Details to review before reserving
You do not need to bring paddles or personal flotation devices—both are included with every rental; bring weather-appropriate clothing, sun protection and any food or cooler you want for your day on the water.
Choose between the standard canoe (stability and cargo capacity for families and sportsmen) or the lightweight canoe (easier to portage, best for two people).
All rentals arrive with paddles and personal flotation devices so you can focus on route and gear stowage rather than basic safety equipment.
Review cancellation policies before reserving.
