Henry Horton State Park

Does anyone know of canoeing/kayaking opportunities of the SLOW & CALM variety on the nearby Duck River?

Google River Rats, it's out near Henry Horton. They rent canoes/kayaks/tubes and drive you to the put in or take out point. It's been VERY mellow every time we've gone. Price varies by how far you go. If you have your own equipment you can park in their field and pay a much smaller fee and they will drive you to a put in site upriver and let you drift back down to vehicle.

Higher Pursuits in Columbia was always excellent.

This is who we've rented Kayaks from in the past. It's an early morning (for me) check in. They load you in a van and drive you farther up. Takes a while to get back if you're a slow paddler. We basically just drifted the whole day and it was awesome. That was a few years ago, hope it helps!

If you want a truly enjoyable trip on a float you might want to venture down to Kingston Springs and check out Tip-A-Canoe Rentals and float the Scenic Harpeth River. The float through the Narrows Of the Harpeth is really an enjoyable calm float. They take to to drop off location and suply you with all you need and they will pick you up at take out location. Great enjoyable day of river floating................jmho
