Paddle craft, Paddles, PFDs
Meet at Pageant Park for a hassle-free paddle with curbside delivery to the dock across the wooden footbridge from Drake Park. You have 3.5 hours to explore Drake Park, the whitewater area, and Mirror Pond before returning to your put-in.
Parking is very limited near Pageant Park; park downtown and walk about 5 minutes to the small wooden footbridge. Sign waivers before arrival and be on time for delivery and pickup appointments. Some kayaks are dog friendly; paddleboards are not.
Booking runs from delivery time to curbside pickup 3.5 hours later. Late arrival may forfeit your booking and does not extend the reservation. Changes or cancellations are allowed up to 24 hours before the start for a refund minus credit card and booking fees. No refunds within 24 hours.

Danielle has built something special here with her paddleboard and kayak rental operation. She consistently goes above and beyond with detailed local knowledge, pointing customers toward the best lakes and rivers while offering insider tips on currents, hazards, and even optimal arrival times. First-timers especially appreciate her patience during lessons and equipment tutorials. The gear itself gets high marks for quality and maintenance, whether you're renting SUPs, kayaks, or wetsuits. The rental process is refreshingly smooth and flexible. Danielle accommodates last-minute bookings, responds quickly via text, and meets customers efficiently for pickup and drop-off. She provides all necessary equipment including straps and life jackets. One minor note: the Google Maps address leads to the river drop-off location rather than a physical storefront, so calling ahead helps clarify logistics if you're self-transporting. Her genuine enthusiasm for helping people enjoy Bend's waterways shines through in every interaction, and many customers return year after year specifically because of the personalized service.
Fantastic rental experience with Bend Kayak School! We’ve rented stand-up paddle boards from Danielle and her team for the last two years. We do the self-transport option and SUP in the Cascade Lakes area just west of Bend to miss the crowds and Danielle ensured we had what we needed in terms of equipment, lake recommendations, and directions. She also was very detailed in helping us secure the SUPs to my pickup truck with five SUPs. I highly recommend Bend Kayak School and will definitely use them going forward. Easy and immediate communications always.
