Rental Information 

Starting from $160 CAD plus tax per canoe for a one-hour rental. Paddles, life jackets and basic instructions are provided.

Please Note
Each canoe can accommodate two to three people. Canoes are available on a first-come, first-served basis (we do not take reservations). Unfortunately, pets are not permitted in the canoes.
