What To Expect

Explore part of the Harris Chain of Lakes and the scenic Dora Canal on your own by a tandem kayak rental. Upon check-in, we will go over a map of the area and make suggestions on the best paddle route to take. Before going on the water, we will give instruction to anyone that needs it and send you on your way.

Our kayaks are in excellent condition for a great time paddling on the water! We carry 13'5" Perception Tribe Sit on Top tandem kayaks with high back aluminum frame support for seating. We recommend if children are 12 years old or younger to go in tandem kayak with an adult for a more enjoyable paddle experience.

Morning rentals provide a quieter paddle experience in the canal with less motorboat traffic. Most days, the earlier you start, the less traffic you will encounter. Weekends can get heavy motorboat traffic in the canal.
