Thinking about gifting a kayak rental at Camp Richardson, any tips?

Hey everyone! I’m considering gifting my sister and her boyfriend a kayak rental at Camp Richardson for their anniversary. They love being outdoors, and I think it’s such a cool experience. I love the old Tahoe vibe there too. What do you guys think? Any tips on what they should wear or bring?

Just rented kayaks at Camp Richardson! Here’s my experience.

Just got back from renting kayaks at Camp Richardson. OMG, what a beautiful place! The historic lodge is super charming, and the lake was perfect. They provided a quick demo before we hit the water, which was great for my friend, who was a bit nervous. We had such a fun time paddling around. Highly recommend it!
