You are welcome to arrive on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. Friday check in will begin at 6:00PM. You may arrive early and set up your camp. New this year for guests arriving on Friday night we will be offering the Early Bird Meal Package, which includes Friday night dinner and Saturday morning breakfast ($25.00 per person). If you prefer to bring your own dinner, the grill will be lit at 7:00PM for your cooking convenience. If you arrive on Saturday morning please plan to arrive at least 30 minutes before your orientation time. Please note that you are to go to the Yolo County Lower Site Camp Ground not to Cache Canyon River Trips physical address in Rumsey.

On Saturday Morning you will get an orientation which will cover basic raft handling and safety instructions.  You will then fill out your release form. Be ready to hand your release form to the bus driver as you board the bus. After you are fitted with your life jacket you will board the bus to our put-in location where your rafting adventure begins. Remember to leave your car keys with us.

Lunch will be served camp side at the Lower Site Camp Ground. Our staff will be at the creek to help you in and out of your raft. After lunch you will enjoy the rest of your trip as you guide your raft down Cache Creek to the Rumsey Ranch pullout. Our beach staff will be creek side to help you out of your rafts. Once on land, you may enjoy cold lemonade and a snack while you wait for the bus to take you back to camp.

Back at camp you may do some exploring, play horseshoes or just relax and listen to the sounds of nature until dinner. When the sun goes down you will be treated to a slide show of your rafting experience, a starlit evening of campfire (weather permitting) and entertainment.

On Sunday Morning you will awake to the smell of camp coffee while the camp staff prepares your breakfast.  After breakfast two shuttles will leave to the put-in site where you may begin your second day of rafting. 

Lunch will again be served at the Lower Site Camp Ground. Our staff will be at the creek to help you in and out of your raft. After lunch you may enjoy the rest of your rafting trip to the Rumsey Ranch pullout. Our beach staff will be creek side to help you out of your rafts.

Back at camp you are free to stay as long as you like. Take your time packing up. When it’s all over tell all of your friends what a great time you had. And plan to visit us again!
