Rental and Shuttle Information

MRO offers rentals of rafts, kayaks, inflatable kayaks and canoes, inflatable canoes, SUP paddle boards. We provide shuttles, drop off and pick up service, as well as fully provisioned trips including food and camping gear. MRO uses only top quality boats that are tough and in excellent shape. Our rafts are primarily self bailing rafts that are new to one year old.

Please see attached list for our current rental rates.

Swivel seats up front as well as rear seats and anchor frames are an option for our raft packages.

Smith River shuttles for vehicles from put in to take out are $120 per vehicle on gravel, $130 on the pavement.

Drop off of gear on the Smith River and pick up at take out is $295 for the first (2) rafts, and $50 for each additional raft if you are renting from us. When MRO delivers rafts they are inflated and river ready at the put-in.

If you prefer to pick up and deliver rafts yourself, we can provide you with a trailer, with the rafts you rent from us, inflated, strapped down and ready to go, for $25 per day.

Smith River van shuttles for up to 8 people and all your gear (up to 2 rafts) to the put-in, in a van and trailer, and then meet you at the take-out, is $439. We have available bear proof Yeti coolers for $10.00 per day and electric bear storage fences for $20.00 per day.

We also offer discounted lodging in Great.

Thank you for considering MRO for your rental and shuttle needs. We will work hard to win your business and make your trip seamless, trouble free, and as enjoyable as possible.
