Grand River FloatsSpend a relaxing 3 hours paddling the Grand River from Lowell to Ada. We provide the shuttle, a little instruction, and equipment if necessary. This stretch of water is lightly developed, with frequent wildlife sightings, and easy paddling.
Cost: $35 with our gear/$25 with your own gear
A Day on the Bay
Spend a day seeing beautiful Suttons Bay and West Grand Traverse Bay in a whole new way. The day will start with a short instructional session followed by a nine mile tour from the base of Suttons Bay to Lee Point on West Bay. We will stop for a catered lunch at a private residence at about the halfway point of the tour. Some experience and a moderate level of fitness are required for this trip.
Cost: $100 pp includes lunch, post-paddle beverage, and shuttle.
Master the Manistee
Take a three-day kayak trip down West Michigan's premier riverway, the Manistee, and experience the transition from forested uplands to shoreline dunes. We'll paddle for 3-4 hours on day one, a full 8 hours on day two and another short 3-4 hour paddle on the third day, as we finish on the shores of downtown Manistee. Evenings will be spent at backcountry campsites but camping skills are not a requirement. Just the desire to get away from it all!!
Cost: $250 pp includes transportation to and from Grand Rapids, kayak and accessories, and breakfasts and dinners. Camping equipment rental available upon request.
Private Paddles
We may be able to accomodate small groups for day paddles in the Grand Rapids, MI area upon request. Please contact us via e-mail or phone for requests.
