Nice spot but it was slammed on a beautiful day, and I think they could have had a better process for checking in.

I had a great time kayaking in a tandem (double) kayak with my friend who was visiting from out of town. We arrived just after they opened on a summer Sunday morning, and did not have to wait long for a kayak. The service was friendly, and though it wasn't possible to kayak through the arboretum due to bridge maintenance, we went through the nature preserve and had a lot of fun navigating around some fallen branches & logs to the quiet creek beyond. We saw so many adorable baby ducklings, frogs, turtles, and a heron posed for us for ages.

So great they lost my business. The student staff were so nice and helpful and were patient with me clunking into and out of the kayak and getting lost on the dock. Great experience kayaking and will probably buy my own.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Is it possible to launch a personal kayak from here? It's an area I've been interested in kayaking. Just trying to figure out where I can launch from.

Hi Ryan, Members of the UW community may launch a boat from the WAC. They need to check in at the main office and a staff person will direct them to the launch point of the day. There is no public launch at this time. We hope this information is helpful. Please feel free reach out to us for any further inquiries. Thank you! - UW Recreation

Hi, I'm new in town. I'd like to rent a canoe. Are there power driven boats on Lake Washington?

Suzanne Kates | Aug 11, 2022

Motorized boats are on the lakes in the appropriate areas. Canoeing and standup water boarding is popular as well and rental places dot the area around the lakes.
