"What a great family movie! The kind of movie they used to make! John Denver was a man of many gifts as seen in this film. How he is missed. This is a must for any JD fan collection!"
Affable "Generic" family-in-wild movie

"If there's such a thing as a "generic" family-in-the-wilderness movie, this would be it. It's amiable, expertly done, with all the expected ingredients (yes, even a childbirth scene!). There's added interest, of course, in the fact that this was John Denver's last film (a fitting sendoff), and maybe the last project for narrator Bian Keith as well."
Walking Thunder

"This movie is in the same genre as the old Disney movies like Old Yeller, a movie the entire family can watch together. Its about growing up. Its hopeful, and can open up the doors for conversation, if just one person tries. I've watched it with several family members who are not necessarily John Denver fans and they liked it."
