5.7 stars.

Poor girl. She has been stuck in the same film for the past 6 years. I will start by saying things were looking pretty good when she was in the Darcy stories, the first one was not bad, but they ended it in 2018 with 'Marrying Mr. Darcy', which was a flop. She has appeared in a couple good Christmas stories, the past several years, but that's about all.

Her Hallmark choices have been a bust since then. 2020: 'Love in the Forecast', felt somewhat fresh, but I had no idea the direction her "wilderness" career would be headed. That was the first taste of her outdoorsy characters, and like I said, it was not too bad. But then they copycat it with 'Chasing Waterfalls' in 2021, which was actually an improvement, but then 'Warming Up to You', same song, third verse, 'Marry Me in Yosemite'-fourth verse, 'Love in Zion National...'-fifth, and now 'A Whitewater Romance'-sixth. Please make this the final attempt at the same character. I actually thought she might actually be the same character, literally, which would have been more agreeable for me. At least it would contain some cohesion and a rational explanation for the repetitive out-of-doors theme. Give Busby a break guys and let her expand her options - out with the outdoors and in with the indoors.

For anyone who may be entering the workforce and getting their first corporate job - I wanted to set some expectations in case you've watched a lot of these movies. There will never be a time when you literally have a contest to get a promotion. If you do get promoted, it will never be announced in a group of people without your knowledge - especially if you are relocating to Paris or to a quaint small town. The process is much less dramatic, but at a minimum, someone will discuss your salary. You are much more likely to be assigned a cube instead of a corner office. If co-workers are involved romantically, it's probably going to be in secret and you will never kiss in front of your team.

I'd give this movie zero stars, but unfortunately that's not an option, so one star it is. I watch every new Hallmark movie that comes out with my 98 year old grandmother whom I care for. So being a 41 year old man, Hallmark movies aren't so much my thing, but I've come to start enjoying them. Well, most of them. This movie without a doubt, is the most cheesy unbelievable one I've watched in years. Grandma who loves absolutely everything Hallmark and smiles the whole time she watches them hasn't even grinned once, lol. Yes, it's that bad. Busby (spelling?) is playing the same character she plays in every role she has ever played, but it's even more cringy this time some how. There's no chemistry whatsoever between her and the lead male. Her character is so unlikeable, yet he somehow falls for her, of course. The entire story line is poorly written, and the acting from the other characters matches it. I get Hallmark movies aren't always believable, that they're supposed to be kind of out there and uplifting and fairytale-ish, this one fell well short of even that. On somewhat of a separate note, Hallmark rub some dang dirt on your actors! People don't camp out in the wilderness for days at a time without a spec of dirt on them or a hair out of place. I'm basically just ranting at this point so I'll wrap it up, I wouldn't wish the viewing of this movie on my worst enemy. Save your self the time and skip this one! There are much more productive things to do like staring out the window and watching your lawn grow or watching paint dry.

So I have watched this movie for 40mins, that's 39mims too much. I just couldn't do anymore.

The backdrop was stunning that is the only positive I have.

Hallmark generally want us to suspend belief so I did expect a ridiculous storyline BUT so many holes in this story plot - number one who goes on a wilderness trip on one day's notice! With no research! And without appropriate gear! And why would Matt find anything attractive about Maya - she's stupid judgemental and hello you are out in nature tie your hair back!!

The main problem with this film is the lead. Cindy will always only be a Hallmark actress she only has a limited range she always acts the exact same way in every role she acts in. Dull and predictable.

Absolutely the worst plot and the cheesiest acting I've ever seen from Hallmark. Cindy Busby seemed very trite and fake the entire movie. The overall plot and theme of this show was confusing and never really explained well. There was no real chemistry between Busby and Hollingsworth. The other actors were just as bad with no real direction or believability. The only star was given for the scenery. I noticed Busby produced this movie and I hope that's not the reason it's so bad. She is normally well liked by me in most rolls she has had especially in Heartland. There is a lot of repetitive storylines on Hallmark. This definitely wasn't that but failed miserably at trying to find an alternative to those repeats.

I am just surprised that the aggregate IMDb rating is so high. As of this writing, there are 8 other 1 star reviews and the highest review is a 2 star. It's well deserved.

I'm not a fan of Cindy Busby. She has no depth and usually seems to play the same flaky people. Interesting that the one notable exception for her is also with Benjamin Hollingsworth in Another Christmas Coincidence (aka Godwink: Meant for Love). Busby's performance here is bad even for her. She is so over the top, especially in the first few scenes.

Another reviewer noted that you don't send someone on a wilderness experience with no notice (less than a day). Then you blame her for being late when she had to fly over half the country to get there!!! And penalize her in a break-the-ice game as a result. If Busby's earlier scenes didn't already have me upset, this just adds on. The story continues to be bad for a while yet and it makes Mia into a very unlikeable character. Such a wimp. Mia is so lame that it might have been funny, but I didn't laugh at all. You know that will change as the story goes on.

So many of these movies have a boss ranging from annoyingly demanding to downright unethical. Marilyn is the latter. I found it disgusting that she suggests making one of Mia's colleagues lose his glasses in order to handicap him in the competitions.

BTW: such great cellphone service in the middle of this wilderness. And at least one key plot point is based on it.

I really don't know why this movie has such terrible reviews, because my aunt and I highly enjoyed it!!!! Cindy's character Maya didn't come across as annoying to me at all, she was just unknowledagable about outdoorsy stuff there's a difference. I absolutely love every movie Cindy is in, she nails her role everytime and this role was no different Cindy's acting was spectacular!!!! Ben was really, really fantastic in his role as well!! The whole cast did an amazing job, and my aunt and I laughed a lot! The scenery was beautiful, the two leads had marvelous chemistry, what's not to love?!? I don't know what people are expecting, I saw all of Cindy's Instagram stories and they shot the very first scene last from 12 am to 3 am, they have early call times. So if the cast's acting wasn't up to your standards, just know that they worked tirelessly on this film for all of us. And sometimes it's hard faking not being tired.

Even the cute and likeable Benjamin Hollingsworth could not save this dreary and boring effort. Having to accept the premise that a woman that apparently has an important job and is good at it would be forced to participate in an activity that is uncomfortable, and then be so completely out of her depth is just ridiculous. And she alternates between being quite rude and overly friendly to the others there. Hallmark needs to stop using Cindy so much. Her last few movies have been disappointing. Her dialogue and way of interacting seems very stilted and not believable. The rest of the actors added little to the story and were not even all that likeable. All in all, just not a good effort and not worth watching more than once, if you can even get through it the first time.

Please writers...stop insulting women by creating scripts that require them to act like they are 2 yr olds. Have deleted too many Hallmark movies that feature women behaving like less than intelligent human beings...which fits in with the laughs you sometimes get when you say you watch Hallmark movies. The plot lacked any believable logic. Could only stand a half hour of this. Scenery was beautiful but could not save this show or entice me to continue watching. So if Hallmark wants to appeal to a larger audience, require your writers to present adults as adults and create realistic plots. Thankfully, many Hallmark movies meet this criteria.

I love Hallmark movies and get they are not realistic but this movie is ridiculous. No business event would invite you to a retreat with a day's notice. And if it's a team building event for a national company, there would be more than 4 individuals. Plus they have never worked with each other and don't appear they will be working side by side afterwards. The concept of expecting such an inexperienced person to participate in camping, whitewater rafting, and other outdoors events with no guidance is absurd. How did this show get approved and make it all the way to production? I couldn't handle it any more agter 40 minutes.

Seriously. What did I just watch?

This was one of the worst Hallmark movies I have ever watched. I had low expectations going into it per the previews, but wow, this one was bad.

I typically enjoy Cindy Busby and Ben Hollingsworth, especially when they were in a Godwink movie together but their lack of chemistry in this one was cringeworthy. The plot and acting were horrible. Busby's character was unlikeable, and the storyline was confusing and unrealistic. The ending was incredibly ridiculous. Surprise, I want you two in Paris. Really? Why?

Also, Busby's character came off as foolish; it was difficult to watch. The scenery was the only upside. This is definitely not a rewatch.

There are so many actresses out there and yet they keep putting Cindy Busby in these park movies. It's been done, let's give someone else a go!!! Who? Let me give some suggestions... Natalie Hall, Julie Gonzalo, Christy Carlson Romano, Scout Taylor Compton, Torrey Devito, Lalaine, Haylie Duff, Troian Bellsario, Bianca Lawson, Katelyn Tarver, Chloe Rose, Maggie Lawson, Annalynn McCord, Sara Paxton, Alexa PenaVega, Vanessa Lachey, or Tammin Sursok!

Anyone but Cindy Busby and Rhiannon Fish!

The scenery is great and Benjamin was fine but again let's get some different actresses in these park movies.

First let me say that I am NOT a Cindy Busby fan. She always plays the SAME character ... all the way back to playing Ashley on Heartland. I set my DVR for this - with VERY low expectations. My instinct was correct. I watched for 60 minutes - and deleted it off my DVR. Bad plot. Bad acting. Just plain stupid. Benjamin Hollingsworth was severely miscast in this movie. He does better playing an innocent young man (as he has done in many past roles). Believing him as an outdoorsy type was a stretch. The supporting cast was bad also. Come in Hallmark! Give us better movies with better storylines and actors. This one was just plain and simple BAD.

The premise is fine, but typically formulaic. While I'm sure Cindy Busby is very nice, it seems she's caught in the same formula and it's very tiring. After a while, all I can hear is her squeaky voice whining about some challenge she's facing.

This could have been a much better movie with a different actress, hopefully, someone that displays more bravado. The writers should work to break the formula and incorporate a little less cutesy and more drama. I don't specifically dislike the happy ending, but the route to get there seems like a hike in a flat trail, whereas a good hike incorporates hills, narrow passes, and tripping hazards. Let's see more like that.

When the actress is clearly in her late 30s, but the scrip has her acting like a 19 year old... Its embarrassing. I am not sure why Hallmark thought this was a good story. In theory, it could have been a significantly better tv movie with a different cast. And a better script. The locations are stunning...but honestly, no one is going to fall in love with this girl. Including the audience. The scene with the eggs nearly killed me! At $10 a dozen (2025)...whose idea was it to waste eggs (food!!) instead of using arrows or water balloons to hit a target? Looks ridiculous and elitist. Give this one a miss!

I don't think there are any spoilers, this is a Hallmark movie after all.

The ONLY reason to watch this "film" is for the scenery. I don't know why Hallmark continues to invest in movies where the female lead, which I assume we are supposed to root for, comes off as a complete as idiot. So much so there is no way she could hold the job she has. And as the comic relief she figures French perfume will work as bear repellent- give me a frakin break. That's how totally clueless this idiot is. No redeeming qualities whatsoever. When all else fails the actress screws her face up as a signal to those of us still trying to watch this train wreck, shes uncomfortable. The actor isn't given much better material to work with -- coming off as an arrogant jerk. Yet somehow totally unbelievably in the last 20 minutes because this is a Hallmark movie they realize that they are attractive to each other and have fallen in love. I guess that's what you would call a plot twist.
