Joe and his staff at FROG were so accommodating and friendly. He really went above and beyond to make out kayaking trip enjoyable. The creek was so much fun! read more

This review is for June, 2020 just after re-opening from.covid-19. FROG is a mom n' pop shop, family operation. They are highly responsive via text and easy to reserve equipment. I had a great experience and I recommend renting from them. We were a group of three families with kids age 4, 6 and 13, and as most families we asked safety questions & took some time getting things together. The young lady who checked us in was knowledgeable about the trail condition on the Cedar Creek, the water level and other logistics, which helped us decide whether to go with a canoe or tandem kayak on our trip from Girl Scout Camp to Trestle Bridge. They were relaxed about whether we choose a canoe or tandem kayak on our trip since it's the same price. I especially appreciated the picture of the Trestle Bridge as a visual guidance on their checkout background, which help me recognize the pickup point. It was drizzling when we were dropped off at 9am, but the weather held up. During the trip, I noticed that our metal canoes and plastic paddles were maintained in good condition, and the canoes & kayaks were easy to portage over beaver dams and dry storm drain. Due to the windy bend of the narrow river which was littered with down trees and shallow shores, and stopping twice to hike a blueberry trail & swim under the bridge, we were an hour behind the pickup time. The owner Joe started calling us at the scheduled pickup time out of concern for severe weather alert, and he waited with his crew for us and was extremely nice and friendly. Our families and friends had a great time, and we look forward to renting from FROG in other location, as well as the Burlington Float Fest in October. read more

We usually take our new canoers (Trail Life USA; Troop NJ-01:10) to Cedar Creek. Cedar Creek is very challenging for new canoers. Lots of turns. We always rent from Frog Canoe Kayak Rentals. Their staff is super knowledgeable and very professional and helpful. This is from the time of scheduling the trip, to paying and put in and take out. I wouldn't use anybody else!! Of course it is veteran owed!! Semper Fi!! read more

My friend and I canoed here Sept. 1, '23 on a sunny, mild day. The owner and his daughter couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. He dropped us off at White Bridge, and we paddled to the trestle. It was such a beautiful trip full of LOTS of twists and sharp turns. The very narrow water was relatively calm, but did make it a bit of a challenge when navigating around some low and/or fallen branches. We had so many laughs as we tried getting out of a few snags, but it was super fun. ('Much more challenging than all the times we've been on the D&R canal; one of my most favorite places to kayak, walk & bike.) It felt like what I'd imagine parts of the Amazon could look like; cozy, quiet, tree-lined, and shady. Bringing a picnic lunch was really nice. We ate when we pulled off onto the tiny "beach" on the left (there's one on the right, too) just before the trestle (which is totally easy to see/impossible to miss). We're both so happy we found this place and would absolutley recommend it (as long as you're able to work nicely with whomever you're sharing the canoe). I might try a small kayak another time. We loved it! (Also, we're 56 & 63 years old - for reference). Enjoy!! read more

Did the white bridge to the trestle trip. Great time. Excellent staff, will definitely be back. read more

I had a problem initially with arranging Kayaks for several people yesterday but the girls at the desk were wonderful and patient with me and ended up accommodating us through the confusion. All went well we were able to get out on the water for the last drop off at 1:00 It was worth the confusion as everyone had a terrific time! I recommend using Frog I know we will again. I am giving five stars because it seemed the customer service was flawed initially, the girls really covered the mix up and made it happen for our group!! Great job girls!!! read more

We had a large group of us and we were taken care of with great service. We had an awesome experience & would highly recommend!!

Staff was friendly and very accommodating. We rented five kayaks and put in three of our own. A great day out!
