This kayaking operation gets consistently high marks for knowledgeable, passionate guides who really make the experience. Reviewers specifically call out Brad, Carrie, Andrew, Isaiah, Kyle, and Casey for their expertise about local wildlife, history, and ecology. The tours regularly deliver on wildlife sightings, with seals, bald eagles, porpoises, and other creatures making frequent appearances. People appreciate the beautiful, remote locations on the quieter side of Mount Desert Island, away from the crowds. The vibe here is decidedly low-key and unpretentious. This isn't a polished resort operation with fancy amenities. For rentals, you'll need to transport kayaks yourself on a two-wheeled cart down to the water, which some found more challenging than expected, especially with kids. The equipment is functional rather than luxurious (minimal seat cushioning), though generally well-maintained. If you're looking for a DIY rental experience, come prepared for some extra effort. The guided tours, however, seem more streamlined and well-organized. First-timers consistently report feeling comfortable and well-instructed, with guides adapting to weather conditions and group abilities. The thoughtful touches, like homemade muffins after a tour, capture the authentic, personal approach here.
What a phenomenal experience! My sisters and I did the fall foliage kayaking today and it was so lovely! The creek was calm and serene. We got to see a number of ducks and herons, and of course the leaves were beautiful. We're not super experienced/athletic but had no problem paddling or steering. It wasn't too strenuous but it was a good arm work out. And we had such a great group! There were only 6 of us and all women - such a great energy! Carrie was an excellent guide, Connor was a delight, and even though we didn't meet the owner, Brad, he sent homemade pumpkin muffins and cider for us for after the excursion. Such an authentic way to experience the beauty of the area outside the park.
