Kayak & paddleboard rentals · Ely, Minnesota
Kayaks and paddleboards met at your cabin on the Shagawa, Burntside and Moose Lake chains.
A small, owner-run outfit: the phone rings at the landing, not at a call center.
Rentals & rates
Half-day and full-day rates, the same whether you meet us in town or on your own lake. Reserve by phone and we'll hold a boat for you.
1 paddler
The straightforward choice for one paddler working a quiet shoreline or a short morning loop.
2 paddlers
Two paddlers, one boat. Good for couples and for parents riding along with a kid.
1 paddler
Made for flat water. Best on calm mornings and easy paddles close to the dock.
Guided trip
First light, flat water and loons calling across the bay. We lead the route from the landing — call ahead and we'll put your name on a boat.
Boats staged at the water's edge for the week.
Weekly cabin package
Staying at the cabin all week? We bring boats out once and leave them with you for five days, so you can paddle whenever the water goes calm — early mornings, after supper, whenever suits.
Delivery area
No trailer, no roof rack, no strapping boats down in a parking lot. We deliver to cabins and lake homes across the Ely area, including the Shagawa, Burntside and Moose Lake chains, and we're inside the Kawishiwi Ranger District.
Not sure whether your lake is on our route? Call and ask — we'll tell you straight.
Staffed phone
Calls and texts land on the same phone at the landing, and it's with us all season. If we're out on a delivery, leave a message or send a text and we'll get back to you.
