Our story
One family, three generations.
A handful of canoes, a truck and a stretch of Buffalo River frontage grew into generations of the same family helping people experience the river. What started as a simple outfitting operation in 1991 is now a place where families come back summer after summer.
We are not a corporate park. We are a family-run river outfitter, campground, cabin and lodge destination on the Buffalo River in Waynesboro, Tennessee.
The River’s Waiting.
Grab your people. We’ll handle the rest.
