I'm the third generation (my kids are now the fourth) to regularly visit the Boundary Waters. My father and uncle switched to CCO for their partial outfitting about 30 years ago and we have never looked back. They are efficient, friendly, no-nonsense, responsive, and knowledgeable. Never had even an inkling of a problem. Everything just works, every single time. The Olson's are great people and you can trust them to do their part to make your trip fantastic.

From taking care of our permits, to preparing our gear, food, and everything, CCO was the best from start to finish. They made planning the trip so easy for my group.

At the end of our trip when one bag was left at the final portage, Brian took a boat back and found it for us. What amazing service and care! Thank you to the whole CCO team for organizing our trip.

The location is about 9 minutes from town. He is very knowledgeable and adventurous. He had a lot of good stories, was a good teacher with paddling and was very chill. I would definitely organize another trip with them. Because we are novices and were in a three-person canoe, Jake did all of our brief portages. Safety was the highest priority. He was very mindful for us to not rush the experience.

Not only were our trips beautiful, safe, and fun, but they were educational as well. Jake was very informative about the flora, fauna, and history of the area.
