History & Geography

In the 1960s, Carl Frost came to Tennessee with the vision to create the best canoeing experience for families in the state. Being an experienced surveyor, he viewed all of Middle Tennessee by air and water for the perfect stretch and settled on our portion of the river. Duck River Canoe Rental was born.

Carl especially liked this stretch of the river
because of its natural charm, wildlife, and for the waters that were friendly for families and first-timers. With this ideal in mind, Duck River Canoe Rental became the first canoe company in this
part of the state for the Duck River.

Since it was founded, our company has been a family-run business. Larry and Karen Wells
acquired DRCR in 2006 so it could stay open and
be enjoyed by many. Duck River Canoe strives to maintain Carl's original vision for their customers who want a unique experience of Tennessee's natural treasure first hand. They will continue to
do so until they can pass the torch to another owner that shares the same passion to preserve this experience on the Duck River.
