Rental Packages and Equipment

Canoes are now rented by the “rack” – that is 6 canoes with trailer and equipment – rather than individually.

Pricing and Reservations

Rental term is per weekend. There is a flat fee of $100 per “rack”. Additional paddles and PFDs are available for a small fee. Reserve your canoes under the listings for Aquapaug for the weekend you want.
