Kayaks, SUP’s, Canoes Oh My!

We offer kayak, SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboards), and canoe rentals. These Rentals are offered everyday of the week.

YOU MUST RESERVE AHEAD OF ARRIVAL AND CHOOSE AN AVAILABLE RENTAL TIME. PLEASE, NO WALK-INS! (we plan our staffing around our reservations and may not have staff on hand to accommodate you should you arrive without a reservation.

You do not need to use the entire 3 hour or full day block that you reserve, but you MUST arrive and return within the specified timeframe (so others can use the vessels before or after you!).

Rentals include life jackets and paddles for your respective rental. Coast Guard approved life vests must be worn at all times, no exceptions. You may bring your own life vest, but it must meet Coast Guard and DNR requirements.

We are a “paddle out, paddle back” location – NOT a livery. You will start at our location and paddle right back to us when you are finished. You may park a vehicle of your own “downriver” at one of the Metroparks, and drive yourselves and your rented boats back to us, if you wish. You MUST reserve a FULL DAY rental if paddling over the dam and down to a park – you cannot complete those trips in 3 hours!

All kayak, Sup, and canoe renters must fill out a waiver please click “Paddle Rental Waiver” below to take you to the waiver.

*Cancellation Policy* Non-Refundable no matter what, zero exceptions. You may reschedule at your own discretion for any reason, but you have to let us know a MINIMUM of 48 hours prior to your rental. LOOK AT THE WEATHER BEFORE BOOKING!

**You may launch your own kayak(s), SUP(s), and canoe(s), tubes for $10 per vessel. No trailers. *CASH ONLY for Launching. **Launching may be limited on weekends and holidays due to limited parking.

We are located between Portage and Baseline Lake on the Huron River Chain of Lakes. You may take the rentals anywhere you would like within this chain. You may also transport your rentals elsewhere if you have the means to do so. (Truck, tie-downs, etc.) You must bring back the rentals to our site, we will not pick them or you up. *If you are planning a “river” paddle downriver please be aware that you must portage over the dam and you MUST RESERVE a FULL DAY RENTAL! Approximate time to Hudson Mills – 3.5 hours, to Dexter-Huron Metropark – 4.5 hours, to Delhi Metropark – 6+ hours. This does not include your drive time back and forth from your end-point. Plan accordingly!

Paddles and lifejackets are provided to you with each rental. We also provide a map for each rental that will help you navigate The Chain.
