Top-Rated Whitewater Instruction in Ontario
"Friendly, knowledgeable staff made sure we were properly outfitted before setting out on the beautiful Madawaska River for an afternoon of paddling. Campground area nestled under large red pine trees was very clean and all amenities clearly marked. A great experience!"

"Had an excellent 2 day trip with Paddler Coop. Our guide was Trevor. He was knowledgeable, patient and very funny. I would recommend them and would go on a trip with them again."

"Went for 2 days. First day spent locally in rapids out front and 2nd day we did a trip down lower Madawaska. Adrien and Ben are 2 very highly knowledgeable white water instructors. Paddlers Coop is a first class outfitter. All we talked about on drive home was when we can arrange to go back. Can't wait."

"We have been going here for years, 6 I think. It's a great place, especially their kids programs. They won't just teach your kids to paddle the will give them a love for the water and nature in general that will last for years."
