Just wanted to see if anyone else has had as poor of service from Tip A Canoe on the Harpeth River as I have. Not only were they rude and short on the phone, but I felt like my request to rent a canoe to do some fishing was inconveniencing them. When I finally did confirm my fishing trip and drove almost an hour and a half to their location at 10am on a Saturday morning, nobody showed up!!! I called and talked to the owner who the lied to me and told me they would be there right away- 1 hour later, nobody arrived and I was pretty upset- I ended up using Foggy Bottom Canoe Rental- right across the street and David was easy to work with. Just be for-warned, if you are planning a trip there, maybe you should consider another outfitter that Tip a Canoe! -Fishin Freak

I called them back last summer about getting them to shuttle one canoe & rent another for a canoe-camping trip and the guy was a grade-a smarta$$. They have overnight trips listed for up to 4 nights and I had asked how many miles on the river the typical 2 and 3 night trips were and he was like " I can't read your mind you have to tell me how many miles you want to do." So I told him I assumed they had a normal put-in and take-out spot for the different trips and I just wanted to know the mileage for where they usually put people in & out for the 2 and 3 night trips and again very rudely he replied " I have 2 mile trips or I have much longer trips, I don't know what you want. " So I told him I was pretty sure no one would spend a 3 night trip floating 2 miles of the river and then he tells me something like " well I don't know you - you might .." At this point I just gave up and decided I wouldn't ever give them any kind of business at all, and I won't..

From whay I have seen Tip-A-canoe hires young kids for there summer help. Most years they have been very good but they do get some that are just ther to get a paycheck.
