We all went to breakfast at their restaurant. Delicious & huge portions. Reasonably priced as well. There's a large hot tub, game room, swimming pool & pool table. Nice cozy couches in this area as well. The staff were some of the nicest people I have ever met. This is an all season place. It is definitely worth the trip!

We had a party of 12 staying at the Airbnb lodging from Friday to Sunday and participated in the rafting on Saturday. Weather is hard to plan for but in August, it felt like the chances of warm/hot weather would be decent. Unlucky for us, it was quite cloudy and chilly-hovering 60's. Rafting Experience 5/5 - Everybody had a great time!! Strapped on helmet and lifejackets to start the day and then took a bus up the river. Each boat had a 'guide' and our guide (Bryan/"Viking") was awesome. He told us great stories and facts throughout the ride and helped carefully steer us through some intense rapids. The last.. maybe half hour.. of the rafting was fairly quiet and not intense at all. This would've been fine if it was hot and sunny but the weather was super cloudy, chilly, and windy. Not ideal when you're drenched. Airbnb Lodging 3/5 - Plenty of clean beds that could fit a large party. They also had a large dining room table and an open kitchen. We were not able to get Wi-Fi unfortunately and the tv didn't connect to anything. Not a fan of the carpet flooring in one of the two bathrooms. Food 5/5 - They served lunch right after the rafting experience and the food was great!! We had the option of beef, chicken, and vegetarian. Came with rice pilaf, coleslaw, bread roll, and a slice of cake. Everything was yummy, some folks were able to get seconds as any leftovers were going to be tossed. Service 5/5 - Staff were all super friendly and happy to help. Knowing we're not from the area, they tried to offer us solutions to any problems we ran into. Great group of folks to work with. Location.. 1/5 - We had a huge group (3 cars) going up from Boston after work on a Friday (about 4.5-5hr drive) so we all got to the area very late at night. The drive wasn't that bad but finding the Airbnb Lodging was very difficult. Since it was after work hours, late at night, nobody picked up when we tried calling for assistance. There are just not enough guidance around the area to show customers where to park or how to find their lodging. We had to circle the site a few times before we realized where the building was. On our second night, we encountered a couple that were lost and had trouble looking for their lodging area.

The first day was the full river trip and the second day was the ultimate on the Kennebec River. Both days were excellent!! It was my and my 16 year old year's first time white water rafting. We absolutely loved it!! We had a big group, 15 people the first day, 19 the second with a large range of ages 6-65 years and mixed of experienced and non experienced.

I was super impressed with their operation, we were trained, given gear, and put onto the bus to head to the top of the release point. The ride up was filled with good stories and information for the day. The river was fantastic, we were able to hit all but one of the features on the river. We worked hard and the reward was thrilling. When we got to the end of the run we hopped out, took our rafts up and out of the way, went back to their facility and had a wonderfully prepared meal with options of steak, chicken, or veggie burger. Pro tip, they sell 6 packs inside. If you are looking for an awesome adventure try to get here on a release date! Thats not on our list!

The staff was kind and patient even though I'm sure it was annoying to have us show up in the midst of the safety lecture! Our guide Eric, came with a total of 32 years experience, such a positive and easy going attitude, and an aura of joy! Having never been rafting before I was quite nervous, but after just a few minutes getting with Eric, and observing him in the boat, I knew I was in the best hands possible. What I feel is important to know is that, the people you choose to spend the day rafting with-in your boat-should be people you feel comfortable with. There was a single man that joined our group, and because of his very potent body odor, inability to allow the guide to speak at times, and his obtrusive wooden oar, my experience felt slighted at times. This man meant no harm and is just going about his life, I just wish I could have slapped some deodorant on him Anywho-Eric did a fantastic job doing what he does so well...GUIDING...he read his group, got to know our strengths, and then allowed us to have a very memorable and cherished experience!! I would have to say that the lunch served at camp, after the trip, was less than desirable. Whether you decide to take a day trip or stay overnight, I highly recommend Moxie!

Dinner and breakfast cooked over an open fire every day, with an impressive and delicious menu. This trip was definitely a splurge for our family, but well worth it.

They put together great river trips, with home cooked meals over an open fire that rival what many home cooks do with a fully equipped kitchen.

They teach the canoeing moves you need, and adapt their teaching to the level of their clients. Safety is first but not in a way that feels oppressive. They are terrific!

Our guide Tim was great, he was very knowledgeable, answered all of our questions, and made us feel safe while still having a blast. The rapids were fun, the food was surprisingly good, all in all a good time. I take away one star because, while Tim was excellent, a few of the other guides seemed to have attitudes. One spoke sharply to me and my friend, as well as to several other guests. I know they do this trip every day, but it shouldn't be that hard to put on a happy face while guests are around. This took away from the experience a bit because it made us feel like we were inconveniencing them, but overall I give a good review because it was VERY fun and Tim was a great guide. There was another guide, I think his name was Dalton, that was very funny and cheerful and had a great attitude.
