Family-owned canoe, kayak, and inflatable SUP rentals delivered from Hamilton to Ontario provincial parks and conservation areas
The brief.

The canoe fleet splits across three weight classes — Kevlar (51-55 lbs, lakes only), River (60-64 lbs, rivers and lakes), and Ultralight (42-46 lbs, lakes only). Every rental ships with two paddles, two life jackets, throw rope, bailing bucket, and a car tie-down kit, with a $250 fully refundable damage deposit at pickup. Single-day canoe rentals start at $50 per canoe; multi-day and group pricing is custom, with kayaks and SUPs quoted by inquiry. Operating hours are 7am to 7pm with a $15 after-hours fee.
