Boathouse Tips

PLEASE arrive a few minutes ahead of your reservation

  1. All paddling starts at the Jensen Point Boathouse. We need to talk to you ahead of time if you are thinking about taking gear elsewhere.

  2. Reservations Recommended. We suggest making a reservation, especially on weekends, holidays or if you are a big group. We do accept walk ins, based on availability. Please be patient and considerate with our staff and they will get you on the water as soon as possible.

  3. Sign your waivers ahead of time. All parties on your reservation must have a completed waiver before you can receive your gear.

  4. Please use the restroom before checking in for your gear. There is a restroom at the park, on the street side of the boathouse, up on the hill.

  5. Arrive on time and return on time. Your reservation time dictates your paddling window. Plan ahead and arrive on time, ready to paddle.

  6. Look at our what to wear and what to bring lists so that you are prepared with all of the necessities for your reservation. We have water bottles and dry bags for phones and gear available for sale at the boathouse.

  7. If you have questions about our fleet or what would be best to paddle, please give us a call/text or email us and we can help fine tune your experience.
