Upper Rice Creek offers a relaxing, wildlife-filled kayaking adventure that any skill level can navigate. We deliver kayaks to Rice Creek every Sunday for our Sunday Family Special!

We deliver and pick up the kayaks for you. You only need to manage your personal transportation to the launch point and back.
