The 9 mile kayaking experience in calm waters was awesome. Just remember to follow their initial directions.

I've been waiting to have time to post a review about this place! Last weekend we traveled to Port Jervis and looked into doing rafting. Plenty of places to do it up there, but pick this place!!!It was my partner and I so clearly only needed to book for 2, every place but silver canoe had a 3 person minimum to book. Which was a little silly that other places were making you pay for a 3rd person even if you didn't have one. Here we were able to book a single raft for the two of us and pay just for the two of us.We did run a bit late morning of, called to let them know and they were very flexible and accommodating with us.Larry drove us up to the starting point and he was so nice and informative! Felt like VIP since he took us up in the supplies van so we didn't have to wait an hour for the next bus going up. 10/10 Great rafting trip, easy to book, such nice staff, will be returning. Thank you for a great time Silver Canoe!place but Silver

I enjoyed this spot a lot. It is definitely a more lazy river chill vibes. The river is 9 miles long that we took from port eddy to Javis. It was half still water and half class 1-2 currents. Most of the currents were very small waves. It was very fun. The river is deep and some parts and shallow in others. We chose not to go in but you can definitely stop and swim, or even cliff dive off a ledge. The water is very slow so it requires a lot of paddling and you wont get far without paddles lol.Uh.. what else.. Portapotties.. gross unfortunate but to be expected in this type of place/activity. so do your business before hand if possible lol! It was relatively ok, ive been to worse. They have changing rooms which was nice. Staff super friendly and nice. Checkin/out was super easy and every one was safe and had fun.

The staffs were so friendly and professional. We signed the waiver online and they have everything printed out and made the process so easy and fast. They do have paper waiver for customers to sign if they didn’t do it online. They have porta-potties and changing room in the parking lot, and the parking lot is big and flat.We have about 50 people including kids from age 1 to age 14, most were second time rafting and some were 1st time rafting. We had friends who don’t swimThey have different sizes of life jackets from toddler size to adult XXXL, and they were all dry for us to choose. They also have adult petite size, without having to worry about too big and not comfortable to move around.The raft wasn’t small, it can sit 6 big adults. You can bring a 58 qt cooler without an issue.The weather wasn’t sunny which was so nice and comfortable. Temperature around 70F. The water level is higher than last year due to the rainfall, the water current wasn’t too strong, most of time was so clam, only 2-3 spots the water current is rough, even though the water didn’t splash on us. It was better when the water level is higher, so less chance to stuck on rock this year.We chose the 9 miles rafting trip, it took us about 4.5 hours total in the water and including we stopped twice for lunch and swimming for an hour.There were 2 spots that we can park our 7 rafts together.THERE WAS NO CELLPHONE SIGNAL, so more relaxing.? and we saw big Eagles, great blue Heron and some ducks during the rafting. A good way to get away from busy life.We will definitely come back to Silver Canoe next summer.

Friendly and accommodating staff. First time white water rafting, it was very beautiful and calm for the most part. I think this is the perfect place for a first-timer as I hear it can be a little rough in other rivers. I was able to bring a 58 quart cooler on the raft, which also seated 4 adults and 3 kids. Definitely will go back.

Had a very nice day on the river with silver canoe. We had rain before our trip so the water was high and moving quickly. Nice equipment and the staff were great.

Well organized, very accommodating and no experience necessary. This is a great option for tubing/rafting etc. The scenery was stunning!

Definitely worthwhile! The wife and I certainly enjoyed our time canoeing down the river despite being totally new to the activity.

Maybe we just had bad luck and their customer service was tired and had bad day, overall it was a bit bizarre experience... We called Silver Canoe ahead of time to see about the river (water level) status and they gave us exactly the OPPOSITE description of what it was. We learned that the water is very low only once we were getting on their bus. The unexpected: Forecast said weather was supposed to be okay for the day, but we got hit by a huge storm right after we started. Strong cold winds gusting through the river valley like through a funnel, raft was filling up with rain water, lightning all around us and visibility got pretty bad due to the heavy rain. The two small kids started to shiver and rain was not stopping (we still had the full trip ahead of us) so we had to find a way how to end this qucikly and safely. There were no places to hide or where to get out of the river... and when we finally found a spot, there was NO PHONE RECEPTION to call for help. So we ran up to the road, and tried to stop cars to bring the kids down to town to get them dry and warm. Not many wanted to stop for a soaked guy standing in a downpour ... but we got eventually lucky when a truck stopped by and helped us... When we came back to Silver Canoe only after an hour after leaving them (the water trip itself takes 4-5). Wet and with blue lips. We wanted to see if they could give us another ride for another day, or at least a discounted one, as this was all unexpected, we really didn't even start, and overall just a pure disaster experience. The "1 Star" is not because they said "no" to us, we sort of expected that. But because they only cared about their equipment, and not the customers, the kids health of safety. They didn't ask if we were okay, why we came back so early, riding on someone else's truck with their raft tied to it. They only asked "where we found their raft". The whole experience was very bizarre. Some didn't want to talk to us, those who did shut us down with one sentence...

Fun, Friendly place to start our rafting adventure. Great parking and their equipment is top notch. The people that run the operation are professional and safety is top priority. The bus and van drivers are the best!
