At Clinch River Life, our goal is to operate our river floating business on scheduled days. However, when bad weather is forecasted, we prioritize our customers' safety and may need to cancel groups first thing in the morning. This early decision aims to give our customers ample time to make alternative plans.
We understand that weather predictions can change rapidly, and sometimes we might cancel on a day that turns out to be pleasant, or we may miss a sudden storm. These situations can be stressful and dangerous, leading us to err on the side of caution. We sincerely apologize if your group is canceled. While we never want to cancel, it is necessary when Mother Nature doesn't cooperate.
Please make a reservation by clicking on the Book Now on our homebpage. If this link is broken send us a private message with date and time request. This allows us to staff properly, have enough tubes ready and gives us the ability to get ahold of people if the weather is bad or if the river is too high, saving you the drive here.
