Well 8 years later we are back, with our 7 year old joining us this time! And yeah, it's gonna be another long review so might as well have a seat and put your reading glasses on for this one! I guess since we are from Hawaii where it's hot all year long, we didn't think about how cold it would be in the fall and that there wouldn't be the same activities we had done on our first trip here 8 years ago when we were here during late summer. Nevertheless, we had a great time. We stayed in Tuck Away 3 again and this time we stayed for TWO nights! You know what that means too right? TWO NIGHTS OF ORANGE ROLLS!!! I was sooooo looking forward to the orange rolls at dinner. Dinner was inside this time, I guess because it's fall and we would all be freezing eating outside on the deck. It was still a multi course meal where you have to choose your options ahead of time, when making your reservation. They also have a few options for kids so my son got spaghetti one night and a cheeseburger with fries on the 2nd night. He was also still served all the other courses which was a nice surprise! The first night, dinner was: Course 1: Prime rib crostini (sooo good, even my son ate all of his!) Course 2: Orange rolls (y.u.m.) Course 3: Tortilla soup (delicious. The cook even put extra cheese on my son's soup, he absolutely loved it) Course 4: Pork loin and chicken. Both with mashed potatoes and vegetables. My husband had the pork and I had the chicken. I'm not a big mashed potatoes fan but these were yummy! And my sons spaghetti was made with angel hair pasta and altho it was a very large serving, he did a great job on it. Course 5: Cheesecake with blueberries. One of the servers, Rihanna, was just amazing, she brought my son some vanilla ice cream (his favorite) because he was not a cheesecake fan. The second night of dinner was: Course 1: Potstickers with sweet chili sauce. Since I chose the vegetarian entree option, I got vegetarian potstickers which were really yummy! I could taste black beans inside which I love. The regular potstickers had pork, also yummy. Course 2: Orange rolls Course 3: Broccoli cheddar soup Course 4: Eggplant Parmesan and shrimp scampi with linguini. Flank steak was also an option but I chose the vegetarian option tonight which was the eggplant. Course 5: Creme brûlée. My spoiled child was given vanilla ice cream again from Rihanna, she already had it ready for him! Service at dinner both nights was nothing short of amazing. We were lucky to have Rihanna serving both nights we were there, she was quick, attentive, and very kind. Kelly and Christy and the rest of the kitchen staff were awesome too, this would be a nice place to dine even if you weren't staying at the lodge! We had a very nice time here and will definitely be back again. Most likely during a warmer month so we can do some rafting!

Got to stay at a new accommodation called Treetops which was great. We have been to Morrisons several times before and are always pleased with the experience and willingness of staff to make sure we are comfortable. The Treetops is a house with a full kitchen , grand master bedroom , multiple additional rooms , deck and striking views across the valley. It was so roomy it seems like you could have had 12 people stay in the house. We will definitely stay here again. Almost forgot to mention the view from the living room through the vast cathedral style windows is breathtaking and makes you feel like you are in the treetops.....probably where they got the name ;)

Filthy windows

First of all, let me preface this with by saying that the grounds here are absolutely gorgeous and over all the lodge is really nice. On one hand, I understand that you are paying for the historical elements of this place. But on the other hand, I don't see that this is a $210 per night resort. At most, I would feel better paying about $100 for this room. We had a spider living in here with us, and I think that something bit me on my foot as I was sleeping. The windows are filthy, the balloon valances above your head where you sleep are super dusty. We were afraid to lower the drapes because we didn't want all the dust to drop on our heads. The wallpaper is peeling. The air-conditioner did not work and we had to figure out how to make it work because the staff didn't know (FYI, if you stay in this room and can't get the thermostat to work, try the breaker switch on the plug-in). This morning we went down to have breakfast and the night before the front desk forgot to mention that we would need to make a reservation. No big deal, we went down to the restaurant and the waitress sent us back to the front desk to make the reservations. There was no one staffing front desk; as if they didn't show up that day (we aren't sure- we called the Front desk earlier about something else and no one answered). Finally, the waitress just let us eat in the restaurant; it felt a little awkward like she was put out by it (not like she was upset with us, just like she was a little frazzled because a bunch of people started coming in looking for food and not being able to access the front desk staff). Also, when we checked in the night before, the front desk staff told us that there would be no problem if we wanted to have a late check out because we didn't get there until after 6 PM. The next day the front desk staff didn't want us to have a late check out. They made us feel like they would be put out to give us what they offered us. We are not new to staying at nice places. We travel quite a bit and have easily stayed at 15 or more hotels in the last year alone (in different parts of the country) so I feel like we know what we should get for our money. I would have no problem paying in the $100 range for this but I expect much more for the price.

What does the pricing on the cabins look like?

I stayed in cabin c8 and tuck away 2. Both were about 200/night. But they sleep way different amounts of people. Tuck away is bigger.

The guides!!! They were amazing, while they made it seem like it was an easy job it was anything…read morebut! First, they did an excellent job caring for our safety, and the set up everyday was beyond what we do at home. We got to a lunch spot and they'd have chairs set up, a full and plentiful spread with choices for gluten free or even just the more picky eaters. Dinners were delicious and they even had dessert every night. They were clean when preparing food, washing their hands often. Of and the first day, they noticed that we were early risers and offered to have coffee earlier if we wanted. The equipment was good, I can't compare to anything since this was my first rafting experience but there were no issues along the way. The duckies were a kick and Drew was careful to give detailed explanations on maneuvering the rapids (although I didn't follow them well, I was still okay). They also brought a ton of water and kept it cool, we could add Gatorade as we wished. 100% A+

I have a group of friends who do hiking trips together every few years, and this year we picked…read moreMorrisons Rogue River hike with support from guides on rafts. Booking the trip was relatively straightforward, but Morrisons highly encouraged us to do trip insurance because they don't offer refunds, which should've been the first red flag. Before I go too far, I do want to give a huge shout out to our guides Drew, Adam, and Johnny. They were amazing, and if I were rating just them, this review would be 5++ stars. They were friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cared about us and our hike. The rest of the Morrison's staff...not so much. There was an active wildfire in the area before we started the hike. We talked to Morrison's several times in the days leading up to the trip (before we flew out) and even asked about rebooking the trip for a different time, when the forest in the area wasn't on fire. We were assured that even though they were planning a few modifications to our itinerary (i.e. at least one day of rafting instead of hiking), they were confident that it would be a wonderful trip. Fast forward to the end of day 2 of our trip...and they had to cancel the rest of the 4-day hike due to safety concerns and, ultimately, a mandatory evacuation. To be clear, I'm not upset that we were pulled out of the woods, as that was an obvious safety decision. I'm mad because we specifically asked about rebooking for different dates and were told no. Morrison's got us back to their main lodge the following morning, at which point they considered themselves done with us. There was no refund, no help finding rooms for the night, and the last lodge we were in literally wouldn't even let us use the bathroom in the hour we were waiting for vans to get us back to safety. Morrison's did at least send us all an official email about the trip cancellation so that we could share that with our travel insurance (if we'd purchased it) to try to get a refund, but that was about it. Morrisons also made the guides tell us, rather than having anyone higher up in the company talk to us. From what we can tell, they also didn't do anything to help their guides (e.g. helping them find lodging) once the trip was canceled. I will also add that I'm vegetarian, and although there was a lot of very tasty vegetarian food available, vegetarian protein was extremely scarce. For dinner the two nights we hiked (~9 mi on day 1 and 15 mi on day 2), there was no source of vegetarian protein for me to eat. (The gluten free and dairy free people fared much better.) It would've been so easy to roast a portobello mushroom the way they roasted salmon, or to do some kind of meat substitute when they did ribs (they did have meat substitute at the lunches, and eggs or veggie patties at breakfast). I had brought some protein powder with me, but not enough to make up for dinners without protein. My friends ended up giving me the protein bars they'd brought for themselves to try to make up for the dinners. To Morrison's: please consider all macronutrients (carbs, fat, AND protein) when planning meals for your guests! Overall, I would absolutely go back to the river with any of the guides, but I'll never use Morrisons again, and I recommend that you don't either.

That said, I am 72 years old and made it through reasonably unscathed. The rafting trip is pretty easy, though you are expected to paddle. When going through the rapids you have to listen for his commands to bring your paddle in and grab onto the handle for dear life. Careful of sunburn - if you don't slather on the sunscreen you'll get fried. The kayaking is a little more challenging. I almost fell out of the kayak twice, but was able to self-right with my paddle. The youngest in our group was 15 years old, and all the younger kids I saw on the trip handled it with no issues. The kayaks are inflatable with no real keel so they are a bit challenging to steer, so make sure you are up for the challenge before committing. I had a blast and would do it again in a heartbeat!!

So essentially it's a crap shoot for any couple trying to plan ahead. Bummer, really poor customer service when I called to try to sort it out.

If you ever considered doing a rafting trip. THIS IS IT.

The best part of the trip was the crew! The crew - Kate, Nicole, Alec, Rachel, Ryan, Rudy, Cam - were all awesome and worked so very hard to make this trip incredible. As I was grumbling to myself that I had to get up at 7 am to drink my already-prepared coffee (with snacks) while waiting for my gourmet-level breakfast I didn't know was possible while camping - it occurred to me that the crew has already been up, have set up the breakfast snack table, brewed coffee, and are almost done with our breakfast. As I was grumbling about having to set up or put down the tent every day - I realized that the crew loaded and unloaded everything and set up camp and chairs before we even got to the site. They did all this without me noticing because the entire time they were friendly and kind and easy-going. These folks genuinely like being out, working together, on the river, sharing good vibes. If we could somehow bottle the enthusiasm, hard work, positive vibes they posses - all of world's problems would be solved. They set an excellent no non-sense (it *is* rapids and camping), fun, positive, uplifting and encouraging mood every single day. I felt safe under everyone's watchful eye. Everyone communicated clearly about what was expected from the river and from us (I'm an anxious person and this was such a big deal to me). Talking to other folks on this trip for whom this was not their first rafting adventure - apparently, once you go OARS, you don't go back. Seems like that company has figured out a way how to make great crews. Re-entering the real world has been tough. There's been 0 ospreys or bald eagles or turkey vultures (usually there's one or two or three somewhere around you on Rogue) on my morning walk and, dare I say - I miss "THE GROOVER". The most elegant, beautiful bathroom situation I have dealt with while camping. I also brought a semi-surly teenager against his will who, by the end, was begrudgingly "somehow" having a great time. This would absolutely not be possible without Kate, Nicole, Alec, Rachel, Ryan, Rudy, and Cam and the vibes they have set up. If I had all the money in the world, these guys would be flown out to anywhere they wanted to be so I can have rafting adventures with them there.. but for now, I just already want to go back to the Rogue and this time make it through the Coffee Pot without being thoroughly percolated.

I enthusiastically recommend this trip! Guides with decades of experience and a keen focus on…read moresafety.

Even when the bite was slow, Shane consistently put us in the best position to catch fish. Their operation truly sets the standard for what a guide service should be. Highly recommend -- 10/10.
