Adam was our guide and honestly - he made our trip. Great day on the water, good conversation, and we always felt like we were in safe hands.

We did the Lower New River Gorge Full Day Adventure with Jobo as our guide. Terry, Poppy and the rest of staff were incredibly kind helpful and funny. They kept the spirits high and we will definitely be back for Gauley. Highly recommend Cantrell Rafting!
