Frequently asked

How does self-service pickup work?
Book online, sign the digital liability waiver and upload a government ID. Your PIN codes arrive by text. At the Adventure Crate, use your codes to open the container, take your gear off the rack, and go.
What hours can I pick up gear?
The Adventure Crate sits inside Jessica Hollis Park, so pickup and return follow park hours — sunrise to sunset, daily. The crate itself is self-service the whole time: no counter, no queue.
Do I have to pay the park entrance fee?
No. Booking a rental with us waives the LCRA park entrance fee at Jessica Hollis Park.
Do I have to inflate the gear myself?
No. Paddleboards and kayaks are stored pre-inflated on racks inside the container. Find the board with your number on the side, unlock it, and carry it to the water.
Can I take the gear somewhere other than the park?
Yes. Paddleboards and kayaks are racked and pre-inflated so you can grab one and launch at Jessica Hollis Park in minutes — but manual pumps are available, so you can deflate, pack it down and take it to another spot like Lake Travis or Lady Bird Lake.
How do I find my board or kayak inside the crate?
Each board and kayak carries a white number on its side. Yours is in the text with your PIN codes — match the number, then unlock that item with the code provided.
How do the locks work?
Each item is chained to a metal D-ring with a smart lock. Enter your code, remove the lock from the D-ring, and let the chain hang toward the floor with the lock still attached to it — that way it is waiting for you when you return.
Can I move the locks around?
Absolutely NOT. It is critical that all locks remain with the gear you picked up so that we can maintain the clarity between customers and our operations to give you the appropriate codes for your access.
What about life vests and paddles?
Life vests are inside the container and the size is printed on the inside of each vest. Lime green vests are for children. Paddles stand to the right when you open the front door — Paddleboard paddles have the handle and one fin. Extend a SUP paddle to roughly 8 to 10 inches above your head. The Kayak paddle has fins at both ends. Feel free to grab a kayak paddle for a paddleboard if you prefer to sit down the entire time.
Do I lock the container while I am on the water?
Yes. Lock the front door before you head to the water, and keep your codes — the same ones let you back in when you return.
How do I return the gear?
Put it back on exactly the same rack, with the board pointed toward the front door so its number faces you. Secure the smart lock and chain to the metal D-ring near the front straps, then lock the front door before you leave.
Does anything need to be sent back to you after a return?
Yes — text us a photo of the gear locked back on its rack and a photo of the front door locked with the lock in the handle. Close door with handle up then pull lever down to line up the holes to secure the lock. Send both to 512-763-0912 once you are done.
What happens if gear is not returned properly?
Gear must be back before your booking window ends, in the same condition and on the same rack, with everything locked. A $50 non-compliance fee applies otherwise.
Where can I paddle?
Our crate sits at Jessica Hollis Park on Lake Austin, so you can launch right there — we recommend it. Because the gear packs down, you can also bring it anywhere within your allotted rental time.
