The Lineup
Every rental runs two hours and includes board or boat, paddle, and a Coast-Guard-approved PFD. Just bring sunscreen and a sense of adventure.
All ages · beginner-friendly
Our classic SUPs are stable, forgiving, and made for Lake Dillon's glassy mornings. Glide past pine-lined coves with the Tenmile Range on the horizon — no experience required. Board, paddle, and PFD included.
Intermediate to advanced
Lightweight 14-foot carbon raceboards for paddlers who want to cover water. Faster, sleeker, and built for distance touring across the reservoir. Recommended for confident paddlers with prior SUP time.
All ages · easy to paddle
Sit-comfortable single kayaks that track straight and turn easy — ideal for exploring Dillon's shoreline, inlets, and quiet bays at your own pace. Paddle and PFD come with every rental.
Seats 2 · one flat rate
Bring a partner, a parent, or a kid along. Our stable tandem kayaks seat two and make for an easy, social paddle — one flat rate covers both seats for the full two hours on the water.
Only on Lake Dillon
Beyond rentals, Lake Dillon is home to two things no other Colorado outfitter offers — an authentic outrigger canoe club and a true wing foiling scene.
The outrigger canoe — the wa'a— carried Polynesian voyagers across thousands of miles of open Pacific. We've carried that heritage to 9,000 feet. As the only outrigger canoe club in Colorado, we paddle six-person canoes and sleek OC-1s across Lake Dillon at sunrise and sunset, building the kind of crew and rhythm the tradition is built on.
New to outrigger? Book a guided tour and we'll teach you the stroke. Already hooked? Drop in on a club paddle or join for the season and get discounted rates on every craft we run.

When the afternoon alpine wind fills in across the reservoir, we trade paddles for wings. Wing foiling rises you up onto a hydrofoil and flies you silently above the water — one of the most exhilarating things you can do on a lake, and one of the only places in Colorado you can learn it.
As the only wing foiling hub in Summit County, we coach first-timers through their very first flights and dial in technique for paddlers ready to progress. Lessons are a premium, instructor-led program — reach out and we'll build a session around your level and the day's conditions.
Who we are
Stand Up Paddle Colorado was the first paddleboard outfitter in the state, and Lake Dillon has been our home water ever since. What started as a handful of boards has grown into the most complete paddling experience in Summit County — without ever losing the soul of it.
We believe these mountains change people. Every rental, tour, and lesson is run with respect for the lake we love and a commitment to authentic, life-changing time outdoors.
Colorado's original paddleboard outfitter — we put the first SUPs on these lakes and we've guided here ever since.
Environmental stewardship is core to how we operate. We paddle these waters with care so the next 15 years look like the last.
We operate on public lands under a U.S. Bureau of Land Management special-use permit — fully authorized, low-impact access.
Reserve your spot and we'll have it ready when you arrive. Want to go today? Walk-ins are always welcome— no same-day reservation needed. We don't book same-day rentals, but there's always room at the shoreline for one more paddler.
