We went white water rafting with 6 adults on sunday May 17 2026. My sister, her husband, and myself and my boyfriend were in 1 boat with 2 guides and my parents and sisters mother in law were in the other. Mikayla and Nikki were extremely helpful and made our ride very fun. They are very knowledgeable and helped us get into sync. Nate took care of our parents in the other boat. Nate was extremely helpful, entertaining, and educated about his craft. We were very amazed and grateful that he took care of our parents so well. This was an unforgettable experience and we will definitely recommend Energ kayaks to others. Nate even took pictures of us that we were very happy with! read more

eNRG Kayaking - White water rafting ! - Rafting/Kayaking Near Me - Oregon City, Oregon

Took a SUP lesson with my husband today. We went into the lesson knowing nothing about SUP but had been wanting to try it for quite some time. We weren't sure if we would even be able to stand up on the thing. Our instructor was so good at explaining how to do everything we both got up on the first try, didn't off the board and felt like we could have stayed out there all day cruising around. Everyone was so friendly in the shop, can't wait to go back there and get on the water again. read more

Poor service, policies, and safety mindset. Booked the city lights night paddle for 3 people including myself. Crazy rain storm moved in and a severe thunderstorm warning was issued for Clackamas County during the time we were supposed to be on the river. When I called five hours before we were supposed to launch to ask what their plan was, they said they'd let us know only 15 minutes before we were supposed to arrive. My friends and I all live a decent drive away and felt that notice was insufficient. And in general, we felt that approach was unsafe since the storm was expected to last right up to our departure time. National Weather Service showed the warning would expire only 20 minutes before our set departure time. The woman on the phone told me she heard the storm was going to be over four hours before that. When I asked where she heard that, she literally said her phone's weather app and her mom. (I should have asked who her mom was!) *eye roll* Idk, this wasn't like, "it's raining a little and I don't want to paddle" kind of last-minute cancellation. This was a potentially very dangerous situation and this company chose profits over people. They wouldn't even issue me a credit when I explained we felt unsafe paddling under those conditions, and that we wanted to know about the plan in a more reasonable timeframe. It's really a shame because I was excited to go out with them. They lost my business for life. read more

Amazing employees and tour guides. Open top kayaks and SUP were good quality. Will be glad to work with them again.

I organized a group of 4 friends Rented 4 SOT kayaks Great service, boats and an easy launch dock. read more

It does get much better than this. Amazing service, gear, and instruction right on the Willamette River. We rented a sit on top kayak and paddled to Willamette Falls and under the historic Oregon City bridge. So epic! I highly recommend them for anybody visiting or living in Portland. read more

Service was ok... prices are design like a bad scam. Let me explain so you are aware. They rent kayaks for most people to go see the falls, 1 mile away. First hour is $25... so far so good... then I asked: so how long it takes to the falls?, they said 90 minutes... so in my mind I'm thinking ok... I'll spend around $40... but no. Since I asked they have to explain... after the first 60 minutes at $25... every next 5 minutes they will charge you another $25... so if you make it to the falls and that takes you 90 minutes you will spend the max amount which is $80... what a rip-off. read more

Danny was an excellent guide! We did the 8 mile guided tour and had a great time,. It does take time make sure you allot for it. It is a beautiful paddle. We did have prior kayaking experience and is needed as it is a good distance if you have never paddles for a long distance. It is a paddle that you do need to know how to kayak but it is not difficult water to paddle in. It is a river so there are motorized boats that pass by snd create some wake. There is a break about half way through to eat a snack. Make sure you pack a little something. If you love to kayak this is the paddle for you. If you want to see a beautiful part of Oregon this is the paddle for you. If you enjoy being out on the water this is the paddle for you. Our guide Danny was very knowledgeable and was able to give us a lot of information about the area. Gave us some pointers s on how we could improve our paddling. There is a shuttle back to the starting point with the guided tour I highly recommend the guided tour Thanks for a great time read more

This was not only our first time renting from here but our first time kayaking in general. The booking process was very easy and straightforward.

What a friendly, fun and exciting time we had renting from eNRG Kayaking! The guys who helped us with the equipment were knowledgeable and incredibly nice. The kayaks, life vests and paddles were in good condition and we had no issues with any of the equipment. The highlight of the rental was indeed getting on the Willamette River and experiencing an up close view of Willamette Falls. Wow! Every kayaking adventure I take seems to improve upon the previous one, and this trip held true to that notion. I can't recommend this unique kayaking adventure enough! read more

Great crew! Mia made it so fun and easy getting our 4 year old and us into a tandem kayak for the first time. What a great time paddling to willamette falls, riding the current back to the marina. We will definitely be back. read more

Always a pleasant experience renting from here! Love the Ladies Night and Family Night offerings.

The guide we had, Jon was awesome as well! He was real patient with our group! I was the only one out of the 6 that went that had kayaked before, so he had to teach, inform and guide everyone! He did great! So if your looking for some fun, easy family time, come check them out! You will not go wrong! read more

We had a great time on this kayak guided tour. Maddie really knows the history and biology of this unique Willamette Falls area, where European-American settlement started at the end of the Oregon Trail. She made it fun! And gave us paddling tips along the way. Today, water was being released over the dam, so we couldn't get that close to the falls due to the strong current. But we saw an osprey and two of their nests. Highly recommended! read more

This place is awesome! The people are awesome; the views amazing and the prices are really great. I highly recommend that you go out there for a morning or afternoon adventure! read more

After recently moving to the area my family was looking for some outdoor activities we could enjoy together. I stumbled upon eNRG kayaking while looking into potential river activities in the West Linn area. With absolutely NO experience in Kayaking I placed an exploratory phone call into eNRG and am so glad I did! Their staff took the time to talk over my options and answered all of my questions. My family has gone on two outings and we're hooked! Dave and Archie were both very patient with us kayaking 'newbies'. It's been a great experience so far and we're already planning what's next! read more

Great time!!! We had an absolute BLAST on this outing! The wife and I took out our oldest daughter and her boyfriend for the afternoon. I will start off by saying the trip time was just perfect. We spent a little over an hour and a half on the water. We built up quite the appetite kayaking! Don't forget your sun block!!! Our tour guides were great to work with! They were fun, easy going, professional and for a bonus they had tons of fun facts that they shared with us throughout the tour. Who knew Edison and Tesla worked together in Oregon?!!! The kayaks are great and in like new condition. The guides gave a very good explanation right out the gates on how to use the paddles, etc making sure everyone felt comfortable before hitting the water. This is an AWESOME way to spend some family time together doing something more than just walking the mall. Want to build some great memories and experiences to look back on with your kids or just your better half? Look no further! Sign up and get yourselves out on the water today and see for yourself how much fun this little adventure truly is! read more

Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and made sure all were enjoying themselves. He kept a nice pace and filled us in on the history of the area. Highly recommend this experience! read more

Connor and Ryan are amazing! My friend and I just moved here from Southern California and purchased a deal on Groupon to try your 90 minute kayaking tour. The preparation process was so simple and everyone was very welcoming. Connor and Ryan were so knowledgeable and passionate! It was so fun listening to them tel us about the the water life, the scenery, and the history behind the area. You can tell that they love what they do, and made it look effortless! We felt so comfortable and taken care of the entire tour! We really appreciated the length of the river tour, we in no way felt rushed nor did we feel that we stopped at any place too long. Also they were both sure to mention the monthly and weekly events and promotions that you offer, as well as information on rentals. 5 stars!! Wish I could give you ten! See you all very soon read more

We had another great kayak trip. kurt, Alex and McKenzie and another young woman that helped when we returned provided the usual superior service that we've gotten in the past at enrgfrom other staff members It is so easy to kayak there anyone can enjoy it no wonder they've been in business for 20 years read more

This was our third time out on the Willamette with the crew. The first and second times were, respectively, training and Willamette Falls tour a few years back. When our family was in town more recently, we did the Willamette Falls tour again. I can't recommend them enough as all three experiences were stress free, fun, relaxing, and excellent experiences. Great job! read more

I went to one of the Live Music on the Water events last summer and it was exactly what I needed after being stuck inside through the pandemic. It was a truly soul-filling experience. When I saw that they were doing another event the day after my birthday this year, I jumped on it and told all of my friends that this is what I wanted to do. ENRG Kayaking did not disappoint! Again, it was absolutely amazing and every single one of the 13 people in my group made sure to tell me how incredible it was. I felt stupid for waiting this long to do another Live Music on the Water event and I will definitely be doing it again soon! read more

We found eNRG Kayaking using a Google search, it was our first time to the area and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We were not able to keep our initial reservation, but the group worked to allow us to rent floaties and enjoy our day. They were very accommodating and willing to help us, thank you very much eNRG. read more

Everyone was very friendly even if you aren't an expert. We rented paddle boards and they patiently explained and demonstrated different ways for me to get on, considering I had knee surgery and couldn't do the traditional ways. The employee helping us, Kevin, was kind, friendly and patient. Will definitely go again and recommend this place to friends read more

Very friendly staff. I rented a paddle board for $25 an hour, they provided a life jacket and made the whole process easy. Took the board to the falls nearby, about an hour paddle there and back. Thank you! read more

We had an amazing time tubing on the clackamas River today. So beautiful and fun!!!! The rapids were easy to manage.... But fast enough to delight. We had a blast. ( ps. Are you a bird nerd? There are tons of water foul for the watching) Lee and McKayla were so personable and friendly, answering all our questions and putting my water shy 18 year old at ease. Thank you both so much for a memorable day!!! read more

Nice place to kayak or paddle board once. equipment rentals are good not great. can go close to the falls.Have to say it's one of the more expensive places to rent paddle boards and kayaks, Also Have to say one time was enough for me as I like to see new things. You are leaving from a boat dock. Staff was OK not too helpful didn't really say anything about how close you can go to the falls whereabouts to go nothing read more

Great job by eNRG with a very informative guided tour on the history of Oregon City and backstories of the Willamette Falls, the locks, power generation, and industry tied to the River. Thanks Lee - Great Guide!!! read more
