We went on a weekday in August so it was very easy to pull up and get a kayak right away. My mom didn't join us but she enjoyed walking around the park. They were knowledgable about the river systems and lakes which made being on the water even more interesting. We've lived in neighboring Illinois for years but have only just started exploring the waters in Missouri. It was fun and a chance to spend time together in a different way. It also made me appreciate the natural beauty of Missouri. Seeing the turtles enjoying the sunshine was one of my favorite parts. The only thing I would do differently is go early in the morning when it's cooler.

Another great find in St. Louis!!! I love, love, love SUPs! When I saw a Groupon for 45 minutes of…read moreYoga and then 30 minutes of open paddling, I knew I had to give it a go! The Groupon was $34 for two people, which was awesome. With that said, their regular prices aren't bad either. This class is only $25 a person without the Groupon. They also have SUP fitness classes for $25, which look great based on the pictures I saw on Facebook. Finally, they have an intro to paddle boarding (SUP 101) for $40 (1 hour and 45 minutes). You can also rent paddle boards if you've taken a class with them before ($15 for an hour and $25 for 2 hours). I've never done Yoga before, so I didn't have a lot of expectations. We spent the first 10-15 minutes focusing on our breath, and then the rest of the time trying foundational Yoga poses (e.g., downward dog, plank, etc.). I thought it was really relaxing and Christy, who was our instructor, was very friendly, encouraging, and calming. After her instruction, my husband and I freely explored Simpson Lake, which was nice. I thought the lake was a really good size and super still. A few other notes....in addition to Simpson Lake, they also do classes in Chesterfield at River's Edge Park. I can't say much about Chesterfield, but I found the Simpson Lake location relatively easy to find. Your GPS might be off a little (mine was), but the sign for the lake is pretty big and hard to miss on the side of the road. After you turn into the parking lot, it is pretty easy to spot SUP St. Louis and their paddle boards. In terms of apparel, you can either wear workout clothes or a swimsuit. Just be prepared that you might fall in so don't wear anything you don't want to get wet. Also, if you are uncomfortable leaving your phone/keys behind on shore since there aren't any lockers/secure storage options, make sure to bring something waterproof that you can take out on the lake. Be sure to use the restrooms before you paddle out! I made the mistake of paddling out with a full bladder and was very regretful that I did not take advantage of the relatively clean ones right by the lake. Finally, I think this class is good for anyone, although it helps if you have experience either with a paddle board (like my husband and I did) or with yoga. Overall, a pretty reasonable price for a very enjoyable afternoon. I will definitely check it out again!

Chris used to sell Funded SUPs but was 10 months late in paying them. He then used the $1,000 from my Visa to pay Funded. I know this because I contacted them yesterday. Visa is after him and at this point I hope he looses his business along with his credibility. My next email is to the better business bureau and the three new SUP dealers he is purchasing from.

I visited recently with my girlfriend while on vacation in St. Louis, and it was a perfect way to spend an afternoon. The prices are reasonable and their equipment is top of the line.

They gave us a lesson to start out and gave us plenty of time to hang out on the water.
