Being new to paddle boarding and kayaking, I was nervous for my first time. But I must say, the staff was so helpful! They made me feel comfortable and confident in my abilities. Ithaca New York is the place to paddle, and Paddle Ithaca is the best of the best!

Had the most wonderful experience at Paddle Ithaca! I had a lovely conversation with the manager who was extremely knowledgeable about the boats and the inlets. Great price, great weather, great staff, great equipment. Will be back for sure and would absolutely recommend 🙂

Paddle Ithaca was awesome. I’ve tried all the kayak / paddle board places in town and this one’s the best. Friendly staff, quality gear, great time all around. Beginner or expert - there’s something for everyone here.

Finally a really fun time in Ithaca on the lake, fun kayaking with paddle Ithaca - they were welcoming and gracious and tried their best to be helpful. The lake was calm - perfect weather. The kayak felt brand new and easy to balance. It made a really terrific day. Can’t wait to come back to this …now my favorite activity… Thanks to the engaging staff.

This was my first time going to PaddleIthaca, and the staff was amazing! Very welcoming feel and area. I rented a top kayak, and all of the equipment was in great shape and was in clean/ready condition. Along with the great service and equipment, they also provided me with a life jacket, map of the lake, complimentary water, and a dry bag! Overall a great experience, I will be coming again, and they hold true to kind, caring, and helpful values!
