Went for the 2nd time this year and it was as beautiful as last year! Very nice crew and lovely peaceful scenery.

We've been to Foggy Bottom Canoe twice. Although our first time was great, this time was awful. We waited over two hours from when we checked in - and no canoe came. They were very slow and disorganized. Some people who arrived an hour and a half after us got to go first. The canoe experience itself is lovely and takes around 2-3 hours to go down the river once you're in a canoe. But after waiting hours in the heat and there still being no sign of us getting on a canoe, we got a refund and went home. An especially big disappointment when you've hired a babysitter for the day. I'd highly suggest to their management to either start a reservation system or be more up front if there is a huge wait. I could see we weren't the only people super frustrated by the experience.

We had a great trip with our 4- and 6-year olds. Was just the right length, staff was helpful and friendly, and vibe was cool at the registration area. Highly recommend! We even left a shoe there accident and a representative mailed it back to me! Really good folks.

I go kayaking several times a year and always use Foggy Bottom. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Tip your driver. College students need money.

Have kayaked with Foggy Bottom twice in the last 3 years. Once in 2019 & once in 2022 both times were great. Prices are fair for a day full of fun & the staff of enthusiastic young adults have always been helpful & organized, I own a kayak & always choose to just rent through these folks because it's so easy & hassle free, Hoping they are able to accommodate the longer routes again soon though.

Your staff was very accommodating (Eli and the two young men that helped take our four kayaks out of the river on Sunday). This experience was a highlight of my visit to Nashville to visit a local friend.

We didn’t even use any services from Foggy Bottom but Pat was so nice and sweet I would definitely recommend Foggy Bottoms. She offered a much needed map and advice for our family kayak trip Saturday, August 28th since it was the first time our 8 year old granddaughter had her own kayak.

Couldn't ask for much more then a couple hours floating down the river. Kids and I have done it twice now and look forward to doing it again. Down one star because the price matches a premium product while some of their stuff needs a little TLC and getting long in the tooth. Staff is friendly and helpful and experience is still good. Just wish some of it was slightly better taken care of.

What a perfect escape! It's only 30 minutes outside of Nashville, but feels like a world away. Only $35 for a kayak, $45 for a canoe. I've camped with them and kayaked and it's a great experience all around! Plenty of parking, then they shuttle you to the starting point of the river. Once they get your boat into the water you make your way back and it's just such a gorgeous way to spend a summer or fall day! Pack a lunch and paddle away!Staff is kind. Fellow canoe-ers and kayak-ers are fun to talk to along the way. I think my only complaint would be that many large groups go and sometimes just sit in the middle of the river in a clump and it can be difficult to get around them. That however, is not Foggy Bottoms fault. If you are looking to get outside and do something active I highly recommend you use FB. They are convenient and a great way to spend your day. Can't wait to come back soon.

Most of the staff is great; hard working and friendly. Nice place to wait and relax until the van is loaded and driver picks up the guests to take them to their kayaks and canoes. Cute and attractive setting. River is very pretty and clean. The reason for only three stars:Major complaint - van driver did not wear a mask. Terribly disappointed, angry and baffled why no mask was work by the driver with a van full of guests.

We had a 1 pm reservation and didn’t get into the water until 3:30. The staff told us they were running a new system and very behind. We waited 1 hour at the office and 1.5 at the dock. You have to be at the ending point and then back to the dock by 6 or it’s a late fee. The path they put us on was estimated 3 hours, which doesn’t work out time wise since they were so late.
