ferron's rogue river fun trips

We took an afternoon trip during spring break.I was a little hesitant (chicken) to go rafting, but Ferron provided a fun and safe trip. We traveled with 2 teenage boys and Ferron suggested they try the inflatable kayaks for a little more excitement.Great idea! The boys had so much fun, even experiencing a tumble into the river at one point. But we never worried for their safety. Ferron knows that river like the back of his hand, and his stories were very engaging. Thanks for a lovely time, Ferron and Sue. I'm sure we will be back again.

Booked raft rentals through Ferrins for a large birthday group awhile ago. Equipment was good, just not the most organized departure experience. Good prices and very friendly staff did not use them as a guide service just for the rentals and transportation.

Last year, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our full day guided trip so we brought the kids back this year. Although the smoky air from recent wildfires in the area put a damper on the beautiful scenery this time, it didn't stop us from having a great time. We are dog people and enjoyed Pupeye and Curry's company on our trip what with Curry and son Killian entertaining each other with their games of chase. We are so happy we chose Ferron's because of their excellent customer service - they treat you like family (thanks Ferron for the awesome fresh tomatoes!) and Ferron is so highly respected on the river (everyone seems to know him). Highly recommended.

We had a family gathering of 8 with 1 child under 6. We floated with Ferron what a pleasure it was. He is very knowledgable about the river and of course a great guide. We felt safe and knew that if anything would happen we would be in good hands. The kayaks were a blast most everyone had a turn in either a single or double. They have this down to a science. From first contact to completion of the trip it was easy and everything their website said it would be. Thanks Ferron and Sue!!!!

Great instruction for safety at the beginning. Drop off and pick up very smooth. Good price. We will do it again next summer!

We went on this River Trip with some friends. It was fantastic. Extremely well organized with knowledgable tour guides. Couldn't ask for a more positive experience. We got to see some wildlife on the trip down the river including a black bear a dear and a blue herring on the river bank. I have some pictures. Only took the picture of the bear after we floated by. Fantastic.

Just got back from a great trip down the Rogue with Ferron's from Galice to Graves Creek. It was a blast of a day. We had a group of 20. Ferron's provided a great guide. He handled the size of the group with aplomb and kept it interesting for adults and the 7 children. No problems whatsoever for families. Take your time along the river. We stopped for lunch and swimming and diving. Saw all sorts of wildlife including osprey, mergansers, and even a black bear cooling down on the shore too. Everyone had a great time. Ask for Wayd as your guide.

This was my two teenagers first time kayaking on whitewater and they had an awesome time! Shawn was great both as a guide sharing knowledge of the area and having fun with the kids by teaching them the proper way to water fight using their paddles, (I think he won their waterfights). I really appreciated his concern for their safety by ensuring they understood how to manage their kayaks through white water and by staying close and down river from them so that if they did have a mishap he was ready to take care of them. Was a beautiful day with some great sights. Lunch was wholesome with some nice fresh vegetables and homemade cookies and salsa. I would highly recomend Ferron's team if you want a fun experience on the Rogue River.

Ferron's is a mom and pop business and we chose to support them. It was a choice worth making! We had Wade as our guide and he was friendly and had a good sense of humor. The kayaking was really fun. My mom and I were going down argon in the kayak and she fell out and came up laughing! They provided sodas and water. We had a lot of fun!

"No problema" say Ferron and Sue. We can do that! Between Sue's smile, Ferron's stories, and the spectacular scenery you could easily fall in love with this place. Sue, Ferron and the rest of the crew have been on the Wild and Scenic Rogue for years and know the ins and outs, ebbs and flows of both the river and surrounding area. Want to take your dog (s) on the river with you? "No problema"! Want to stay in a treehouse? "No problema"! Can't miss with these guys... best in OR!

My daughter (10) and I recently booked a half day trip with Ferron's crew to float down the Rogue River to Galice from the Hog Creek boat landing to Galice. With only 24 hours notice, Ferron put the trip together and assigned Wayd to guide the trip. Offered a two person inflatable kayak to go along with the larger raft, I decided to introduce my daughter to rafting in that way. Wayd was great at pointing out the wildlife on the river (blue herons, ravens, turkey buzzards, osprey, eagle, turtles, beaver dams, etc) as well as talking about the natural history and hydraulics of Hellgate Canyon. This is the gentle stretch of the river, with rapids that provide enough thrills to keep a newbie's interest without inducing terror. A great way to start a beginner on the river. Can't wait to go back and tackle the more challenging lower Rogue, or at least to let one of Ferron's crew tackle it!

relaxed and attentive staff... just as they should be. I recommend them to everyone

We rafted with Ferron 13 years ago, and then again last week. Same family run, easy going, let us know what you want group of people. Willing to work with you to make your outing whatever you want. Be sure to use the inflatable kayaks; they are so much fun. Took 4 girls, 10-14 years old and one said it was the best day of her life. Even though she got dumped on one of the rapids!! Highly reccomend.

Ferron, Sue and the crew are some of the best guides on the Rogue! They are so professional without losing the fun, imaginative, creative aspect of being on the river. Their home is the base for the company, meaning their house and the river. True river warriors. Some of the most interesting people on the water. If you're debating what company to go with, definitely go with Ferron. Disappointment won't even cross your mind.
