Webb Brothers Rafting & General Store offers a friendly and welcoming experience with a country family feel. The store has all the basics needed for a day on the river, including food, dry bags, water shoes, maps, and shades. Visitors can purchase a locally drawn map of the Hiwassee River, which they can color. The rafting service is highly praised, providing shuttles to the put-in point and a relaxing float back down the river. The 5-mile float takes about 3.5 to 4.5 hours and features easy navigable rapids ranging from class I to III. Visitors can rent single or double inflatables, including tubes, duckies (inflatable kayaks), or a 5-person raft, with life jackets and paddles available for rent. The river trip is described as beautiful and relaxing, with some recommending more adventurous options like the duckie for a wild ride. The staff is always friendly and caring, treating guests like family and offering help whenever needed. The store also features interesting touches like remnants of the old Reliance Post Office and a hidden plaque on “Dem Boys Rock.” Overall, Webb Brothers is a popular stop for river adventures, store essentials, and motorcycle riders exploring the area, known for its warm atmosphere and good history.

Super friendly people. If you’re interested they’ll share details about the history of the area. Really incredible cabins/accommodations decorated with tasteful antiques. A hidden gem because won’t find on Booking or AirBnB. Highly recommend.
