Had a great experience my first time Stand up paddle boarding, instructor was amazing, patient and very helpful, I didn't fall! It was a great workout for me and I will definitely be back to try out Kayaking. From check in to leaving everyone was pleasant and professional. Jeanne

We took the nature tour and it was beautiful. Our guide Morgan was excellent. I have never kayaked before so it took me awhile to get the hang of it but I didn't feel like I was holding up the group - even if I was. I will definitely back! 

Business response:

Thanks Sarah! We'll pass your compliments on to Morgan. We agree, she's fantastic, and we are looking forward to having you come back:)

My family had a great time paddling today. The staff was very friendly and helpful especially with my young kids. The creek area is beautiful. We will definitely be back. We utilized the personal launch area and also rented a canoe. Very easy and efficient check in process. 

Business response:

Thanks Alison! We're glad you and your family enjoyed the beauty as much as we do:) We hope to see you again soon.

Everyone I have ever dealt with at Bay Creek has been friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I purchased my first kayak here in 2007 and my second in 2011. Great people. 

Business response:

We appreciate your kind words and your great review Margaret!

Bought a boat here and found the service to be outstanding from Dave and Morgan. Very friendly, genuine people with a love for water sports and sharing knowledge about it! Great location with wonderful paddling right out back, as well.

Took the Kayak Nature Tour with Morgan on Oct 8. Although the weather was a bit chilly and damp it was a great tour. Morgan was SO knowledgeable about the area and was a wealth of information as well as a great instructor. We saw lots of wildlife, including a Bald Eagle! That was so cool. Everyone was friendly and laid back. After 15 or so years of telling myself I have to check this place out, I finally did and loved it. I definitely plan to go back. 

Business response:

Thanks for the wonderful comments, Amy! Hope to see you back next season!

I had a wonderful experience.. It was my first time in a kayak, took the lesson class .. Our instructor was awesome (Dan). He took away the nerves and before I knew it, I was relaxed and having fun. 

Business response:

We are so glad you enjoyed the class and we hope you come back for the Intermediate!

Dave and the rest of the crew were incredibly helpful. So much so that I now have an NDK Romany Excel sitting on my living room floor waiting for the next trip. Thank you all so much. 

Business response:

Thanks for your business and we hope to see more of you around!
