Stevens Creek Reservoir
Location Description
 Steven
Creek Reservoir is a 92 acre non-power boating reservoir,
conveniently located in the South Bay foothills near Highway
280 in Cupertino.
The reservoir provides
paddlers with peace and quiet, warm yet refreshing water,
and abundant wildlife. These qualities combine to make Stevens
Creek Reservoir a great kayaking destination.
Stevens
Creek Reservoir is Outback Adventures’ home base
for kayak
rentals and kayaking
instruction.
The warm, protected lake waters provide
a perfect training ground to learn basic kayak skills
before heading out onto one of Outback’s intermediate and
advanced courses in the ocean environment. During peak
season, groups can be found meeting under our canopy on
the boat ramp almost every weekend. Remember to pre-register
for your course!
The reservoir is also a great place
to try out a kayak you have been thinking about buying.
Almost all kayaks that we sell in our retail store can
be tried out at Stevens Creek, just be sure to call ahead
to set up an appointment.
Just a short
jaunt
from
the hustle and bustle of the greater San Jose Area, Stevens
Creek Dam is ideal for people looking for a different
outdoor activity to do on a weekend afternoon. In addition
to kayak rentals and instruction, this Santa Clara County
Park offers an array of outdoor activities
including hiking,
fishing,
picnicking, and
mountain
biking.
Outback Adventures’ kayak rental
facility is located on the boat ramp in the main
parking lot. Hourly kayak rentals are available every weekend
starting mid-May through early September, from 11:00
A.M. – 5:00
P.M. For pricing and more specific information please

Creek Reservoir Kayak Rentals page. To see more
