Simple simple simple rental procedures. And great prices, too! Come here to rent a paddleboard, kayak, hydrobike, pedal boat, 18' electric surrey, or pontoon boat. Hello, fun! \n\nThis little rental shop is literally right on Tempe Town Lake, so it's the most convenient location ever. The kayaks, paddleboards, hydro-bikes, and pedal boats all run somewhere between $15 and $25 per hour, which is a killer price. An hour is plenty of time to go out for a rousing little water adventure!\n\nMy spectacular gal-pal and I opted for the 2 person kayak.... We put her in the back to \"steer\" since she's a more experienced water-sport-er than I... she was even on a rowing team once!! I sat in the front and acted like I knew what I was doing.... but I didn't. It was fun anyway! Now you aren't supposed to get in the water and swim, and you probably don't want to anyway because yuck-o; but this doesn't stop water from getting onto you. Your rear-end will get wet in the kayak for sure.\n\nNext we tried the HYDRO-BIKES. The best invention ever! Riding a bike on water?! It was almost biblical... I felt quite stable and safe up out of the water. You'll never get wet on this thing unless someone rams into you. It's a bit hard to steer and control, but doesn't take long to get used to. Sooooooo fun.\n\nLastly we decided to paddleboard, which is something else I've never done. I stayed on my knees for a bit because I was honestly a bit horrified. I felt like I'd surely tumble into the water and embarrass everyone... plus, I was having a horrendous time trying to steer. No matter what I did, I just kept drifting further out to sea... For about 2 whole minutes I felt very dramatic and like I was probably lost forever. But then I got over it and stood up (easier to paddle for sure, duh), and rowed my way back home!\n\nA seriously fun time on Tempe Town Lake was had, and I thank Tempe Town Lake Boat Rentals for providing us with quality equipment, awesome service and staff (they held onto all of our belongings and even took several pictures of us being all sporty), and great prices. Woo!
