@matt skroch: We had a great experience. Friendly staff, wonderful location, and equipment that fit the bill perfectly.
@Andy Maggi: Very friendly and very helpful. I had a group that was looking to spend some time on the water as part of an office outing. The team here went above and beyond to get us set up and on our way.
@Jacob Rose: What a fun birthday idea! Invited friends to come paddle for a few hours and had great time. The sloughs around Warren are very cool as well with all the ash trees. I’ll make this a habit for all my birthdays now!
@Helen Wall: Great service and knowledgeable staff. We had a lovely afternoon kayaking around the waterways. Check the tides before you go.
