Quick Details
Going camping with friends or just want to experience a different part of our regional waterways?
If so, grab a DIY raft or two and head for the hills…or the lake… DIY rafts are deflated, packed and ready to go, and are easily inflated (takes approximately 15 minutes to inflate with hand pumps) when you arrive at your own private destination. Once you’re finished with your adventures, deflate and roll back up and drop it back to the Lazy Day shop at the rear of the Calgary Curling Center on Memorial.
What is a DIY Raft?
Our 6-person DIY rafts are the same high-quality rafts we use on the Bow, but can be taken to a body of water of your choice, and are a great add-on to any camping or hiking trip. They can be rented for 1, 2, 3 days or longer. Why not escape to Calgary’s incredible surroundings with a raft at your disposal?
Location and transportation
DIY rafts are picked up and dropped off at the main Lazy Day shop at 720 3 St NW (inside the Calgary Curling Club). Rolled up rafts are approximately 3′ tall by 2′ in diameter (1m by 60cm) and weigh 65lbs/30kgs. They easily fit in SUVs and truck beds and should work in larger-sized sedan trunks.
What is provided
We will provide a safety kit and foot pump. PFDs and paddles can be rented for a nominal fee.
