Adventure Whitewater Rafting – Stay & Raft
Trip Overview
Our Adventure Whitewater Rafting – Stay & Raft is a 2 Day Package includes an exciting whitewater rafting trip, and a day spent at the OWL waterfront resort playing and relaxing.
Whitewater Rafting
Paddle, splash, and roll down more challenging routes of the Ottawa River for a full day excursion. Your experienced and passionate guide controls the raft using oars at the back, while you are paddling with your crew. You’ll get a chance to body surf and float, and possibly do some cliff jumping too – it’s up to the river!
*All participants are required to paddle.
As the currents calm down, we transfer to the comfort of our signature Pontoon Boat where your dry clothes, and a feast of freshly prepared grilled buffet awaits. Relax and reenergize while you cruise back to the OWL Resort, via the historical route of the First Nations viewing the rugged beauty of the Canadian Shield. Once back at the resort, your guides will show a video presentation where you can relive your day’s adventure!
Overnight
Play a round of frisbee golf, a game of beach volleyball, or relax on the beach. We also boast a large floating swim dock right off shore, a bike pump track and a life size maze. The resort is not a licensed establishment so our guests are welcome to bring their own alcoholic beverages. Ice cream, snacks, cold drinks and ice are available for sale on site!

Reviews
Amazing day! From start to finish the entire day was amazing! Everyone on staff was incredible! The entire day was organized and well planned out. The food was fantastic. All the guides were knowledgeable, friendly and helpful!! So much fun on and in the water!!
Awsome time and will return again soon Had anawsome time the entire time we were at the resort. The rafting was bang on a GREAT TIME!!! A big shout out to our guide Angus who is very knowledgeable about the river and rafting. We felt very safe the entire ride down the river. I would also like to give a shout out to Luc and Pete the other guides that were on the river with us that day. They also made the trip fun and we felt safe with them there on the river with us as well. The resort is clean and the food is very good. The staff are awsome, friendly and smile a lot. There are a lot of activities you can do as well when you are not on the river rafting. I highly recommend Owl Rafting for anyone who is looking for some adventure and down time as well. I am already planning my next adventure with Owl Rafting for next year with more of my family this time! 
OWL Rafting does it right! We had a fabulous day with OWL Rafting. Our river guide, Pete, was amazing and made our adventure very memorable. We can’t stop talking about every rapid we conquered and the things we learned about the area and rafting in general. The pontoon boat ride and fantastic meal ended our daily perfectly.
