Tickets are available to rent one of our kayaks or bring your own!

*NOTE: For those who would like to bring their own boats, traditional or PVC kayaks perform best in the waters of Laurel Hill. It is recommended that foldable kayaks be models that are specified as suitable for choppy water. Not every foldable kayak is appropriate or sturdy enough for live current/choppy water paddling. Inflatable kayaks are generally not recommended as they could risk puncture in the tall grasses and may be hindered if the wind gusts. If unsure, we recommend you rent one of ours.

Registration: $35 per paddler / $20 per paddler with own boat
