Spend your day on an Adventure, not waiting in line for one! The other outdoor outfitters in the New River Gorge have consolidated into sprawling, crowded campuses. That’s just not us. We’re a small, personal operation of pro adventure guides. Family owned for more than 30 years, we know these hills like our own backyard… because, well, it is our backyard. We play all year round, and we’ll guide you on any outdoor adventure you want to explore. We’re all over these hills— rafting the whitewater, riding horseback through the forest, mountain biking the trails, fishing, snowshoeing and more. But whether we’re relaxing or high adventuring, our clock is set to yours. There’s no rush. We can enjoy the ride. Somewhere around, you’ll run into Skip, the owner. He may even be guiding you down the river, or driving your shuttle. The personal touch is what keeps our guests coming back. Our hospitality doesn’t end with the journey. Come back to our welcoming little basecamp to kick back in a luxurious cabin or a rustic campsite, and enjoy a home-cooked meal from the Undercut Pub & Grill. Visiting us is like being welcomed into our home— we can help with all those little details. Let us show you a fun family adventure.

Float and fish Americas Best Whitewater. The New River Gorge offers some of the best Smallmouth holes in the world. When the water levels are right (not too high) we fish a 9 to 12 mile stretch of the New while navigating some very impressive rapids. During the summer and fall the river slows making the Gorge the best place to fish. With extra gradient the water tumbles over rocks providing much needed oxygen for the bass to stay more active and feed aggressively. This is a full day trip that includes lunch, equipment, snacks, and drinks.
