  1. 5.0 The Tubing Taxi (1 review)
    - A Hidden Gem in S. Royalton.
    River Rafting & Tubing
    The Tubing Taxi image
    We found this company on Facebook after another tubing company failed to respond to several of our inquiries. The Tubing Taxi is run out of a small campground in the tiny town of South Royalton. Boy, are we glad we didn't go with the other company! The folks at the Tubing Taxi responded right away, and we made reservations for the next day. We got there early (11 AM, I think) and our group was the only ones there at that time slot. The owner was very friendly, and she explained that they've been running the taxi for many, many years. We piled into the little bus for the short ~5 minute ride to the drop-off point. We asked for recommendations for lunch, and the owner suggested we try Worthy Burger, which we passed on the way. She specifically suggested we try the truffle fries. Once there, the owner/driver inflated our tubes, along with a little tube to carry our cooler (with some adult beverages), and we were off. It was our first time tubing, and it was a great way to spend ~2 hours on a hot day. The water is very clear and shallow enough to stand in most places. You will have to walk on occasion in the really shallow places, but most of the time we could just float along at our leisure. The river was calm and peaceful, with a little "rapid" here and there to keep things interesting. No one flipped over, and the only "issue" was that we kept thinking that we had passed the take-out point at the campground, but it was pretty obvious when we actually spotted the raft/marker that indicates the end of the journey. I would recommend this to anyone. It's inexpensive, fun, and on a side note, Worthy Burger turned out to be a great recommendation. The truffle fries were delicious, and they carry a nice selection of local beers. See more..

    It is a treat to go to the Joseph Smith Memorial during the Christmas season. As you enter the drive, you see beautiful displays of lights. It is very peaceful as you tune into a radio station playing Christmas music. All the displays are beautiful. But, the best is the cover bridge made with white lights. We are looking forward to next season’s display. See more..

    Food made from scratch taste better. Food made with care taste better. We make our own dressings, smoke our own meats, make our own ice cream. We also have an excellent selection of local beer and spirits to go along with our honest food. See more..
