Hudson River Expeditions

Very nice people very inexpensive I went by myself and I had a relaxing time on the river.

It was so nice and the guys that work there were outstanding. We didn’t last the two hours but they were so kind to give us a credit back for our hour. The kayaks are in great shape and comfortable and the scenery second to none. Thanks for a great day. Will be doing it again with more family members

You ever find yourself up a river WITH a paddle? Shout out to the folks over at this kayak rental and tour joint. We kicked of LDW with a brisk ride down the Hudson before we explored for good eats. Highly recommended for day adventuring. Happy kayaking!

Beautiful paddling location at Cold Spring in the cove and the marsh. Feels great getting out on the water.
Good quality, comfortable kayaks. Clear instructions about marsh access and safety. Slight delay in getting on the water because there were so many customers at the launch site but it was fine. Next time we will arrive more than ten minutes early.

Really enjoyed our time tandem-kayaking and stand up paddleboarding (first time on SUP). We arrived early for our booking and we were able to go out onto the water immediately after signing the waiver and getting life vests. We were given an explanation of our boundaries on the river and basically set off to enjoy the water! Appreciated that the shop has a locked room for belongings, a bathroom, and some supplies you might need for sale (waterproof bags, bug spray, sports drinks, hats, etc). I'd definitely come back!

One thing to note is that they only briefly ask "have you paddled before?" (I answered yes to kayak, no to SUP). Only a few tips were given for SUP, like where to stand on the board and how to hold the paddle. So if you're a complete newbie I'd recommend going for a class or something (think they offer some?) before just coming to rent. We consulted YouTube videos beforehand so felt pretty confident to just go for it ourselves.
