We took a five day whitewater kayaking course in June and it was fantastic! The cabana we stayed in was clean and well set up. We took part in the meal program and it was so nice to have delicious and hearty meals ready for us. Our instructor, Chris, was phenomenal at catering to the different experience levels and expectations on the water. He made us feel completely safe while challenging us at the same time. We learned so much and are eager to get out again to practice our new skills.

My wife and I have been twice now. The first time to take an intro to whitewater canoeing, and the second time for a wilderness first aid course. Fantastic people, amazing food, beautiful setting, I can't recommend MKC enough. And in fact I do to everyone I know. We like it so much we are going back again for more canoe training in two weeks. We can't wait!

Great experience while staying here for my Wilderness Advanced First Aid course. The staff was very accomodating and friendly. They also had very clean common areas. I did not have the chance to try the food but it smelled delicious and I hear great comments on it. I am considering returning but this time for some rafting or kayaking :)

Over the long weekend we did the Rafting Advanture, it was so much fun! So they offer you different time slots, you pick and choose the time(s) that work best for you. Honestly if you are looking for something new or different to do, give this place a try. Within 2 hours you will experience, jumping into the river, rafting over some fun waves, swimming and so much more! For our first time rafting we had a blast! Thanks for a great time :)

World class full current whitewater instruction. Just finished the 5 day tandem canoe course. Such a great experience. Very knowledgeable instructors who were able to communicate well, demo superbly and ensure each of the 8 students progressed as much as possible through the week. The water flow agreement with Ontario power generation ensured a challenging but manageable flow on the Middle Madawaska. Although a very early season course, all was ready and professional. Most importantly it was also a lot of fun. The Kitchen staff did an amazing job of keeping all students from the many courses happy. Hats off to Emily, Billy and crew. Jerome ensured all instructors were well briefed and each day worked like clockwork. The office staff ensured all admin was simple and efficient. Thanks Will and Bianca. A special mention to Maddie, Rachel and Robin for their outstanding instruction, sense if humour and diligence with each and every one of us. The fact that we had students from all over North America and Europe speaks volumes. Lots of choice for sleeping arrangements as well. Whether you are a beginner or a pro, this is the place to learn, meet fellow paddlers and have an adventure. Missing MKC already so a return is in the cards.

Everything from the Food to the Staff to the Location is Awesome! I had an amazing time spending a week at MKC doing the 5-Day whitewater course. Ill absolutely be back again! If your thinking about going absolutely get the meals! A MKC course is worth every penny!

Superb experience!! First time WW kayaking and went literally from zero to hero. Thanks to Chris, who's such an amazing instructor, I ran the entire river on my second day without flipping once. The place has a great vibe, very well maintained and eco friendly, delicious food too. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to learn or advance their kayaking/canoeing skills.
