Scioto Canoe Livery

WOW We drove an hour to bring our kayaks to this place and wanted to have a good day on the water. When we arrived there we asked for them to pick us up at the end of the trip BUT the old man we talked to said they were going to be too busy to do it. They advertise that they will haul your canoe or kayak for you for $10.00 each but they LIE. He said he couldn't do it for that and said he would do it for $25.00. What kind of crooks are these people? DO NOT GO HERE!!!!\r more

We had such a nice, relaxing ride down the Scioto. The owners were kind and the equipment was in good condition. There were plenty of places to pull over and stretch your legs. We saw many fish, turtles, and even some otters. more

If you want to see hundreds of old tires, trash, including cans, plastic bottles, plastic bags, polluted water, broken glass and floating debris, then this is the place for you! Don't forget your hip waders so when you step in the water, your legs don't turn red and itchy from the pollution. You will also love it if you enjoy the smell of sewage at 89 degrees on a hot August day. I would be embarrassed to take anyone down this 4 mile stretch when there are a number of other local canoe liveries that offer a beautiful scenic and clean ride all with in a hour or two drive from Columbus. All of this for just $30. Enjoy your trip and take plenty of pictures to send to the ODNR or your local Congress person. Very appalling and would not recommend it to anyone! The best part was getting off the river, where are our tax dollars going Anyway. Cons: Thumbs Down! more
