With trips designed to engage and excite even the grumpiest of teenagers, Mother Lode River Center is the perfect summer destination for your family adventures. That’s right, you heard us correctly. Fun for the whole family!
Your guides were very capable and took their responsibilities seriously. We were able to enjoy the beauty and thrill of the river without fear of unsafe conditions with our two kids on board.
