This is a blast! Go for it! It was a fun experience for everyone! And the "passerbyers" waved and encouraged us on. In addition, we got info about becoming a member and receiving a discount of 50%. We hope you do it ... enjoy!

I had a great time at Wheel Fun! The staff was friendly, equipment was in good shape and prices were reasonable. Not to mention the location is a beautiful place to paddle around.
