Pick Up A Paddle + Find Some Peace

Pop your paddleboard on the roof rack, or put dibs on kayaks as soon as you pull into town. Each dip of the paddle brings the promise of cool freshwaters — and places to soak up all the serenity you can.

Maybe you’ll drop in tandem kayaks, and float a river that flows under a mighty wooden bridge. Or wake up early for paddleboard yoga, and keep that postcard-perfect sunrise for yourself. Whichever craft and whatever waters you’re on — carve out your own little place of peace out here.
