Widgeon Valley National Wildlife Area

An amazing paddle in paddle out experience. Rentals were reasonable and great service. Beautiful scenery, clear clean water, and a lot to explore wether you are beginner or advanced adventurer

Good place to get away for the day.

This was an amazing experience to canoe and see the beauty all around, above and below! The water is amazingly clear and easy to navigate around in a canoe and breathtaking views the entire time. I highly recommend traveling here and experiencing this for yourself!

Lots of birds, many aquatic plants, small creeks and channels, few beaver dams, very clear waters; I was lucky to see a black bear swimming 30ft in front of my kayak...; there is a quiet campground, just make sure you don't enter or disturb areas that are marked ad closed for public. It can be a natural wonder, it depends on your reference point

A truly serene and peaceful place so close to the city. Easy to get to with canoe rentals nearby. Get there early for a perfect day. Hiking to rock pools or stops along the beaches (when the water levels are low!). Lots of wildlife to see, otters, beavers, bears, fish and tons of birds!
