This was so much fun! I only wish it was longer cuz I never wanted to leave haha. My friends and I are planning to do this again a few more times this summer. Definitely make sure you were shoes cuz there is a short walk through the woods to get to the beginning of the water and there are rocks on the riverbed that will cut your feet if you fall off your float. Also remember to ask for a stick to steer with, we didnt get one and ran into a few branches and things we had to push yourself out of.
5 star service! Worth every penny to get to ride the beautiful Cuyahoga river!
The company was great. Talked with the owner while waiting for the pick up bus. He and his staff are very friendly. Would definitely recommend this place.
Had a great time just went a little fast because river was moving pretty good the day we went but all in all had a blast .....
Awesome outing! Was more than I expected very relaxing. Super fun, Great date!
Affordable and beautiful. Dont forget bug spray!

Had an amazing experience at float the river during fourth of july weekend! The river was clean, beautiful, and such a peaceful float :) Definitely recommend coming here if you want to lounge and enjoy some nature. We were able to rent a speaker through them but I would suggest bringing your own clips, water, waterproof phone case, etc. so you dont spend an absurd amount of money on those things. Ill be coming back!!!
Renting rafts to your customers and allowing them to connect a bunch of them together is irresponsible. Yesterday we were kayaking on the river and your massive groups were so wide that they blocked the river. We were unable to pass and they would not get out of our way. Perhaps a review of your policies amd policing your customers on the river at certain points would help. Something needs to be done; it is not only rude but dangerous.
Fun, relaxing and well organized!
It is a beautiful experience however, I did manage to pop 2 tubes in the river from underwater branches. We did call to see about possibly getting another tube but no help arrived. Thanks to a couple floating by, we did manage to get a second tube and I continued on until a second underwater brach popped the second. Thankfully it was the end of a very long journey. My advice, hat, swim shoes, and extra tube when you start out. I dont think I will be doing this again.
Amazing views & people. Overall just a good, relaxing couple of hours on the water.
So much fun and relaxing!

2021-08-18This is worth the hour drive from the west side. The river is MUCH shallower than any tubing I’ve been to. They did not have enough chains for us to clip together which did suck. Everyone was respectful of space. Bring your own clips to keep you together while you float!

2021-08-11There were 0 covid safe procedures in place. No asking people to wear masks and all the windows on the bus were shut. Buses were completely full. It would great but its just not ok to be so careless.

2021-08-01Great time. It takes about 1.5 hours +/- 15 minutes. The Float-the-riverians are super great. They are very chill and helpful. They explain everything you need to know and are they to help you if you need it. They drive you to the river and pick you up at the end and drive you back to your car. There is free parking too. They provide the tubes/ kayaks and life vests if you feel the need. Fun time. Go enjoy nature! Family friendly.

2021-07-24They canceled our trip an hour before we were to float the river and would not refund my money. They offered to allow us to come again however it was our family reunion and people were coming in from various states and were only able to do it that day. Basically they stole our money. They were not out any expense since they canceled. Be aware!

2021-07-25Don’t book with this business!!!! They cancelled our trip inside of 2 hours of our reserved time. We were actually there and didn’t know because there was no phone call. Only an email. Cancelled because river was too high. That’s fine but they refused to refund our money and offered voucher for the future. Problem is that we had 10 people, 8 of which were from other states so a voucher wouldn’t work for us. They basically stole money from us. They charged us without providing the service. They didn’t operate that day. So refunding our money would not have put them back at all. They stole our money. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM

2021-07-24Disappointing! We had a big family reunion and paid online ahead time. When we got to Float the River they said the water was too high. They said we got an email which we did but it was sent an hour prior to the reservation and from a random persons name. We asked for a refund because everyone was from out of state. We were told no because of a “no return” policy. They said we could return for up to a year but only some of the family live in Ohio and will be impossible to get together again in time. It feels like this company stole from us since it didn’t cost them anything to not allow us to float.

2021-08-21I would give this five stars however ALL the carabeaners were broken and the ropes were frayed or non existent. We got screamed at to hurry up while we desperately searched fruitlessly for a tube that was usable. We wanted to find one that we could all connect together, all while being rushed from 2 people in their lawn chairs. While we fumbled by the shore, untying broken twine and rigging random buckles, no one offered to help, instead rushed us along. We instead had to grab tubes with deflated, horribly muddy backs and hope for the best. For $20 plus fees, it wouldnt be hard to buy new carabeaners.
