Kayak and Canoe Rentals
As the Russian River meanders through the wine country it offers itself as an ideal chance for kayakers of all levels. We offer many exciting paddling opportunities from guided trips, multi-day trips, and self guided trips, or even pick up kayaks at our store and take them to a location of your choice.
Self Guided Trips
Take a wonderful adventure down the Russian River on one of our self guided tours. Let us supply the boats, life vests, paddles, and transportation and just have a magnificent time paddling down the river. These are down stream trips on the river where boaters are transported from start and end locations. These trips are perfect for any kayaker of any level and are priced at a reasonable range for any budget. All kayak trips start out with basic boating instructions and the dos and don’ts of running the river.
Reservations are greatly appreciated but walk-ins are welcome.
Multi-day trips
Looking for a two day trip? Look no further! We have a fantastic two day one night trip. Great for the group that wants to spend more time on the water, and experience the beauty of the Jenner estuary. The overnight stay is at Casini Ranch Campground, which is in the small town of Duncans Mills. This is a wonderful trip for anyone who wants to go through a multi-day and have the comforts of home. Casini Ranch is equipped with hot showers, restrooms, laundromat, and a general store. Downtown Duncans Mills has great restaurants for evening dining for those that don’t want a camp dinner.
