For most items, reservations are accepted one week before the first day of the rental period. Reservations are accepted via phone or in person. 

Exceptions: All boats may be reserved 90 days before the first day of the rental period. Boat season generally runs April through October (weather permitting). 

If equipment is damaged upon return, you will be responsible for repair or replacement.

If you’re not able to get your equipment back to us on time, please call ahead and pay for an additional day. If you fail to return your equipment on time, you will be charged an additional day plus a late fee.

We have a set number of oar frames and dry boxes for our rafts. So we don’t rent out oar frame equipment separately.
