Hello fellow paddlers,

May has arrived and looks like paddling season has to. I wanted to let you know of our summer storage service for kayaks and canoes we offer here.

We have storage racks for paddlers who may not have accessibility to launch easily from a waterfront. For $100 a month you can store and lock up your own boat come here during operational hours and use the dock to launch. You can walk, bike too or drive in although we have limited parking.

Please contact George or Genny for more information and spots will go quickly they are limited.

Happy paddling Genny!

Hello everyone.

So I have to comment I don’t usually and this is about privacy. Most of you are aware we live on a Private road and which means when you come here for rentals or yoga is fine to use the road.

However things change in the winter when snow falls and the river freezes. The neighbours and ourselves allow the snowmachine club who sell permits to use the road and the private boat launch to access the gas bar here. We often have random people walking down private property and who are not welcome. North grenville provides in many locations, for instance Anniversary party or Curry park that access and walk the river. If someone hurts themselves on my road or property then they sue me.

Please stay off the land unless you have a permits or permission. We have rights to. So to the person who feels the need to use our land then please learn your laws we are not a public access or come and ask us we would said yes.

Saw another great evening paddle with the local group.

All the lights were great to see and the howling was amazing, what a lovely way to enjoy some time with friends and fellow paddlers.

Happy paddling!
