The Kelleyland to Milltown section is one of a few paddling sections in this river system. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good places. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. Getting some good exercise and just hanging
    out with mother nature are great attractions for lots of people. The scenic beauty of Washington County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water make the trip here worthwhile. You can enjoy this stretch more if you take your time, so why not pack your camp stove too. You
can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.
