Recurring Programs Some of our programs are so popular that we offer them a number of times throughout the season.
Lake Tour by Kayak
Want to watch wildlife or just enjoy a peaceful paddle? Then join us for a leisurely tour of Little Seneca Lake. We could see beaver, herons, maybe even a bald eagle. Basic paddling experience is necessary (this is not a lesson), and you can expect to get a bit damp. We'll supply boats, paddles, and PFD's, though we recommend you bring your own PFD if you have one. And don't forget to bring water, sunscreen, and extra shoes to change into after. Meet in front of the gazebo by the pontoon boat dock and boat rental area.
