The staff at St. Regis Outfitters was very helpful and knowledgeable when we set up the 9 Carries trip. The boats and equipment were ready when we got there. Staff drove us to the drop off point and off we went! Upon returning, it took no time to get processed and out. One of the staff recommended a local cafe (Blue Moon Cafe) that was excellent. We will definitely use the outfitters again on our next trip. A+

This company rents canoes and kayaks, arranges camping trips and supplies guides, if needed. They have all the equipment, for rent or for sale, and are extremely helpful. We purchased a train-canoe package ($54.00p.p.) which included a return trip by train from Lake Placid to Saranac and everything required for a two hour paddle down the Saranac River. This paddle route puts in right at the store in downtown Saranac (three blocks from the train station) and includes a pick up and drop off at the train station. It's a lovely route, easy paddle and very pastoral once you get out of town. Excellent choice for the first time paddler. (They also have a base at Clear Lake
