    paddleboats and kayaks
    First time renting a paddleboat and kayak for a day floating on the river 2 adults (paddleboat) and a pre-teen (kayak). Staff was helpful and answered all of our questions...very clear on all river 'courtesies' and the route we would be paddling. It was a beautiful day, very calm river and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Very reasonable rates. We'll absolutely be doing this again.

    This isn’t a large museum but the displays were interesting. And we really enjoyed the boat ride on the canal. The guide gave a good presentation and even stayed a few minutes after the ride to finish answering questions.
