My husband and I have always been interested in scuba diving, but we didn't take the plunge (see…read morewhat I did there) until early 2025. We're so grateful we got connected with Denver Divers through their adaptive diving program. Even though I've had an interest in scuba diving, I was really nervous to actually try it. I was able to attend a Try Scuba event at Denver Divers, and was immediately hooked (see what I did again). I was paired with an instructor who explained the basics of diving, had time to try out the diving in the pool, and was able to ask questions afterwards. Once we decided to proceed, we were paired with an instructor, Vince, who put as totally at ease about diving. We were given an online training program, in person classes, and two training sessions. I felt comfortable asking questions and learning from my mistakes. I felt super prepared by the time I was getting certified. We ended up taking a group trip and got open water certified in Honduras. I ended up doing 23 dives and built some new core memories. It was wild to see all the different marine life (including a friendly little shark), to see coral up close, and to explore a shipwreck. On top of all of this, we also have started to build our community of divers. All of the instructors are so passionate about diving and really enjoy teaching others how to safely dive. We are looking forward to staying connected and to more future group dive trips.

We've had a wonderful experience with Denver Divers Swim School. The program is organized,…read morewelcoming, and truly focused on helping kids feel confident and safe in the water. A special thank you to Cheryl, the director, who runs such a thoughtful and well-structured program. You can tell a lot of care goes into how the school is organized and how families are supported. Our swim coach, Megan, has been fantastic. She is patient, encouraging, and wonderful with kids. We especially appreciate how patient she is with our son on days when he's not as excited about swimming or wants to test boundaries. Megan stays calm, consistent, and keeps realistic expectations while gently following through with directions and the skills they're working on. Her steady and encouraging approach has made such a difference. We're so grateful for the positive environment they've created and highly recommend Denver Divers to families looking for quality swim instruction. ‍

If you're in any way interested in sailing, I highly recommend the ASA 101-103 combo. Once you're on the water, you'll never want to stop! Also, as I took courses with them during the COVID 19 pandemic, it's important to point out the incredible level of professionalism and responsibility from their instructors. Always masked, always making sure students were masked, etc. If you thought you were doomed to a life off the water here in landlocked Colorado, look no further!

We gave this trip considerable thought before booking, and overall it was a memorable experience…read morewith several outstanding aspects, but also several areas that would benefit from meaningful improvement. First, the positives. The guides were exceptional. They were professional, hardworking, safety-focused, and consistently maintained a positive attitude despite challenging conditions. Peyton, in particular, was outstanding and deserves special recognition for his leadership, dedication, and ability to make the best of every situation. The guides are clearly the organization's greatest asset. That said, there were several operational and quality concerns that significantly impacted our experience. Our itinerary instructed us to arrive at 7:00 a.m., which we did. However, we did not depart until nearly 11:00 a.m. Much of that time was spent loading canoes and equipment, which became an all-hands effort involving guests. This lengthy delay reduced valuable time on the river. The quality of the equipment was another concern. After paddling approximately 15 miles on the first day, we arrived at camp around 5:00 p.m. only to discover that the rental tent was in poor condition. Tent poles had been repaired with duct tape, the zippers were broken, and the stove was not operational. Fortunately, the guide was able to improvise a repair, but these are issues that should have been identified during routine equipment inspections before the trip began. As a result of these delays, dinner was not served until approximately 8:25 p.m., when everyone was simply exhausted and ready to eat and sleep. Food was another area where expectations did not align with what was advertised. Prior to the trip, I specifically informed the owner that one member of our group was a selective eater who enjoys foods such as beef, chicken, pasta, and eggs. Despite that advance notice, dinner consisted of cheeseburgers on both the first and second evenings. While the food itself was well prepared, there was very little variety. The website references meals such as salmon and brisket, creating an expectation of a more diverse menu. Instead, our dinners consisted primarily of cheeseburgers and stir fry. Again, this is not a reflection on the guides--they prepared excellent meals with the ingredients they were given--but rather on the planning and provisioning process. River conditions were also challenging due to unusually low water levels. At multiple locations we were required to exit the canoes and walk them over shallow, rocky sections. While I understand that river levels are outside your control, it is something prospective guests should be made aware of in advance when conditions are expected to be unusually low. The most disappointing aspect of the trip was the take-out location. Rather than ending at a maintained boat ramp or designated landing, the trip concluded beneath a highway bridge in an area littered with trash. We encountered two homeless individuals living nearby, observed discarded garbage throughout the area, and I personally saw two used hypodermic needles. It was a startling way to conclude what had otherwise been a beautiful river experience. The steep path used to carry the canoes and equipment back to the vehicles was also covered in debris. Ironically, the two homeless gentlemen kindly assisted everyone in carrying gear up the hill, for which we were genuinely appreciative. However, the overall condition of the take-out site left a lasting negative impression. In summary, the people made this trip worthwhile. Your guides demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and outstanding customer service under difficult circumstances. However, there appear to be systemic quality control issues involving equipment maintenance, trip logistics, menu planning, and the condition of the launch and take-out facilities. Addressing these areas would substantially improve the overall guest experience and allow the outstanding work of your guides to truly shine. Despite the concerns outlined above, we do not regret taking the trip. The river itself was beautiful, and your guides worked incredibly hard to overcome challenges that were largely outside of their control. Our hope is that you view this feedback as an opportunity to strengthen the overall experience. With better equipment maintenance, improved logistical planning, greater menu variety, and a more suitable take-out location, this could easily become an exceptional trip from start to finish.

The guides, Adam, Calvin and McCartney were terrific and extremely efficient/affective and worked as a team to pitch camp, prepare food and clean up.

The end of the trip brought quite a sense of accomplishment to most of us, it was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

My friend and I decided to book on a super hot day over the summer and I can't imagine anything better to do in CO on a day like this. The water was considerably lower this day, so the staff recommended everyone take single tubes to ensure we didn't drag on the riverbed. They were super efficient from check in to lockers, safety instructions, and getting us on the bus, yet we didn't feel rushed at all. We laughed all the way down the river twice! Hope to go back soon.

I was dealt a terrifying experience while floating this "lazy river" this past Friday…read more My group was told this was a very relaxing, easy experience. We were told by staff that we "don't need to wear life jackets" because the water is so calm and easy. It was anything but. After the current picked up speed, I was met with a drop between large rocks. Unable to slow down or drift to the side and stop because of the current speed, I was whisked down the drop and my tube went flying out from underneath me. Attempting to hold onto my tube, I dislocated my shoulder and I am very thankful that was the worst of it. This place needs to encourage wearing life vests rather than encouraging folks NOT to. I am a decent swimmer and I got very lucky that I didn't hit my head on the rocks. Please please be especially aware of this warning before bringing your kids to this establishment. This "lazy river" was anything but. I should also add: as a very nice park ranger was driving me and my friends back to our car, one of the 2 staff members showed up and seeing me in a makeshift sling, clearly in severe pain, told me "just ice it and in a couple days it'll be fine." I spent the entire rest of the day at the hospital. Beware of this establishment.

I gotta say, good customer service and genuine friendliness at someone's place of work is not easy to find these days. There's a lot of bitter folks out there that should not be engaging members/customers as they give the business a bad name. Not this place, they were so friendly and while there are parts of the club that look a bit older this place is exactly what I would expect from a tennis club. It has a great tennis pro shop with a good amount of merchandise, the gym is a little above average and decently well equipped, especially for a tennis club. Many of the places I've belonged to that were more tennis oriented didn't have great gym facilities so it's nice that they have a good amount of equipment. Even being a member of 2 different country clubs, both very nice, neither of them had great gym facilities. The paddle ball courts are very nice and they have a few outdoor tennis courts that are well maintained along with 7, I believe, indoor courts with good lighting (important!). The men's locker room could definitely use some love as it's very old and outdated but it does have a hot tub in it that's decent sized and lockers and honestly it's about the same as any other tennis club I've been in. Can't wait to start plugging into the community of members and play some folks with equal skill level. I'm huge on how I am treated the moment I walk in the door (so incredibly important for businesses to give a good first impression), and so many places fail this test by either acting like you're bothering them by asking them to do their job or at least be somewhat kind and respectful to someone paying money to be a member at the place they work at, which is crazy to me I have to say this. I don't care how nice a place is if their staff is rude or they treat people differently based on how they look (in my case a lot of tattoos, which isn't a usual thing to see at country clubs and tennis clubs) then I'll not be joining. Point being, I was immediately won over by the lady at the desk who treated me as I would imagine she treats everyone that walks through those doors, with kindness and respect. It's weird that I even have to say this, but so many places just don't do well on this anymore. Overall, 5 stars for the staff doing a great job answering my questions and spending time to give me the low down on the club and definitely what I would expect, equipment and amenities wise, from a tennis club! Look forward to getting to know the folks here.
