Salmon River Wooden Kayak Company
Q&A

We prefer to have our beginners start in the tandem kayaks as they are a bit wider than our single kayaks and provide a little more stability. However, in some cases, if the beginner is physically fit, they can start with a single kayak.

A maximum of one tour per day.

Reserve a minimum of three guests, or a maximum of 4 for private tours.

Each tour session launches and returns to the river’s edge location at 2015 N Three Rocks Rd (which has no dock). Guests need to be physically able to walk to the river’s edge through a grass field. Each registered guest needs to be fit enough to navigate getting in and out of their kayak without a dock. One or two staff will be onsite and available to physically assist, as needed.

Guests should only enter the property from the N Three Rocks Rd field entrance at the east end of the property/field. There is a gravel parking lot. Look for the SALMON RIVER WOODEN KAYAK COMPANY REGISTERED GUEST PARKING sign.

One car per registered guest. Additional vehicles need to be pre-approved at least one day in advance.
