★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Canoe, SUP and kayak rentals are available for Gatineau residents and non-residents. $16 for 1 hour with the resident card or $20 for others. Includes safety vest. Leamy Lake can be quite busy with motorized boats during the weekend which can make navigation tricky. Service was OK but somewhat chaotic as the indoor staff can be out of the loop with the outdoor staff. Overall pleasant outdoor experience within city limits.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice and convenient place to rent kayak, canoe or ski gear, etc for outdoor activities at the Lac Leamy. There is also a restaurant right next, with good food choices to complement the day.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is extremely useful for summer activities and superb family time.
Except the poop infested ground.
Recently after multiple visits, this place went down hill.
No management seems to be found, meaning it is controlled mostly by young employees .While I have no issues about this situation, there seems to be no improvement in the way you actually "reserve" services (note that you cannot reserve)
There is 2 stations, paying for pass stations and pick up boats stations.
No communication is done between the 2 spots.
Paying will say nothing is free and go see pick up station, you go there and you're stuck looking at a kid struggle with overwhelming-frustrated clients.
There is way too few items to select especially for this location.
Then what the staff tell you? "Go harass people coming to shore and mug them for their pass" In other words, work for us and wait, like a seagull after fries. Also staff forget to give pass back because there were about 8 items free of use and apparently already used (The stuff stayed there during my time on water)
Now they even charge an extra for every 5 minutes late (Out of an hour)
Story is, slow employees make you start late (45-50 minutes instead of 1h)
Boats and other people slow your fun time, you have to plan going back to the station 20-25 minutes in advance. Actual time 20 minutes? Cost nearly 20$ without extra from 5 minutes late.
There should DEFINITIVELY BE another system pro-consumers
There should be more money invested in water stuff not in useless workers(There were 3 employees on the shore 1 working, taking pass. The others telling us, go pick your stuff we're not helping you)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was able to rent a kayak on a walk in. No waiting, professional and friendly service. Me and my friends had a wonderful, very scenic 8.5km loop, starting at the quarry with the impressive Casino fountain cascading down on us.We made the decision to keep going towards the river, which was choppy and slightly challenging but very doable.
We then headed out towards the right to the abandoned remnants of a huge wooden boat that sticks out of the water like the ribs of a dinosaur. We continued through the lily pads and almost seemingly untouched eco system thriving all around us in the shallow waters.
Spotting a blue heron that took flight as it heard us go by and many red striped turtles sunning themselves on rocks and deadheads. As we approached the last bridge to go under, a quick and easy portage was in order and we then paddled our way directly straight ahead of us to return the kayak at Lac Lemey rental area. What a day:)
