Grand River Rafting .

This family business began in 2006​,​ when my son Chad suggested we start an outdoor adventure company. I thought we would “lose our shirts”… because there were already 8 other outfitters on the Grand River. Our approach had to be different! We started out with 4 rafts​,​ doing floating classrooms with minimum paddling and maximum learning.We excelled at the art of being found. Hired people of passion. Developed effective staff training. Partnered and used our success… to help others become successful. Today​,​ between May to October​,​ over 50​,​000 people experienced the Grand River with us. Our goal is to make paddling the Grand… as easy as possible. We have a capacity to host over of 2​,​000 people per day with a staff of 50.As for customer service​,​ we are ranked in the top 10% of outdoor adventures in the world by TripAdvisor. Getting big was never our goal​,​ getting it right… was! Garth Pottruff
