    Beautiful and Exciting Boat Ride

    Wanted to experience the Rouge River from a boat so we tried this Hellgate Jet Boat tour. It was totally fun! The scenery was beautiful, especially when we were in the Hellgate Canyon and the boat ride was super exciting and WET! July was very hot so it felt great to get wet. Halfway through the trip we turned around, had a nice prefix brunch and then came back.

    Great time, highly recommend! Plan on getting wet!

    Was our second time on this ride. The first time was 27 years ago on our honeymoon! We had such a great time with Sterling on our first ride. My Hubby had been splashing some kids in front of us and Sterling thought he needed some "paybacks" just before we docked. He nailed my hubby with a water canon. It was hilarious!!! We've been wanting to come back ever since. Just wish we could have connected with Sterling one more time.

    Average, dinner thumbs down

    Dinner cruise. The river ride to the dinner lodge was ok. Captain did a lot of talking and backtracking. The dinner experience was horrible. The food was cold and meat dry. The reserved seating at the tables were like sardines packed in a can. Had to ask the waitress multiple times to refill our water pitcher which was empty upon arrival. We were one of the firsts to be seated, so it wasn’t like we were “late to dinner”. We heard awesome reviews from family members and were excited to go. Our pictures of dinner did not compare to other pics taken by family members. The cruise back was better than the trip over. All in all, gave it an average rating. Don’t waste money on the dinner cruise.
