| - I've been a customer of this place for about 2 years now. I live in Las Vegas and most locals dread the summer months and the hellish temps it brings, but ever since I tried kayaking for the first time last year I look forward to the summer eagerly just to go kayaking. I didn't want to take the tours because I wasn't in great shape, so I wanted to do a rental instead and be able to go at my own leisure, exploring and just enjoying the scenery. And that's pretty much what I do every time I go now. I paddle out to one of the nearby coves with some food and a beach mat, drag the kayak onto shore, swim, lay out, relax, go paddle and exploring some more, and just enjoy the fact that I'm going places on my own power, without gas, gadgets, or having to bring a pickup truck and trailer! If you don't want to bother with all that stuff (or just can't afford it), kayaking is a really nice way to explore Lake Mead.
I only use the sit on top kayaks and have tried the "double" sit-on-top kayaks and the solo sit-on-top ones and personally, the solo ones glide over the water really well and are really easy to use as a novice kayaker. The double ones are really easy to use too, but of course they go slower. The company is really chill, takes cash, and are run by real people you can talk to, not big time Corporate entities just out to make a buck. The rental location is super easy to find, following the kayaks down to the water couldn't be simpler, and pick up for the gear is always on-time, sometimes even early. The rental prices for Lake Mead simply cannot be beat. I couldn't be more satisfied and very much enjoy having a go-to rental company that provides me excellent customer service and a competitive price every time.
P.S. For first timers, check the forecast for wind speeds before you go out as much as you can. Trying to kayak in high wind is much harder! If you want the challenge though, more power to you :)
