BayCreek Paddeling Center, is the best place to do yoga surrendered by nature, I love do it there. 

Business response:

Monica, thanks for your kind words. It's amazing how popular paddleboard Yoga has become. We joke with our instructors, Lynne and Sherry, about changing our name to BayCreek Paddling and Yoga Center. :-) Hope you can come again. Ken

This place is absolutely awesome! This was my first time here and on a kayak. It's really a little slice of heaven. We were visiting our son and his family (our daughter-in-law just happens to be a paddle board yoga instructor extraordinaire at this location.) She showed us the magic of "the secret wilderness." We're definitely coming back!

I came to BayCreek for the first time a couple days ago to buy my first paddle board. Everyone was knowledgeable and patient, and I did not feel pressured at all to buy anything. The crew took their time and let me demo a couple boards, discussing every interest I had and explaining everything I needed to know to pick the right board for me, even though they seemed busy and had a lot going on. I left with my board and everything I needed to transport and use it and I couldn't be happier! They took the time to show me how to ... read more

I was very disappointed with the service. The location was good but they did not disclose their policy on charging an hour's worth each time you leave the dock. Even if there's thunder and they let you "continue your hour." The worker (and manager) was extremely rude, but the owner was nice enough to compensate. You're better off spending your money somewhere else. 

Business response:

Thank you for the opportunity to review our policy and to make sure everyone is aware of it. It's very simple. Enjoy your time with us or there is no charge. We sell good times and if you didn't have a good time, there is no charge.We offered to refund your money on the spot, but you opted to receive complimentary passes for 5 free one hour rentals. The offer to happily refund your money still stands and you are welcome to keep the free passes.

It really is Rochester's secret wilderness. And they're ideally situated to take advantage of the creek and the bay for a wide variety of paddlers and craft from fishing kayaks to canoes to stand up paddle boards and surf skis.
