Canoe Rentals

[youngdumbandfulloffish]

The girlfriend recommended us renting a canoe or kayak on Saturday. We've done it on the Delaware and at the Cranford Canoe club. What other places have canoe and kayak rentals?

Somewhere along the D&R canal they have canoe rentals.

You can ride the Delaware Raritan canal or the Millstone river. Very scenic.

Spruce run has kayak rentals but no canoes as far as I know....They also have row boats with or without motors....Or you can always splurge and rent a pontoon boat so you can spread out a bit....They may have a few paddle boats as well....

As previously mentioned the canal has a rental place also....Passed it a bunch of times but never stopped...this one is in griggstown or millstone, not sure where the town border lies....Good luck and have fun

Yes Wawayanda has all kinds of rentals.
Just get there early, because that park gets so crowded, some weekend mornings in the summer they actually stop letting cars in.

SERIOUSLY! I hate it when that happens... they really ought to figure that out... there are two entrances to the park, i don't know why they don't just have the swimmers use one (the west entrance) and the boaters/hikers use the other (east entrance). that way when the beach fills to capacity, the hikers and boaters can still enjoy themselves. kind of like what they do at round valley. all it would take is some traffic barricades to separate the two sides of the parking lot and for them to repave the second driveway to the boat launch. they wouldn't even need double staff... make the west entrance the one where the rangers are in the summer and leave the east side unstaffed except for patrols, like the RVR angler lot.

Shepherd's Lake in Ringwood NJ rents rowboats and canoes. I'd call to make sure their rental office is open before-hand tho.
