Our family spent one evening last summer at Kumsheen Rafting Resort. The accomidations were comfortable but with the train running right by it was noisy and we did not sleep well. Rafting was great and the guide was very entertaining. All the rapids had a name and when my daughter pointed out that all the names sounded mean the guide... More

This was my third outing at Kumsheen for my birthday bash. The whole experience is well worth the drive. This Aug we stayed over night the night before rafting. Spent time around the pool and relaxed that evening listening to the live music. A great time was had by all, the staff there is just great and Ryan made us... More

The rafting was lots of fun - I'd recommend the paddling (over the power rafting) if that's being offered when you arrive, because you get closer to the action. The guide suggested we swim through a few of the more tame rapids, and that was a gas. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. We stayed in a prospectors... More

My friend, 17 year old nephew and I participated in the 'Legendary Thompson' day long river raft in mid Sept. It was the end of the season and the water was running fast. The drive from Kelowna via Merritt and the Nicola Valley was beautiful and we arrived with plenty of time to spare. Unfortunately we were met my two... More

An excellent introduction to whitewater rafting in BC. Our skillful guide led us through the mighty rapids of the Thompson time and again to make sure we got the full experience. No need for a shower afterwards as the river water is very clean! Kumsheen is a beautiful resort, with well maintained gardens/amenities, and friendly/helpful staff. The teepee was awesome.... More

Just got back from our first trip to Kumsheen and can't wait til next time. I was a bit nervous about rafting on the Thompson River but the staff is expert and the equipment is top notch. Going over the rapids was a thrill and combined with the gorgeous scenery, hot sun and tasty lunch, it was a perfect day.... More

Didn't stay at the resort but went on the rafting trip with family and a friend. The whole experience was excellent and if this is your thing then I would recommend Kumsheen.

The staff are just SO friendly and if your staying here for the rafting then it is absolutely amazing. We stayed here... More

This year was my 5th rafting trip with Kumsheen and as always it was amazing! I have rafted the Fraser and Thompson rivers with Kumsheen. I have gone paddling and power rafting with Kumsheen. Every time I went the rapids were incredible, the staff was friendly, the food was fantastic and the accommodations were great. I have gone rafting with... More

My wife Wanda has been bugging me for years to do some rafting. We have done a couple of low level ones (ho-hum) in Juneau, and in Squamish, so I wasn't exactly eager to repeat, what I thought, would be a somewhat uninspiring experience. Well, I was dead wrong! From the first call to Kumsheen (a convenient 1-800 number), until... More
