We rent kayaks from these guys for a family event every summer — and every year they are the best! We’ve never had a single issue in all the times we’ve rented from them. We were extremely impressed by the measures they have put in place to keep everyone safe (with the COVID-19 outbreak ongoing right now).

This place is awesome! The staff is friendly and considerate, and their sanitation protocols made me feel at ease. The ride itself was absolutely gorgeous and relaxing! ❤️

Ben and his team are the best. They know the Chestatee and make sure you have a safe and great ride every time. This is a fabulous activity for families to teach their kids water safety and burn off energy. You might even see turtles! We’ve been coming up for years, usually do 2-3 trips per summer. River time is a mini vacation.

There are no words to express the gratitude I.have for such a wonderful day of.paddlong on the Etowah-(Dawson Forest.) The crew from Appalachian Outfitters made everything simple and smooth. This was a very special paddle in memory of my dad Joe Kidd who was a long time advocate of clean rivers and environment - he also participated in Paddle Georgia for a number of.years. Thank you and God bless. ❤️ Paddle on...........
