BEST vacation experience - We had an incredible experience renting from Glacier clear water kayaks! The crystal-clear kayaks let us see through the pristine water at Lake 5!! The views were absolutely breathtaking, with mountains reflecting on the water in every direction. We also loved Lake 5 since it was much quieter and more peaceful than Lake McDonald! Jason was very accommodating and provided us with all the gear and provisions we needed. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Truly a memorable adventure that we would recommend to anyone visiting Montana!

Thoroughly enjoyable - We rented clear kayaks for the afternoon 1:00 to 5:00. They were brought to the lake for us & we were given a tutorial, which was helpful and informative. The equipment was in great shape. The lake, breeze, and scenery were absolutely beautiful. We could not have asked for a better day. The clear kayaks allowed us to see anything that was in the water. It was definitely a new and fun experience. We texted 30 minutes before we were done, and they came back to pick us up. It was one of the most enjoyable things we've done in Montana. I would highly recommend it.

Beautiful relaxing day on the lake - Jason made this experience incredible. We were actually early and he had no problem choosing the best lake (lake 5) quickly and delivering the Kayaks for us. He told us where we could park the kayaks for a relaxing swim and time on a small beach. Just what we needed to wrap up the time near Kalispell. Highly recommend this company.

Fantastic Clear Kayak Experience on Lake McDonald - Jason was nothing short of amazing! He showed great hospitality, was incredibly friendly, and never made us feel rushed. He made sure we had the best possible experience, helping us set up the clear kayaks and offering helpful advice before we set out. The kayaks themselves were sturdy, comfortable, and perfect for taking in the breathtaking views over Lake McDonald.

Best kayak company - Host has an upbeat energy and is very helpful and considerate. He wants to make sure you are having a good time and getting the full experience. I wouldn’t choose another company. We kayaked around lake five and got amazing views, water is crystal clear expect in the deep ends but that’s very normal.

Jason is wierd - Jason seems like a great guy and the kayak rentals were good. We accidentally had him bring the kayaks to our campsite because we thought it was closer to the water than it turned out to be. But Jason was very accomodating, we followed him down to the dock at Lake Mcdonald and unloaded right there. After we dropped off the kayaks back with Jason he reminded us about the delivery tip and requested a review. Signal is bad out there and we're on vacation so it got put on the to-do list for when we got home. It has not even been a week since we rented and Jason has texted us no less than FIVE TIMES about a review and a tip, most of which came while we were out at Glacier. The most recent one he just texted a screenshot of their venmo. Kayaks were dope but Jason needs to learn better people skills. When I texted him about how he came across as rude to my group, he responded with the text in the photo. As promised, I did tip him and this is my honest review.
