- Nikki MIts family owned and operated. They are very nice and friendly, and accommodating. It was our time on a kayak. They went over safety and some how-to before we got on the water so we were much more confident. They even informed us of the water & wind conditions that day and showed us on the map where we would have to paddle harder and/or take it easy. We went on our own without a guide. It's a great place for beginners and kids or even a fun date. And it's very reasonably priced! We took the short route, and it could easily last all day. Well worth the money and time! We will definitely be going back!
- Ryan PFrank, the owner, is hospitable and knowledgeable. I’ve launched my kayak from Howell’s Riverfront and utilized the shuttle service many times over the course of the last 10 years. I’m happy to see y’all are still providing services, and I’m planning on getting back out to your lovely spot on the river very soon.
- Tom SWe have been using Howell Canoe Livery for years. So have many families, individuals and groups. Safety is number one and fun is number 2 when allowing the folks at Howell (all Columbus old timers) to be your rental and shuttle service while paddling the TPWD Colorado River Paddling Trail. Not sure about what you are getting yourself into? Frank, one of the owners, will lead you through a briefing on river conditions (with pictures and a map) and paddling tips to make sure you have an enjoyable trip. At the end of the 6 mile journey staff will pick you up and take you back to the livery. Be sure to bring a camera and a fishing pole with a bright colored Rooster Tail spinner tied to the end!
