Down River Trip – $40.00 per person- All day- No time limit.
This option allows you to paddle the Maumee River and enjoy all the beautiful scenic views that come along with it! This is a great option if you’re looking to try out kayaking for the first time, or just want to be able to go and explore some of the local islands located in the Maumee River. We are currently offering a 5-mile trip launching from Grand Rapids to Bend View/Otsego Road. If the water level is too low for this trip, we will launch from Turkeyfoot and float back down to Grand Rapids in the canal! This is also around a 5-mile trip! We will provide transportation to our drop off location, and once you’re done kayaking you simply just call us and we’ll be on our way to pick you up!
Above the Dam – $30.00 per person
This is another great option if you are looking to try out kayaking for the first time. It once again includes your life jacket, paddle, and transportation. For the float around option you will kayak through the canal to above the dam and have the opportunity to explore a different part of the Maumee River. Once you’re finished with your adventure you’ll kayak back through the canal returning to the shop! Book here!
Paddle Board Rental – $25.00 per person
We are now offering paddle board rentals! This may be a great option for those who are considering purchasing one of their own in the future
