Northeast Rafting - West Forks, Maine

What a great rafting trip. We did the Kennebec river on short notice. Chris was a fantastic guide, as good as I have ever had on a trip. Prep, navigation and excitement done well. I recommend going from the forks location as it shortens the bus ride significantly. The meal at the end was superb

We had an awesome time with U.S.Rafting the staff really was friendly and knowledgeable. We had the pleasure of having the “legend” Jonny Mac as our guide he was great! Laid back guy with a good sense of humor felt super comfortable with him as our guide. After rafting we gathered for a bbq back at headquarters was a great day! with great people! would definitely recommend we will certainly be returning!

We checked in very easily with normal waivers. We got our so you don't die training.
Then a short bus ride. Passed a couple of nice spots on the way. The dam was impressive and the 9/11 upgrades are nice. It was very easy to decend with the raft. My wife is 5 foot and she had no issue.
Very easy boarding situation the next 30 min were very enjoyable class 4 rapids. Even a few places to do a little float rapids.
The river flowed nicely with safety gear placed all along the route. I felt very relieved knowing that they took safety so seriously.
Adrenaline rating top 30min was 4 out of 5
Bottom part of run was class 2 and 3 moving quickly. Couple nice spots strategic camera shots.
Ive been on trips where lunch is on the river. Usually some burgers or hot dog etc. Not really awesome.
Honestly the way US rafting does it you get a delicious meal with steak, green beans, baked beans etc. Was great because while we ate they showed all the great pics for us.

Great experience TY

We took a four day weekend and came up snowmobiling. The lodge was cozy and very nice and we had a blast thank you Bill for being so accommodating and for letting us have fun with not worrying about anything else. I would highly recommend this place for anybody contemplating or planning a trip up north. West Forks is a small town but everyone up there is very nice. US Rafting is my spot now and I'm looking forward to making this an annual or semi annual winter trip. I can't wait to go rafting now with them now !!! see you in a couple of months

This company is the best! I have been 4 times with US Rafting and wouldn’t go through any other company. Equipment is always clean and in top shape, check in is fast and efficient, lunch afterwards is always delicious. Most importantly though, THE GUIDES!!!! Seriously these guys couldn’t get any better. It’s always loads of fun, great humor, and super upbeat the entire trip. My family and I will absolutely be back again!

U.S. Rafting is THE BEST. I had the best time ever with Billy and the rest of the U.S. Rafting Crew. I was a first time rafter, and they made it fun and exciting. I would recommend anyone heading up North to raft contact them. The accommodations were excellent, very clean and spacious. We already have plans to come back this summer.

I started rafting to fulfill a lifetime bucket list item and developed a true love for it because of my amazing experiences with US Rafting. I just finished my third trip and have already started booking my next. I've been on the Kennebec River three times and the Dead River once. The guides ( Tom, Walt, Johnny Mack and Ray to name a few) make the experiences and I trust them impeccably.

Planning a trip is wicked easy. Email communication is fast and accurate- plenty of information provided. The Outpost is truly the best place to stay- beautiful accommodations and a variety.

I will only ever raft with US Rafting or companies they recommend.
