Fun Kayaking Trip

My husband and I recently went on the kayaking trip and we had a blast. The staff were really informative and fun. We got to see lots of wildlife and even got in a bowl of some coveted clam chowder. We would totally do it again.

Kayaking

Our excursion was a gift. Even though it was overcast, we had a wonderful time exploring in actually the best lighting. Seals were everywhere breaching and poking their heads up and watching us. Staff was thorough in paddling and safety instructions. 2 hrs was sufficient though for the area, 4 hrs would be too long to kayak.

Kayaking Review

I recently went on the Kayaking, which I had purchased for my boyfriend's birthday. It was a great trip and we loved it!! The staff was super friendly. We didn't see as much wildlife because of the time of year, but we saw a salamander or two and some fish and the weather was perfect!! Definitely a fun day trip and something I would love to do again. Thank you!!

Awesome Tour Guide

I purchased this gift for my lady and let me say that I was impressed. The tour is a bit pricey but the guide we had made it worth it not to mention being out on the beautiful lake at 9 in the morning. The guide shares some pretty awesome stories about the lake, so overall its definitely worth it. Also don't forget some water and a little sunscreen!
