Grab your belongings and walk down the road, around the yellow gate and follow signs for North Country Kayak until you arrive at our check-in location. The walk from the parking area to our launch site takes two minutes. Our staff will meet you here and show you to your kayaks.
Will I get wet?
The short answer is, yes! Your boat will be cozy and dry while kayaking. However, we hope that you will take a swim or at least dip your toes in the water.
Do I need to bring my own kayak gear?
We provide the kayak, paddle, life jacket, and dry bag for you. However, if you have paddling gear of your own that you would like to use, that is A-okay with us! You can bring extra layers and anything else to be comfortable on the water.
