Are you ready to experience the quiet beauty of Rome’s waterways without the hassle of hauling your own gear? We are so excited to share that getting out on the water has never been simpler thanks to the brand-new self-serve kayak rental station at Walden Park! This world-class addition to our community makes it available for everyone: from solo explorers to large families: to enjoy a day of paddling with just a few taps on their phone! Come and explore the serene beauty of Walden Pond and Lake Camelot today!
Your Gateway to Walden Pond
The new rental station is perfectly situated at the Walden Park Kayak Launch on 9th Avenue, right where Spring Branch Creek meets the crystal-clear waters of Lake Camelot. This specific location is a local favorite because it provides immediate access to Walden Pond, a designated non-motorized waterway that remains peaceful, quiet, and perfectly still throughout the day. Whether you are looking to clear your head in nature or want a safe, active environment for the kids to practice their paddling skills, this hidden gem offers something for everyone!

Simple 4-Step Rental Process
Rome has partnered with Rent.fun to provide a high-tech, seamless rental experience that eliminates the need for traditional rental shops or long wait times. The kiosk is open from sun-up to sun-down, ensuring that an early morning sunrise paddle or a late afternoon sunset cruise is always within reach. Everything you need for a safe and successful trip: including the kayak, a high-quality paddle, and a properly fitted life jacket: is waiting for you right at the water’s edge!
