Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in New York tend to be more challenging than the national average, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that many of
the sections here are not safe for beginners. This is the only paddling stretch along Otter Creek. You can enjoy this section more if you take your time, so why not pack your sleeping bag too. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. There aren’t any hotels right
nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. Getting your paddling muscles activated and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this is an area with plenty of rivers for that.
