Hello! Want to give kayaking a try? Looking to spend a few days with friends in a lake or river? Want to spend a few hours in fresh air exercise down the beautiful American River? The Backyard Kayak is a small family owned home business operated through various locations in the Sacramento area. Because our business is operated at our
homes and with kayaks owned by those who have the same hobbies and interests, our customers are able to find ridiculously low kayak rental rate that is unmatched by any of our competitors. An average kayak rental would costs anywhere from $15/hour to $50/hour, but at the Backyard Kayak, for $45 (singles) or $90 (tandems) you can rent the kayak(s) for a whole week! Think of how much you are saving. We have a limited variety of kayaks, sit-on-tops and sit-ins, yet we're sure there is a right one for you! All singles can accommodate up to 250 lbs, and the tandem Manta can carry up to three people, up to 500 lbs. The sit-ins are more suited to fast travel along a lake or moderate river, while the sit-on-tops are more stable in slow-moving currents or bodies of water. Although the Backyard Kayak offers low affordable rates, it may not be the best route for everyone. Our kayaks are not conveniently sitting on the shore of the lakes and rivers. Also, the clients must be able to pick up the kayak from one of our assigned operated locations and be able to load the kayak safely onto their own vehicle themselves. Assistance other than to carry the kayak to the vehicle will not be provided. We want to make sure that our clients have the knowledge to transport the kayak from and to their destination on their own. And lastly, our hours of operations are based on our work schedule. Currently, our 95825 location is available from 8a.m. on weekdays and weekends. We currently rent 6 kayaks: 5 singles, 1 tandem. You may find more information on our website.
