Do we have Inflatable Paddleboard Rentals for easy transport to the Cascade Lakes?
Absolutely!
We have outfitter grade inflatable SUPs, and include a vest with whistle, Waterway Access Permit and an electric and manual pump and a gear bag. Come by our office, even last minute, to pickup a paddleboard rental and enjoy the last few weeks of summer in Bend.
Best of all? We have the local tips on the absolute best spots to paddle based on water levels and your experience level.

The best time to be on the water in Bend paddling is evening, IMO...

Tried for an early morning paddle on Elk Lake, but where we went to was too shallow to put on easily. (The main access points are still good.)
It was so beautiful that we just enjoyed the morning fog waking up over the lake.

Even better over the water! We definitely aren't taking this for granted... if you need to get out or are making plans for the weekend. The forecast is green for air quality. We are so thankful!
