Waiver 
Bring a printed and completed waiver (one per person) with you to expedite your check-in process. We also have waivers available on-site.  

Arrival Time
We recommend showing up 15 – 30 minutes before your reserved time (find parking, sign waivers, sunscreen, restrooms, etc). To maximize water time, your party should be ready to go 10 minutes before your reservation time.

A daily parking pass ($20) or annual parking pass ($40) is required to enter Stone Mountain Park. You can purchase parking on-site or pre-purchase parking here

Once you enter the park, follow the signs to the EAST LAKE (blue) park zone and The Commons Parking Lot. There are designated parking spots at the Lakeside Beach Pavilion. If those spots are full you can park anywhere in the Commons Parking Lot.

Pets
We love pets, but unfortunately not on the rental equipment.

Late Fees
We recommend paddling back at least 15 minutes before your scheduled end time. If you are not back by the end of your reserved time, we will, unfortunately, have to charge for the extended time. Please try to be courteous of the next guest(s) scheduled to be out on the water.
