Kayaks are our most maneuverable crafts. Glide across the beautiful Elk River with ease. We offer single and tandem (2 person) kayaks which are perfect for those wanting to float alone or with their bestfriend/significant other. This also happens to be our quickest craft, so for those that don’t want to be on the water all day Kayaks are perfect for you.

A River Ranch Favorite for All

Our sit-on-top kayaks have created quite a following over the years. Once some people try them, they quickly become favorites.  The sport of kayaking is quickly gaining in popularity, so we have increased our fleet by 25% to keep up with demand. They will handle kids all the way up to full sized adults.  We feature both single sit-on-top, and tandem sit-on-top Jackson brand kayaks.  Tandem kayaks are a great way to introduce youth or the inexperienced to the paddle sports.

Kayaks are a great way to solve the odd person out issue when the rest of the group has canoes.
