"Ocean Kayaks"
A fantastic and fun way to get around our 40-acre lake or you can portage over to the river for a day of exploring and fishing. These boats are remarkably stable and easy to use. Because of the advanced hull design first timers can relax and enjoy these boats with ease! Our single Kayaks have built-in rod holders for all you fishermen!
