Raft Rentals for the John Day and Grande Ronde River
We would love to get you on the water and help you and your family have a great time. We have what you need to run a successful multi-day trip on the John Day River, and we are the only company that can deliver boats to the John Day River and we will run your shuttle too!
You will need a permit to float the John Day River during the high season May 1- July 1st. Apply for a permit at Rec.Gov
If you would like a fully guided trip or a camp support boat give us a call at 541-419-2105 or go to the John Day page.
We do not offer day trip rentals.
You can rent everything from a fully rigged 15 or 14-foot NRS Star raft with oar frame setup, or a single person pontoon boat or stand up paddle board whatever you need, we have you covered!
Weekday and weekend rates are the same for any watercraft. All watercrafts have the required waterway access permit.
