24 Hour Paddlesport Rental - Colorado Springs

24 Hour Kayak, Canoe, & SUP Rental in Colorado Springs

This 24-hour rental gives you a full day with a kayak, canoe, or SUP — plenty of time to head out to a nearby lake and spend as much of the day on the water as you want.

Pick your craft — a single or tandem kayak, a canoe, or a paddleboard — and pick it up whenever works for your schedule. A full day opens up options a little farther out, like Rampart Reservoir in the foothills northwest of town or one of the North Slope reservoirs on Pikes Peak, in addition to closer spots like Prospect Lake or Quail Lake. Your rental day runs a full 24 hours from pickup, so an afternoon start still gives you the whole next morning if you want it.

1. 24-hour rental, starting from your pickup time (for example, a 3pm pickup is due back by 3pm the next day)
