Freedom Canoe & Kayak

I bought a Black Spruce canoe from the owner several years ago. Great service and customer support. The owner did not try to upsell me and discouraged me from buying extras he thought I wouldn't need. He was very knowledgeable and worked with me to find an option within my budget. I think very highly of Freedom.

(It's several years since I bought my first canoe from Bob. I upgraded to a smaller carbon fibre one a couple years ago, when my last kid grew up--something I could portage on my own more easily. Same great experience shopping at Freedom Canoe & Kayak. I also looked up the posts of the one dingledork who made the one terrible post about Freedom. The guy is a griefer who has posted 8 reviews, all 1 star except one 3 star review--all negative. That guy is one of those man-children who spits out negative reviews for entertainment. Everyone I know who's ever bought a boat from Bob loves his service and store.>

I was hesitant on buying one via an add online.

Seriously. Don't let a bad review steer you away from purchasing a kayak through these guys.

they made this a super easy and a stress free experience.

Bob and I believe his wife Dena (sorry if I
I'm wrong) and truly great.. Bob does not need a spanking by any means ahaha. These two were so helpful. I can't emphasize that enough, they get back to you almost immediately and answer any questions they can to the best of their abilities.

Having this be my first time doing something for myself like this, it was really exciting and could have made it a little easier to take advantage of the situation... They ended up saving me half a K.. Bob really went out of his way and helped me from making a mistake of buying something I didn't need.

If there was any underling meaning behind what these guys do here I believe that would have been the opportunity to strike. Realistically they'd never have to see me again so why not? That just shows these guys want people to actually just enjoy themselves and live their lives with out going in the whole and selling a body part to do so.

Bob also took the time to help me and make sure I knew what I was doing when putting my rack on the car. Made sure I knew what knotts to use and taught me a little trick, keeping the ties nice an clean and not blowing around.

As far as the actually kayak it's self, it's perfect. The only thing is, is the compartment for storing is not as big as I wanted but I honestly never asked about it anyway because I was so excited. It is a fishing kayak, so clearly its just a little built in bate box but I have an option to add a piece in the back and I will definitely be getting it through these guys if they're able to help me. So just make sure you ask all and every question you have, they're not bull headed or make you feel some type of way when asking they're just to point. And that's what you want right?!

100% recommend.

Wonderful paddle boarding experience :) Friendly staff
