Springfield Yacht and Canoe Club: what do users think?
Frank Howard: The commodore has held the position much too long and has become very hateful person.when he used monthly bulletin to bad mouth a former member, I complained to the board. They terminated my membership no reason given.I was a member for 44 years
Frank Perez: We had a great time at the club. Friends have a slip there we went out on the river and had a great day. Then the downpour came in but it was great. We sat down later with other members of the club and had a pot luck community meal. Which made for a great time and great food.
Michael Young: Awesome place right on the river come and join you won't regret it.
Matthew bourque: Great people, great place
Judith Szczygiel: Always a wonderful place

Valley Paddler: what do users think?
Frannie Sikorski: Pretty pond
Margaret M.: What a gem of a place. The owner was lovely and the pond/lake was delightful! And the cost was extremely reasonable!
Manny Almanzar: What an excellent place just to go sit by the lake and relax.
Oliwia Bragiel: Awesome rentals! The pedal boat is much more physically demanding then it looks! But having friends to trade off the task was beautiful!
Christine Fisher: We had a fantastic paddle! Easy rental process, reasonable rates, informative & helpful staff. Can't wait to to take a longer ride next time.
Martha Ortiz: Price $35.00 for 2 hour, great location easy reservation. Not to mention the view on the water breath taking.
Dave: Hassle free enjoyed the Boating outing
Monty Gada: Lovely experience kayaking on Nashawannuck Pond. We spotted the resident Blue Heron sunbathing on the downed trees along the shore, got to hang out with it for a bit and watched it majestically take flight! Lots of different bird species flying around as we made our way slowly up and down the pond. We kayaked for 2 hours which was more than enough time to travel the pond, in fact we ended up taking a second round just to kill more time. It was easy to reserve our tandem kayak as Katie is quick to respond, pleasant and welcoming. One disappointment was that she didn't have any dry bags to lend us so I decided not to bring my phone to prevent any water mishaps! We will definitely go back, great time 👍
Nickolas Morse: Great place to go for peace and quiet and time to think. Also very relaxing.
Faye Glasgow: I enjoyed it
Alec Chrzanowski: People looked like they were having fun
Mark Hiersche: Pristine lake to visit and kayak
Tim Barnes: Way 2 expensive
Danielle C.: Convenient, the boats are already on the pond, so just pay to rent and go! Great time for the family on the pedal boat or indivial kayaks, but they have a tandem too!
Linda Davis: Pedal boats!
Chicks Fix: Took my niece out on a paddle boat. We had a great time. Reasonable prices. Relaxing but still a good work out!
Jill Carter: Fun thing to do with the kiddos. We had a blast.
CINDY: I used to fish with my Pepe all the time 45 years ago. WOW...so much has changed! Nicely up grated and so much more to offer. I am a native to Easthampton. My home town that's fondly remember. People were small town friendly and everyone knew just about everyone.
Melissa Corneliuson-Barnes: We rented a kayak since everyone in my group didn't have one. 20 minutes in the water the kayak starts taking on water. Water was coming through screws. I had to pull it out on the other side of the pond and get someone to bring my truck to pick me up. By the time I got back to the kayak stand, my hour was almost up. I told the girl who was running the place and she just said she would give me a 10% off coupon for my next rental. Really!! Lost almost the entire hour and couldn't paddle with everyone else and she was flippant with me. Really ruined the paddle.
John L: Love it! Don't try to break any speed record, it just keep going at the same pace.
Danny Colon: My first time kayaking and I did good! Definitely this is fun, and a bit of a work out. For a single seat kayak is $15 for 1 hour, if you don't know how to swim like me they provide a life jacket. I managed to see a bird but can't identify it (it had web feet like a geese and was more or less 3' tall). I don't know if the paddle they provided was damaged that as I paddled drops of water would jump in kayak and soak my pants. I had to return to dock and let go of my smart phone and stuff to prevent losing them. There's plenty of space to park too.

Lisa Spencer: Playground: Great play area on the beach includes slides...Picnic area: Many tables and grills... excellent setup
kevin silvia: Was a nice ride went to check out the boat ramp but found the park CLOSED for winter... Will check in later....
Jeremy Ledoux: Great place to fish! Nice water, some people ruin it by littering diapers and empty beer bottles and stuff, but I can't down rate the place because people are slobs. Got my personal best largey here, see picRestrooms: Usually clean porta pottyDog-friendliness: No rules against pets
Crash_the_Stampede: It's nice for fishing or boating but entrance has a lot of pot holes that need to be filled.
Annie F: This pond is trashed, one section is open, it’s pointless might as well close the whole thing, sad for those whose want to enjoy something local and fish
Luis R: If enough of us call 311 and push the city to clean it up, we can get it done. Too bad we have to share our pond with so many pigs.
Sam Das-Mayo: I grew up at this pond ….With my siblings whom is not here anymore so it’s extra special place I go to remember those awesome memories 🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gilberto Otero: Park is in shambles. Another waterfront abandoned by the city of springfield. You will find homeless people sleeping in their cars and tents. Fenced off areas. Stay away.
VIRGEN DIAZ (Sacha): Is good I wish they reopened and clean it.
sharitsia crespo: Me encanta ir a este lugar cada vez que puedo
Mark Fresco: Shallow shore. Bad place to learn to fish. I feel bad for the teenagers who are eager to catch a fish. Good for those who have a boat/kayak.
Annika Glass: It deeply confuses me that there is no trail around the lake.Huge oversight by the city, a real missed opportunity to make nature actually accessible in this urban area.
COCO BAND: Nice
Priscilla Gagnon: Nice but small
William Quiles: Nice place
GEORGE GG: Para ir can la familia
Jacqueline Algarin: I like to go here often for the view. It's relaxing for me. Many people do fishing in this pond and it's great. However, the city could do better in keeping up with it's bumpy road.

Metacomet Tours: what do users think?
Tim Reed: Jack went above and beyond all three times the I used his equipment. He is one of those people that you instantly like. His wealth of experience lends to giving great advice and he would check conditions in advance to make sure the route you are going is the best.
CinCoEnTodo (Cinthia Cotto): Jack is well experienced with the river, including the CT River, the conditions, and access points. Personable, friendly and professional. I went out with my granddaughter and the winds picked up; he picked us up prior to reaching our destination. Everything went well. Rates are reasonable considering it's not hourly which allows you to enjoy the purpose you rented to begin with... i.e. to be on the water and enjoy nature.
Ruby: The guide and owner was very laidback and welcoming. We made great conversation with him while he drove us up to our starting point on the river. The experience was very calm, no rapids, just very slow moving water and a peaceful scenery. Loved the experience!
Brian Lussier: Had an amazing day on Farmington River yesterday with my friend. We had the perfect weather. We saw 4 bald eagles, a blue heron, a turtle, an egret, and a lot of highlighter blue dragonflies.The person who helped me with my rental was so chill and laid back which is the mentality you should have going onto the river. They don’t have a lot of staff it was actually just him that day and he also does drop offs down the river. So go with a laid back mentality, don’t be upset if you have to chill by the river for a bit while waiting for a kayak, take your time and enjoy the beauty.They take cash, Venmo, and cash app for payment and it’s only $35 for the whole day. I’ll be going back often and recommending to all my family and friends.
Kathy Keene: Great experience!!! Great kayaks!!
Priyal Garala: We had an awesome experience with the buddies. He was very accommodating.
Joe Bellini: Awesome day on the water. Staff is amazing and always makes the teip better. Highly recommend!!
Brian Thompson: Cheap kayak rental, nice ride 2 hours, nice guys
James Walker: Great for a lazy day on the river. Very peaceful
Christine Badeau: Met Jack and his brother yesterday When we went to go kayaking. They also rent canoes.Good prices and they will drop you off or pick you up wherever you need. Can’t wait to go back.🛶
Gilberto Otero: Absolutely simple but great. Easy access to kayaks and canoes. Farmington river and Connecticut river. Small humble family buisness with a wonderful attitude and vibe. Their little boy is adorable. Can find them down by the boat ramp and parking. Shuttled up river and you cruise down a few hours depending which route you take. So easy and fun. You definitely cant beat the price. I highly recommend you come check them out on any nice day to get on the water with no hassle.
Randy Galetta: Great relaxing canoe ride down the farmington River. We were lucky to see 2 bald eagles along the shoreline in the trees above us. We will return again to kayak down to the CT River and down to Hartford.
Little Wolf: If u like the river then u like it here the ppl owns the kayaks r friendly n they will help u w ur questions n its a beginner level 4 sure u can swim there n u can take ur time on the river there's no rush
Lucy Lulu: FANTASTIC!!!It was amazing, peaceful and adventurous.Jack was WONDERFUL very helpful and willing to make your day a pleasant experience.
Pratap Varma: Well spent.
Arnab Purkayastha: Very nice experience! Decent kayaking length and multiple options for both beginners as well as experts. There is plenty of things to do for nature lovers and if you are lucky you can catch a glimpse of the blue herons as well! The service is owned by a small family who are all fantastic fun people to work with. Starting from booking the reservations to giving us directions to arranging everything, all went smooth. Travis is a pretty chill guy who is passionate about his job and very helpful and responsible. Just a couple of things to keep in mind- the place has a restroom which closes pretty soon and there are no changing rooms so it’s better to come prepared.
kyara linares: Had a great experience!! It was my first time ever being on a kayak and Jack was very friendly and welcoming. He went over the basics of paddling and how to stay safe. Will definitely be returning. Also, it is beautiful and peaceful on the water.
Colin Drane: Terrific experience.
Veronica Lapik: Owner is very pleasant guy ;returned phone call promptly: explained and informed about different oprion when kyaking in rived: can kayak in water with easy rapids or no rapids . Enjoying kyaking each time I go there.Recommended to my friends and will continue recommending this place..Pleasant view, can see wild life around and enjoy peaceful ride on kayak!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩
Sam Cruz: Great fun! Jack is wonderful.
Ani Ortiz: It was such a fun and nice experience. The owner brought us down in a van and gave us life jackets and our kayaks then we were off. We chose the farmington river so it took about two and a half hours to get back to where we started but it was such a scenic view.I plan to go again because of how great the experience was
