My son and I rented a double kayak at Tyler State Park. The website indicated that there was an on-land lesson with each rental. As first time kayakers, this was a bonus that steered us towards this location, but there was no lesson. We were assisted into the boat and pushed into the water. At one point, we came across a location where a bunch of boys were jumping into the creek from cliff, then swimming to the other side where there appeared to be a rope swing. Since we were having a lot of difficulty keeping the boat straight and with turning, trying to get past these boys was a bit nerve wracking since they weren't letting us pass but relying on us to maneuver around them-even after yelling out to them to watch out since we weren't any good at steering the boat. Shortly after this, we hit a spot that was so shallow that we got stuck on the rocks and couldn't progress past this point. My son did try to get out to push us past this area but I made him stop due to concerns that he may slip, fall and hit his head due to slippery conditions. We managed to turn around and head back. I had reserved the kayak for 2 hours but we were only out for 1 hour. The location itself was serene and we did see a turtle sunning itself read more

Went yesterday, July 30 to Falls Park to Paddle Board with Driftwood Water Adventures. It was my first time at Falls Park but my fifth time paddle boarding ever. The small lake is peaceful. The water was a bit choppy but no issues with paddling in or out. The water was so warm and clear....unexpected considering the downpours we had just a day earlier. This is a great little excursion to a local outfitter for an hour of paddle boarding. Might be a bit repetitive for two hours or longer. Basic equipment. I can't rate the SUP instructions given, as I did not part take as I was not a beginner. I would return. I have been several times to this outfitter at the Tyler State Park location as well. That location is nice as well but there were no bug/mosquito issues at Falls Park. Falls is also great for parents taking children, as you can keep an eye on the kiddos. As another reviewer stated, only got four stars because you cannot call to get specific information. read more

Every time that I venture out to paddle board, Driftwood is my go to. This summer, I invited a very good friend and then my sister. My sister had difficulty paddle boarding (she couldn't stand up and even while seated, she couldn't get the hang of the paddle). One of the staff members noticed that she seemed displeased. With that, he jumped into action and got on a board to work with her one on one. He spent time with her in the shallow water and got her to stand up and paddle. She was thrilled. He made all of the difference for her because she later told me that she wasn't inclined to try this again. Now, she is looking forward to the next paddle boarding experience. Thank you to Driftwood and your staff. read more

We had a great time kayaking at Tyler Park. The kayaks we booked ahead of time were ready for us on time. The staff was very nice and helpful. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 was that the kayaks were not in the best shape. We rented 3 and two of them were taking on water a little bit. One of the paddles we got didn't have the drip stoppers that are supposed to stop the water from running down your paddle onto your body. Also, we probably should have been directed how to adjust the footrests so that our paddle was more comfortable. But we had a great time. Saw belted kingfishers, great blue heron, and a cormorant that popped right up close to us. read more

Staff couldn't have been nicer. Glad to say I did not have the experience Michelle had. Rain necessitated me moving our reservation to the next day and team couldn't have been more accommodating. He quickly returned my email and texted me the morning of to confirm we were on. I've gone SUPing a few times in Falls Park but decided to try Tyler for something different this time. It was a crowded Memorial Day at the park so maybe Falls would have been a bit quieter. But, it sure is beautiful. This time around was for my 17 year old dtr and her friends and they had a blast! Great outdoor fun for a wide age range. read more

Great, easy experience paddle boarding with our group of 6! (mostly beginners, with kids aged 11-15) Friendly staff, efficient reservation/arrival system... fun and relaxed vibe. We reserved our time the day before and were able to just show up, go out, and have fun. An hour was a good intro and just enough for us beginners to get comfortable. We had a quick on-land lesson and then we were free to go out on our own for the full hour. (Bonus or pure luck - nobody got wet that didn't want to!) We'll definitely be back, and will book a longer adventure next time! read more

I've never been paddle boarding before I visited Driftwood. I couldn't have had a better experience! I love water sports but I'm not fond of the bodies of water I've been in prior to this (in the Tri-State). However, Tyler State Park (where we were) was so clean, no bugs attacking or biting. I know it sounds silly but I have sensitive skin so while I love outdoor activities I don't like having to suffer through the experience. Not this time! We fell in and got out and no sticky or slimy water residue. It was perfect! read more

I have been to the location at falls park a few times and I decided to try the driftwood adventures at Tyler this past weekend. I booked online and paid and signed the waiver online when I made my reservation for 3 people. We got there and they were all ready for us. Kenny showed us a few tips and how to paddleboarding and helped us get the boards in the water. The employees are always nice and friendly. Paddleboarding is so much fun you should try it if you haven't. It's easier than it looks! read more

Driftwood Water Adventures is a great company! Every year we kayak at Tyler State Park and standup paddleboard at Falls Park. Price is reasonable, equipment is good quality, the people who work there are extremely nice and we've never had any issues. If you are new to either sport, they will give you a quick lesson. For anyone thinking about trying either one out, definitely give it a try with Driftwood! In addition, both parks have a lot of offer. read more

My family and I had a great experience at the Tyler State Park location. We completed the booking and waivers online, so checking in was very convenient. We arrived a few minutes before our reservation and did not have to wait at all. The location is convenient because there is a bathroom right there, which is helpful with young children. We were helped in and out of the canoe, and all of our questions were answered. We will definitely come back! read more

First time doing stand up paddle boarding with my daughter, We had a great time every thing went perfectly . Water was clear lots of turtles and fish to see . Staff and equipment were perfect. Very nice and friendly staff . We Will return for another adventure. Next time I will also rent a kayak so my husband can float along with us! Thank you for an excellent first time paddle boarding experience!! read more

This is the second time we have rented kayaks here, and the second time we have had an exceptionally good experience. Staff are friendly, prompt, very professional and courteous. The equipment is in very good condition, and I would say for my recent experience this is a great place to learn the ropes as a beginner. Would definitely recommend to others, very family-friendly as well. read more

SUP yoga was so much fun. The staff was super helpful and friendly. I will for sure be back for more yoga and to rent some paddle boards or a kayak for the day. I highly recommend checking it out. Really great if you think you are pretty good at yoga you will really be challenged. Balancing on the water is a whole other story. Be prepared to fall in because you totally will. read more

Paddleboarding with Driftwood Water Adventures is a blast and the staff are attentive and nice. We love the peacefulness of the creek at Tyler State Park but I wouldn't recommend your first paddleboarding experience to be on this shallow at places creek. Go rent from them at the lake in Levittown for your first time since it's got deep waters and is safer for beginners. read more

Our experience at Driftwood Water Adventures was amazing! First, I want to mention that AJ, Colin, and Drew were extremely personable and professional. Kayaking itself was very fun. The river we kayaked on was beautiful with trees around us and friendly people enjoying the kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards. This was such a great experience. We will definitely be back! read more

These guys are great! We had a reservation for a group of middle schoolers to celebrate their last day of school. They made sure all of the kids were fitted properly with life vests, taught them how to use the boards and went out with them to ensure they were safe. They even made the most hesitant child feel comfortable and confident. And all with amazing patience!! read more

It was easy and a pleasure to book with and experience the Neshaminy Creek with Driftwood. We booked the one-hour kayak rental at Tyler State Park. We picked the first reservation possible (10am) and it was a breeze to check in with the employees once we arrived at the boat house and get in the kayaks quickly. Would absolutely come back and reserve again. read more

I loved paddleboarding! We had an amazing time here. I booked online and everything was ready and organized when we got there. They gave us a lesson and we were on our way! The staff were very friendly and nice and even tooke our pictures and sent them to us when we were done since we didn't have our phones in the water! Will definitely be back again! read more

We really enjoyed our time Kayaking! Online reservation was easy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I really liked that sanitized life vests between users. If you're going to Tyler State park my only advice would be to arrive at least 30 minutes early. Not a lot of parking, you will have to drive around until a spot opens or park far away. read more
