CONVENIENT LOCATION

We're the only kayak and canoe outfitter located in Saltsburg. Our free riverside parking means that when your trip is done, you're free to go. There's no waiting around for a shuttle back to your car. 


THE BEST BOATS

It's hard to beat a day spent on the river, but floating downstream in an uncomfortable boat can make things tedious. This is why we stock only the best boats. Our 10-foot kayaks are comfortable and stable - perfect for skilled paddlers and first-timers. Our 12-foot kayaks are the right size for larger paddlers, and our tandems make a perfect alternative to a canoe. If you prefer a traditional canoeing experience, our 16-foot canoes are a great option for 2 or 3 people to float together. 


INCREDIBLE SERVICE

It's our goal to make sure that you have a great trip. We consider it a privilege to serve our customers, and we will go out of our way to make your day on the river the absolute best.
