Canoe & Kayak Rentals

Row, row, row your boat

We are the southeastern most canoe and kayak livery on the Little Miami. We'll admit we're biased, but we think it's the prettiest part of Ohio's most beautiful river.

We offer three trips:

Terrell's Short Trip

Lincoln's Mid Trip

 

Fletcher's Long Trip
Perfect for families with young children, beginners, or those wanting to enjoy a quick outing.
Most popular. Provides ample time to soak up the Little Miami’s breathtaking scenery.
For those seeking the full canoe/kayak experience. This “mini-vacation” offers plenty of time for both fun and relaxation.
*Duration: 45 min-75 min
*Duration: 1.5-3 hrs
*Duration: 3-5 hrs.

*The time frames given as the “Duration” are fairly accurate estimates. The time it takes for you to return depends on two things: 1) how often you use your motor (paddle) and, 2) your desire to get back to the daily grind. There is no designated time limit on any trip. All we ask is that you be back by dinner (6 p.m. Monday thru Friday and 7 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays, and Holidays).

Rentals include two paddles per canoe, life preservers, parking, and a safety briefing. Please, no persons under 30lbs or under the age of 3 yrs will be permitted.

Rider Reminders

  • Bring trash bags – the Little Miami has been a State Scenic River for almost 40 years. We'd like to keep it that way.
  • Wear old clothes and shoes – because the river water is wet (who knew?)
  • Bring straps for your coolers – because heavy coolers can sink (who knew?)
  • Wear sunscreen – because the sun can cause sunburn (who knew?)
  • Don't take your car keys or your wallet – unless you plan on paddling home.
  • Lifejackets are for safety, not for connecting canoes – please wear one at all times.
  • No styrofoam coolers, no glass bottles, no alcohol – all three can have lasting ill effects on the river's beauty.
  • Please be courteous to other riders and respect private property.
