The starting location is a reasonable drive from Lebanon, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. Croyden Brook doesn't have a lot of paddling sections, the Newport section is the only one. There are campgrounds
    quite near the river where you can camp. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending some quality time in nature have a lot
of people coming here. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a large number of paddling rivers. This is a pretty short section so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch.
