    Absolutely perfect day on the river!
    Anna M.

    This is the second time I have used Campbell's and they are still just as great as they were two years ago. We booked our reservation online and when we got there we had to wait about five minutes in line but the service was quick and friendly. We followed a woman to where we park our car - the end destination for the canoe trip and then drove back to the hub in the car with her. She was friendly and answered all of our questions. The canoe trip itself was spectacular, like last time. The river route is extremely peaceful and the trees and flowers and even the little obstacles in the river made it a perfect experience. I can't wait to go again next year when we're up at Houghton again. I would recommend taking your family or your significant other and enjoy the beautiful Michigan outdoors.

    We rented a tandem kayak here once, and the experience was very good. When you rent from them, they will follow them to your drop-off point, and they bring you back to the livery to set off; you'll go down the river to where your car is and simply leave the canoe sitting at the ramp. This "taxi" service is at no extra charge. They rent single kayaks, tandem kayaks, canoes, tubes, and other accessories. The tandem kayak was $35 for the 3-hour trip. We visited here on a colder Memorial Day weekend, and the river was relatively low traffic. I've gone down the river at later times in my own canoe during peak summer months. If you want to launch your own, the park across the street serves that purpose. On warmer days, the river will literally have traffic jams since the river isn't very wide at any point. The river is very easy to navigate but often filled with people who have never paddled down a river before. It was actually pretty annoying but at no fault to Campbell's, who probably makes a killing during the summer months.

    Summertime Rentals - Awesome pontoon boat we rented!!

    Do NOT rent here. We are experienced boaters and had a terrifying experience with their pontoon…read morerental. The boat's engine failed on the water, leaving us drifting into a rocky shoreline in dangerous, choppy conditions. Neighbors ran down to help, children were crying, and several people were injured. The company told us not to call the Coast Guard (others did anyway) and promised help--but instead sent two men in a truck who could only take three people, stranding the rest of us with small children and no keys or phones. When we finally got back, the owner was rude, blamed us, insisted his boats never fail, and tried to charge us the full rental plus $2,000 for damages--on the boat that had broken down. Check the Google reviews before booking--this isn't the first time this has happened. Spend your money elsewhere.

    Our whole experience was exceptional from the time we arrived where employees arrive at your car to…read morehelp with belongings. Thorough explanation of do's and dont's including recommendations for visits while on the water. Boat was beautiful and very clean. All of staff were beyond friendly and helpful, specifically a shout out to our main "coordinator" of the day Brendan, thank you for making such an amazing boating experience for me and my family. We will absolutely be renting and recommending in the future.
