We went on a weekday in August so it was very easy to pull up and get a kayak right away. My mom didn't join us but she enjoyed walking around the park. They were knowledgable about the river systems and lakes which made being on the water even more interesting. We've lived in neighboring Illinois for years but have only just started exploring the waters in Missouri. It was fun and a chance to spend time together in a different way. It also made me appreciate the natural beauty of Missouri. Seeing the turtles enjoying the sunshine was one of my favorite parts. The only thing I would do differently is go early in the morning when it's cooler.

I hope that means the fireplace will remain. Lots of ducks, a heron & a white goose visited on the water while we were there. Came home with my own souvenir as they are selling quite a bit before they close. I saw the sale items on their Facebook page. The staff was VERY helpful, & You can pick up items for sale from 9-4.

I was pleasantly surprised by my burger. Cooked nicely, generous toppings. --Fries were ok, nothing to write home about. --Service was friendly. Recommended.

Chris used to sell Funded SUPs but was 10 months late in paying them. He then used the $1,000 from my Visa to pay Funded. I know this because I contacted them yesterday. Visa is after him and at this point I hope he looses his business along with his credibility. My next email is to the better business bureau and the three new SUP dealers he is purchasing from. On credit is what I expect to find. Aloha Chris. Karma will get ya. Joan

I visited recently with my girlfriend while on vacation in St. Louis, and it was a perfect way to spend an afternoon. The prices are reasonable and their equipment is top of the line. Afterward, they invited me to try their variety of longboard style skateboards and "land paddles" for the boardwalk. They gave us a lesson to start out and gave us plenty of time to hang out on the water.

I…read moreasked the gentleman if they had any, he explained that they were not carrying powerblocks anymore, in favor of the Matrix adjustables. So I stepped over and saw that they looked similar to Nuobell adjustables. I asked what the differences were, and he said, "Nuo? I've never heard of em." Okay... so I took my phone out and said, "I bet google has some details." I asked if they were expandable, "No." I asked if you could drop them, "drop?...I wouldn't." Okay.... I showed him my phone so he could see what I was comparing- his product vs the Nuobell. Maybe then, he'll give me some details? "Yep, never heard of them," and back into what he was doing. I looked and saw they do have a nice warranty. I wanted to ask about it, but realized it wouldn't matter. If I had to come back to him for warrantied items, I'd be better off dealing with an automated phone process from some online retailer. At least then, the lack of customer service would be expected, not offensive. I looked and wouldn't you know it? They sell these at other online retailers. I closed my phone, "thanks so much." He looked up saying, "oh... okay." Shame. I ordered them online from the parking lot. Would have much rather went home with them.
