About

Guests put in and take out at the same location for this trip. Traveling upriver from the Saxapahaw lake paddle access dock, and returning to the same dock at the end of the reserved trip time.

After checking in, guests take a short nature walk from our main office to the Saxapahaw lake paddle access (<¼ mile). Putting in and taking out at the same location, guests explore the flatwater impounded upriver of the large dam, with the scenery of the river but the tranquility of a lake. Guests are free to swim, fish, birdwatch, and picnic in their boats at their own leisure before returning to the dock. Suitable for all skill levels, guests are in control of the amount of time and distance spent on the river.

All paddlers under the age of 18 that will not be accompanied by an adult should have a signed waiver from a parent/guardian before they can go on the trip.

To fit into a life vest, all passengers should be over the age of 2 years and at least 30 lbs.
