Amazing experience from start to finish. Booking was convenient and seamless with excellent input and advice from Julie. The rafting trip was awesome! Perfect balance of white water rafting and floating in a 3 hour excursion. The views were spectacular and our guide River was a rock star. We will definitely be returning for another trip down the river and look forward to seeing all of the passionate and cool staff again!

My husband and I took the white water rafting trip last summer and it was a blast!
This was my first time rafting, in which I was a little nervous but our rafting leader guide assured me all was going to be OK and taught me how to hold the paddle so that I wouldn't get tossed out of the raft (definitely helped alleviate the fear!)

It was the highlight of our trip, we both really enjoyed it! My husband even got out and floated down a portion of the river alongside the rafting, super fun! Highly recommended this company for white water rafting :)

Also, get the photos afterwards! They are great to look at and provide for awesome memories

I brought a group of 7 rafting on the Kennebec and we had an amazing time! I called to add people to the original reservation and the staff updated the reservation and emailed a new invoice without issue. The directions to the location were spot on (4.8 miles from the flashing moose sign). Our guide Haley was amazing. She was funny, entertaining and an expert at navigating the river and getting us lots of action. The meal at the end was just what we needed and definitely a selling point of the trip.

We did not stay overnight at the location, so I cannot speak to the quality of the rooms.

We had an awesome time! Our guide, River, was knowledgeable and excellent. A born leader. He made us feel confident, which was important for newbies like us. The Kennebec River is just beautiful. The BBQ at the end was delicious, and the Inn by the River was clean and comfortable with friendly, welcoming staff. Thanks for a great experience!

The rafting crew was so hospitable to my group. They made sure everyone’s needs were met. The guides River and Jake were very helpful and fun to be around. During the bus ride up to the drop off point they hung around the group and made conversation fun and lively. Jake was our spectacular guide that taught us how to champion the river! Being super informative and fun he was also all for our safety. 10/10 recommend the experience with that company and people!

Been coming for over a decade. We have always had a great time. The guides and staff are awesome and do all they can to make the trip a memorable one. Boatman's is a fun place to hang out and have food and drinks. The guides are knowledgeable and we feel safe having them guides us on the river. God willing we'll continue for many many years!

Our large group (mixed - kids and adults) camped on the property, and did a rafting trip on the Kennebec. What a great experience to have together! The staff was that perfect combination of adventurous, fun, skilled and professional. We were in good hands. We were divided into three boats, and our guides were K2, Parker and River (yes, his actual name) - all wonderful. River led our boat - pointing out wildlife, telling stories about the area, teaching us about the river, giving clear instructions when needed as well as encouragement, and also making the experience as fun as possible. This guide truly loves his work and sharing the experience with folks. Highly recommend! And I'll add that all the staff in the office, at the cookout, and in the bar were all friendly as well - so appreciated.
