    might find the rivers here more forgiving, so don't forget that rivers here are less demanding. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The Aziscohos Dam to Wilsons Mills section is one of a few paddling sections in this river system. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but
if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. This section of Magalloway River in Oxford County is 2 miles long and is a class III-V section of whitewater according to American Whitewater.
