine to 10 foot waves in rapids like the infamous Number 17 and The Terminator."
Mikelle Sasakamoose, Entertainment Editor, Kamloops This Week

"With an impeccable safety record and over 200,000 satisfied visitors, making your way to the Kumsheen Resort could be one of the easiest decisions to make, but leaving could very well be the hardest."
John Pigeon. Vancouver 24 Hours Magazine

Everything, from the clean facilities to the smile on the staff member faces, the friendly & professional service, fantastic meals, and then the "out of this world" rafting experience, were all first class and better.

We are glad that we did our river rafting with Steve as our guide. We had a blast! I will go again in a heart beat....

From the moment we walked in to the gift shop/registration desk to the moment we left we were impressed with your staff. I have become one of your walking ads, sharing our great experience with everyone I work with.

Your facilities are fantastic and the staff are unbelievable. It is truly rare to find staff that are always friendly and helpful all of the time, you have found that staff. The three ladies who looked after us at meal times were the greatest and your cook was terrific. I was expecting hotdogs and fries not gourmet meals. Even the young lady who I saw on a number of occasions pulling weeds and cleaning up the waterfall was always friendly and smiling.

Thanks for the amazing time at your resort. The kids loved it, so did Lisa, and I'm essentially addicted to the place.
Paul Bucci, Business Editor, Vancouver Sun

Your entire staff from the ladies who answered the phone, Charles our bus driver, the girls at reception, Conor and especially Braden our guide, were outstanding!

There simply aren't enough words to describe the service you provided and the trip I had. Everything about my trip was awesome, from the resort and the amenities, the incredible food served in the Cutting Board Restaurant and on the riverside, to the friendly out going staff in the office and ... your guides are amazing and the river phenomenal.
