They gave great information upon booking the reservation on the phone. Parking was very easy but depending what time you go I'd go sooner for parking! The women who checked us in was very sweet. She explained everything to us. She told us where to go and how to stay safe. The man who got us on the boards was equally as nice. He gave us a quick course on how to use the boards. The boards were much easy than I thought. I felt secure and got the hang of it pretty quickly. We paddled to an amazing area with a waterfall and past some beautiful houses and shoreline. I loved that you could kneel , lay , stand and just float in the water. It was definitely a fun day and I can't wait to do it again.

There is a good selection of boats in different styles and sizes and they are all in good condition. The launch area is gently sloped and provides easy access to the water. We've rented lots of kayaks in lots of places and this experience was by far the best. The location is also really nice for kayaking. So much to see and do, whether you head upriver toward the Seaport or downriver into the harbor. Off season, as today was, is perfect for paddling. Beautiful sunny weather, almost no wind, warm water and relatively little boat traffic. Highly recommended and we plan to rent again here soon.

This summer we had more than one family reunion with multiple adults and children of ages ranging from 3 years to 19 years old. The highlight of each event was providing them with the opportunity to participate in Eric's Camp and they're still talking about the awesome experience. Simply witnessing Eric's red kayaks out on the water is such a joyful experience but his and his staff member's skills make this an adventure not to be missed! They are very knowledgable and organized and afford their guests exposure to marine wildlife and the natural world that can't be missed! Eric has a truly unique personality and a gift for engaging people of all ages in the special beauty of the waterways to which we have access.

I purchased a paddleboard at The Kayak Centre 4 years ago. My experience then (and a few other…read moretimes since then for smaller purchases), was so great that even though I've moved to Cape Cod (1.5 hour drive away), when I was in the market for a kayak, I came back to The Kayak Centre. I called ahead and got excellent information and recommendations, and as I requested, they had the boats I wanted to try available when I came to check them out a couple of days later. I checked the boats out in the store and then did the in-water demo to try one of them out. You do have to pay for this, but I guess it makes sense as a bit of insurance in case you scratch or damage the boat and then don't end up buying it. And if you do buy the boat, they apply it to your total, so if you're serious about making a purchase, it's low-risk. I then looked at several accessories (new paddle, PFD, paddle float, skirt, roof rack, etc) and got a lot of great advice and information. They installed the roof rack I purchased and taught me tips on how to load and unload the boat on my own. Before this trip, I did shop around for a kayak and the attention and service I received at The Kayak Centre - from owner to seasoned employee to new employee to the waterfront staff to the installation guy, the service was amazing. They don't work on commission and are actual paddlers themselves, so you get real information and they customize the tips based on you personally. There were a few accessories that I was unsure about that they actually talked me out of buying. I could not be happier with my purchase and the service I received! I went into the store on a Friday afternoon in June and there was a steady flow of other customers, but I never felt like the staff was too busy or were rushing me. If you have as many questions as I did, I'd recommend avoiding the weekends, especially in the summer, because I'd bet they are really busy!
