My 17 year old son and I rented a double Kayak to explore the lower portion of the Russian river. We padded out to big island on the lower portion of the river explored the Old dairy on the island, added to the Geo-cache on island. We padded ed down river to the ocean inlet to watch the seals and back up to the upper gravel bar island near the big bend. Great times saw a lot and had good times with my teenage son.

I called them multiple times - absolutely no return call. When we got to California, we were staying right in Jenner. Ran into one of their employees on our first night - she said to call for a reservation for Monday - two days later. Again, no return call. The employee told us that she has not worked there long and is not treated well by the owner. We walk down on Monday morning, use the walkie talkies to call them and they are “on the water with a a school group and won’t be having any rentals today.” Would have been nice for them to have ever returned any of my numerous calls. Stay far away - the owner is not a business person. I’d give her a zero if TripAdvisor would let me.

I'm sure if you met our main team that you would like us and truly enjoy the estuary. So sorry you ran into Christine. Your comment is from about the time we had to let her go. She seemed sweet and eager to work, but there were ongoing issues. She was in charge of the reservation line 5 days a week, and we finally realized were losing reservations like crazy and that we were always cash short when she worked. She disappeared a lot during work hours. I found she lied about her past experience, that had her paid higher than any of us, and she was borrowing money from me and all of my summer crew. Then I brought in my pro-team for our school groups and she tried to talk them into padding their checks by 2 hours each day as she was doing. She also had a conversation with them about how easy it was, at the time, to steal cash from me. She begged them because "She" felt "She" needed the money. Of course she was caught, reported and dismissed. She was significantly harming the business that supports us and that we are proud of. Sounds like she was not a pleasant experience for any of us. Please don't judge us by the opinion of a disgruntled employee, who probably belongs in jail. We aren't judging you for falling for her story. So sorry we had no one to run rentals during our education tours or to answer the phone while we did our main job, but we had to let her go. I, and the rest of my outdoor emergency service and education team, would love for you to join us in truly enjoying and appreciating the Russian River Estuary and Managed Marine Recreation Area.

We had a great time kayaking!! We got to see a ton of different bird species and had a few encounters with seals. We had a lot of fun kayaking around the river area and then pulled up to the beach for a little lunch and chat with the guides at the beach. We really enjoyed our trip!
