Went on the Zip Line Canopy tour with a group of friends just this weekend. Stayed overnight in the cabin called "The Grey Fox". Hot tub on the back deck was WONDERFUL! Lots of construction going up around the resort main area but I can see they are really planning on making this a completely fun activity area. The Zip... More

I went for Bridge Day and to raft the Upper and Lower Gauley and the New River. It was the best rafting experience I have had. The guides were great, the accomodations (we camped) were easy, and it was really nice to have a bar on the grounds so we could hang out afterwards with the guides.

I’m really trying but can’t think of one bad thing to say about Ace Whitewater. They have many senior river guides who really know what they are doing, their facility is the best anywhere and gets better year to year. Ace has a lot of adventure and relaxation options for those who prefer to stay off the river, and is... More

We got a good package over Bridge Day Weekend. Rafted the New River on Sat. and then the Upper Gauley on Sun. Was prepared for the worst and surely thought our boat would tip, but never did. Felt VERY safe and had a lot of fun! Did not stay on the grounds, but heard that it's quite the party nights... More

The Upper Gauley is a whitewater adventure not for the faint of heart...but boy is it worth it! I have been to the Gauley twice already with other outfitters. Ace seems to be one of the bigger companies, with a large campus including a bar/restaurant, camping area, and lakeside "play area". We booked a double Upper Gauley run for a... More

Had a great overnight trip with friends. We stayed in a 12 bunk cabin which was screened in as to let in plenty of cool evening air. The cabin was clean and confortable. The Dining hall was clean...well maintained and confortable. The evening meal I thought was a bit costly untill I saw the spread. $20 gets all you can... More

We love ACE Adventure Center. My friend and I are two single women living in the DC area and we use ACE Adeventure Center as our annual "Anyone can camp - and we can, too!" getaway, as well as for our bi-annual whitewater rafting trip. For the cost, the tremendous guides, the fabualous food at the Lost Paddle (or the... More

Overall, I have mixed feelings about Ace. We rafted with them for 2 days in Gauley Season (one day each for Lower & Upper Gauley) and had a blast because the river is incredibly thrilling. On the other hand, we were disappointed in our guides and are not sure we would choose to raft with Ace in the future. We... More

We did a very easy rafting trip with young kids. The guides were very accomodating, the logistics flowed smoothly, equipment seemed to be in good shape. The price was not cheap, but very reasonable. Little extras along the way (snacks, drinks, a nice fire at the lunch break) made for pleasant extras. We were very pleased to find out that... More
