“You are doing yourself a disservice if you go anywhere else for your outdoor sporting needs. I originally shied away from the store because I was thinking: small boutique = insanely high pricing. Not the case at all! This store has a fantastic selection, knowledgeable staff, and the pricing was lower than what I was seeing online or at the large chain stores. If you have an outdoor adventure you are preparing for, spend some time in River Sports. You won’t regret it!” – Holly, Maynardville
