When you rent a kayak from Lake George Kayak Company you’ll be getting more then a boat- we provide basic instruction, life vests, paddles, and guidance on the best places to paddle. To keep things simple we launch our boats into the water on location so you won’t need to worry about carrying a kayak around or paying a parking fee; however the option to car-top your kayak and launch elsewhere is always open.
