General Store & Market

"Rented a kayak from the Gibsonton "General Store & Market" for a paddle down Bullfrog Creek. Fantastic customer service! Friendly. Helpful. Had a nice paddle into the Bay, explored various branches off the creek, mangroves, and saw plenty of Florida nature. At one point, we got "lost" on our way back and the owner, Shawn (Sean), a phone call away, was willing to help navigate back (it was our fault - should have paid closer attention to our route - but we found our way). It was a nice day to be "lost" (full sun, 73 degrees)! Highly recommend the General Store & Market for your next Kayak rental. We will use them again soon!"

"Nice spot to put in the kayaks and fish Bullfrog creek, quick access to mangroves! We caught red fish, sheepshead caught on shrimp! Owners don't charge a fee to launch your own kayak and have plenty of kayaks or paddle boards to rent! Also have a nice store to buy any extra needed supplies. I definitely would recommend to come check out this place with great fishing, awesome views, and a nice store that also sells locally made products as well from shirts to honey!"

"We rented kayaks. The owner was so friendly. It was an overcast day & he checked the weather to make sure we were good to go. He helped us get in & out of the kayak safely. We had the most amazing time! The scenery is so beautiful & we even spotted a dolphin! I am definitely going back again… this place is a best keep secret."

"We wanted to do some salt water kayaking near our vacation rental and saw this place as we drove by. The owner was super nice, helped us launch and gave suggestions of where to go. It would be really fun with a larger group to paddle around the mangroves - we went all the way to the bay and back in about 2 hours with time to linger here and there. Snacks and beverages from the store made for a great time!"
