The entire staff was amazing!Posted on D PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service from Emily and good prices.Posted on Ammiya ScottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. THE BEST TIME I’ve had outdoors in a while, if you are someone who loves to be outside and be active outside, this is one of the best places to do it!! Staff is very friendly and welcoming and even went the extra mile to make my experience that more special!! I also did this as a package so I got to zip line AND kayak in one whole day, my first time doing both, 10/10, def gonna do again! Aaron and his wife Cindy are the best people to go to if you have any questions or want to know more about the area and any other beautiful sites!!Posted on Angie PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Update 4 years later from the below: we visited again while in ohio from Florida and we did a lot of fun stuff while in town, but canoeing was our favorite thing we dids the whole trip. Great staff! Can't stop thinking about it. It was absolutely wonderful! My son and I were in Columbus from Florida for our yearly trip to see our family and my mom suggested we do something special this trip, so she booked us cabins at Foxs and scheduled us a river trip for the next day. The staff at the livery were so nice the entire time. We loved our cabins. 1 queen bed, bunk beds, the coldest mini fridge I've ever encountered in my life, and a microwave. The cabins were clean and adorable. Beds were very comfy and we had chairs and a table on our covered porches and picnic tables and a fire pit outside each cabin. Bathrooms were private/single person, clean, and very close to the cabins and they allowed my parents dog to stay too. Lots of close restaraunts, a Walmart, and an on site ice cream shop with goats outside to feed. We absolutely loved the river. Me and my son were 1st timers and got a canoe. We had THE BEST time and my parents got kayaks and we all had a wonderful day. I highly recommend and can't wait to come back next year!Posted on Matt PicklesimerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. John the bus driver is the man! He made it a fun experience from the start. Thanks John enjoy your 2 extra slices of pizza now!Posted on Jeremy RosensteinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful time floating down the river in a double kayak. The boys did a great job pulling us in and Amazing Angie was there for us to drive back to our car with all the equipment and coolersPosted on rosie hostetlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
