we are closed for the season
Three locations:
Grand Rapids Storefront:
The Kayak Concessions at Farnsworth Metro-Park in Waterville and the Kayak Concessions at Middlegrounds (in downtown Toledo). We're also offering shuttle rides back to Middlegrounds from Swan Creek (at 215 city park).
A credit or debit card is required for rental.
We rent "sit-on-top" kayaks.
"Sit-on-tops" are the safest boats we can put you on. They won't fill up with water even if you get tipped over. This will be a very relaxing stress free day for you. We supply everything you need; a life jacket, a paddle and a shuttle ride back to the store.
We put you in the water behind the Marathon station in Grand Rapids and explain what to do and where to go. You can go anywhere you want, but if you stay LEFT you wont miss any of our "pickup" points. We'll explain when you're signing up and putting you in the water.
"Go have fun and call us when you're done"
We also sell inexpensive dry bags for your phone so it doesn't get ruined. These bags are great, you can still use your phone through them (talk, text even take pictures).
There is never usually more than a 20 min wait for "pickup"...
If you forget the sunscreen and water shoes don't worry because they are available for purchase.

The above rates are for down river kayak trips.
"Kayak to Go"
Rent a kayak all day for $25, tandem kayak for $50, or rent a kayak for the 2 day weekend for $50 or $75 for the week!!! "Kayak to go" means that you do your own transporting and would have our boats back by the time we close.
Down river rental rates are per person.
We prefer that you go with a friend. We'd rather have you practice the "Buddy System". Reservations are not taken, it's a first come first serve basis. We have lots of kayaks and can handle over 150 people in the water at one time. A "heads up" call is preferred for large groups of 10 or more.
Groups of 10 or more@ adult price-$5 off per person...kids are already discounted.
Feel free to call or e-mail with any questions you may have,
419-832-0989 or riverlures@aol.com
Included in your rental fee: Kayak, PFD, paddles and shuttle.
Children aged 12 and under are required to wear a PFD.
