I reserved four kayaks for a 4-Hour time slot yesterday. Booking was easy- the communication was excellent. The operators were knowledgeable and attentive. Parking was easy- overall a beautiful experience. Give this place five stars 💖

Okay, we struggled with canoeing. But these guys were really helpful. They provided directions and instructions that were fairly easy to follow. When we had some difficulty in the first few minutes and decided to switch spots, the one guy brought a kayak out to make sure we made it. We were much more successful after. They do have changing areas and porta potties, but I'd come prepared and leave to find a bathroom anyways. They even have a little spot to sit and picnic. I should have taken more photos, but the water was low during our ride and we could see and reach shells. Which was awesome. Keep in mind to stay off the major islands! It appears to be a bird sanctuary.

Small waterfront kayak rental shop. Great location on Narrow River. Friendly and helpful staff. End of season, keep an eye out for used kayak / paddle board / canoe sales.

Very professional and kind staff! Clean restrooms, great kayaks and paddle boards to rent. We went to the nature preserve this time and will definitely be returning for the beach next time!
