Does anywhere have kayak or other boat rentals open? Like maybe fort wilderness? Or bay lake tower? Or anywhere else on disney property? We have a car and are here now
 
I saw that but I’m trying to figure out what reopened after Covid. For example some of the resorts in that list aren’t open.
 

I tried several ways to get this info. I was told by a CM NO boat rentals at all are available except for Fishing excursions. However, another CM said you could rent them at the Fort if you were staying there or had a reservation for a Kayak. But they don't take reservations for Kayaks.. I am not sure they even have all the info

Thanks for your replies everyone! We went today to Fort Wilderness bike barn. We drove from AKL , no problem getting in as an AKL guest. We walked to the bike barn (they had a shuttle, but we avoided that). At the bike barn in the morning we were the only ones on the water. We had a great time. It is such an affordable activity! And we had a great time seeing turtles and the beautiful waterway.
 
We were at Fort Wilderness last week and they had both canoes and kayaks available to rent.
What? We are going to golf and did not want to bring our own golf clubs, but the golf courses are not renting clubs due to covid. I would think if they can rent canoes/kayaks, they could rent golf clubs.

We rented a kayak at fort wilderness a few days ago, and we went mini golfing (with disney provided putters) a day before that. I’m not sure about the larger courses, but Fantasia gardens mini golf provided sanitized putters.
 
I will call tomorrow and see if they will rent clubs now that i know they are renting canoes and kayaks. Maybe they will allow it if I reason with them.

The golf courses are under different management than resort amenity rentals.
 
Anybody hazard a guess as to WHY the Marina's aren't open? Is it a union issue?
