2401 Commonwealth Ave. Newton; (617) 965-5110
Out by the unlikely junction of Commonwealth Avenue and Route 128, you can actually find yourself a bit of natural bliss by renting a canoe and paddling for miles along the Charles. With rates as low as $7 an hour, with room for up to three people per boat, it’s a great cheap getaway from the city. Pass by lily pad bogs, tiny islands in the stream, or if you must glide right under the highway. They’ll provide everything you need, including paddles and life jackets. Parking is across the river from the boathouse; walk back over the bridge to the docks. Rates are $7 an hour on weekdays, $8 an hour on weekends. For kayaks, $8/hour weekdays and $9/hour on weekends. Good bargains all. The center is open weekdays 10 A.M. to 8 P.M. weekends and holidays 9 a.m. to 8 P.M.
