Canoeing is a Great way to spend a spring, summer or fall day.  Whether a single person kayak outing or a 20 person family outing on the river there is fun to be had by all!! 

Canoeing the Kankakee River is fun and simple, no previous experience needed, it is a great way to get outdoors and enjoy the river from a perspective you cannot get anywhere else!  You can launch your own kayak or canoe into the river at a launch site or you can rent one (or more) from Reed's, a full service rental which will even drop you off and pick you up when you are done!
