The ”’Ellis River”’ is an approximately {{convert|17|mi|adj=on}}-long river in [[Oxford County, Maine|Oxford County]] in western [[Maine]]. It is a [[tributary]] of the [[Androscoggin River]].

The river begins at the outlet of Ellis Pond in the northwest corner of [[Roxbury, Maine]], and flows southwest via a meandering course into [[Andover, Maine|Andover]], passing the village of East Andover before turning more to the southeast near South Andover. The river enters the corporate limits of [[Rumford, Maine|Rumford]] and joins the Androscoggin at the village of Rumford Point.

From South Andover to the river’s mouth, the Ellis River is followed by [[Maine State Route 5]]. [[U.S. Route 2]] crosses the river just above its outlet to the Androscoggin.
