					So much fun!! What a fabulous time.  Stayed for 2 nights in a Cabana.  We were 2 seniors and 2 children.  Wish we’d done this sooner.  Next time will be the medium intensity!  Our guide Pete was fantastic as were the other guides.

					Let the Scottush guide wear his kilt!!! Great family fun doing medium intensity rafting at Owl! Well organized. Wonderful staff and facilities. Worth renting the cabin. Cool air fed compostable toilets in clean washrooms nearby. Food was just OK this year.

Our guide was an awesome, skilled, informative and fun, Scottish guy, Pete. Should have worn Kilt with OWL logo on it for added fun!!!!

					Grand Adventure: Grandparents with Granddaughters It all started with an expressed desire,”I’d like to try cliff jumping.” Whitewater rafting with Owl Rafting was the adventure that ensued for us(74 and 75), and the girls, 16 and 18. Owl Rafting is like summer camp for grownups, with great meals, waterfront activities , campfires every night and a beautiful setting on the Ottawa River. Our rafting guide, Pete, made the day exhilarating and entertaining for our raft of 10—the adrenaline rush of running the rapids and surfing the rapids, the teamwork of paddling together, and enjoying swimming, floating downstream and jumping off the raft. We all loved it! Highlight of our vacation!

					An awesome time had by all! A wonderful time provided by a charismatic and knowledgeable guide! 

Angus led our anxious little group through this adventure with confidence and ease. He helped calm our worries with clear instructions which were repeated and easy to understand. Angus added interesting facts and humour throughout the rafting trip and always had a solid answer for our questions. This trip is accessible for any level of rafter. I would highly recommend this experience and happily return to do it again! Thanks for the memories, Owl!

					So much fun and great food too! We had such a fun trip on the Ottawa river with our guides Katie and Colin. We were a family group aged from 11 to 75 and the day was a great mix of exciting rapids, calm swimming and the chance to cliff jump. The snacks and food were delicious and the trip exceeded our expectations. We are already talking about when we can come back again!
