Wonderful customer service here, with very knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff. I’ll go here for all my paddling products & supplies. The pond out back is great for trying out boats & paddles! That really helps narrow down the choices to the perfect selection.

Love the products offered at Rutabaga and the very helpful staff. We bought our first canoe there, and many accessories. We also love going to Canoecopiain Madison every year which is an event that they sponsor.

Absolutely the best place to buy a quality Kayak, the advice we got was excellent! The breath of choice is very good! We ended up testing 5 Kayaks on the pond located behind the store! We took 2 Kayaks home. They also have a lot of accessories!
Rutabaga Paddlesports is a family-owned and operated business, and the nation's leading canoe and kayak shop with a boat for every type of paddler. Our staff are all paddlers, even our accountant, our MIS guy and our part-time janitor. We walk the talk. If you want the best customer service, give us a shot and you'll be a customer for life.
Want to test paddle a boat or two to make sure it's the right one? Of course you do! Why wait for a random demo day, when everyday at Rutabaga is a demo day?!
