About Vermont Canoe & Kayak
Vermont Canoe & Kayak is a paddlesport outfitter based on Route 15 in Jeffersonville, just twenty minutes from Stowe. They specialise in canoe, kayak, and stand-up paddleboard rentals for the Lamoille River and surrounding lakes and reservoirs, offering both solo watercraft and tandem boats for couples and families. The shop also runs guided tours and provides shuttle services so paddlers can enjoy one-way downstream runs without the logistics headache.
Rental options include solo and tandem kayaks, open canoes, stand-up paddleboards, and inner tubes, with full-day and multi-day rates available. Guided tours range from mellow flatwater paddles perfect for beginners to longer river trips that take in covered bridges, swimming holes, and quiet stretches of the Lamoille. Group outings for corporate retreats, birthday parties, and summer camps are a popular option, and the staff can customise routes and durations to suit any skill level or time constraint.
What sets Vermont Canoe & Kayak apart is their deep knowledge of the Lamoille River corridor and their focus on making paddling accessible to everyone. The shop is conveniently located behind The Family Table and The Cupboard Deli, so visitors can grab lunch before or after a paddle. Their partnership with Smugglers' Notch Resort and proximity to Stowe makes them a natural choice for vacationers looking to add a day on the water to a ski-town trip.
