Michigan Canoe and Kayak Rentals
Located in the heart of Michigan's Huron-Manistee National Forest, Pine River Paddlesports Center is where family fun begins. We're up North but close by.
The Pine River Paddlesport Center rents canoes, kayaks, rubber rafts and tubes on Michigan's premier paddlesport rivers, the Pine and Big Manistee.
Offering the largest selection of canoes and kayaks in the Midwest, PRPC has the unique ability to outfit guests with superior craft and accessories appropriate for both weight and experience level.
We operate a very clean and quiet campground. If pitching a tent isn't your idea of fun, check out our quaint and comfortable Camping Cabin. We also have a gorgeous Pine River Vacation Rental home right on the banks of the Pine.
“Thanks again for providing us with such a fantastic base camp for our annual dads and kids Pine River weekend. The kids moped around Monday AM while getting ready for school grumbling that they didn't understand why they couldn't still be camping. Maybe we'll have to add a September rafting trip too! You really have a special place up there!” Best regards, Rob K. - Toledo, Ohio
Our campground is home of the Wow Wall, a 32 foot tall, super-safe, automatic-belay rock climbing wall.
Our PRPC Adventure Store is stocked with camping and river trip essentials, UpNorth clothing, souvenirs and gift items.
To help our guests enjoy the myriad of trails in the surrounding Manistee National Forest and Pere Marquette State Forest, we rent comfortable, user-friendly Specialized Mountain Bikes.
We also operate the Walker Bridge Canoe Livery, the only Pine River livery located right on the banks of the river. Off the beaten path, this beautiful stretch of river is a bit quieter, more shallow, and very family friendly. All trips end right back at the Walker Bridge Canoe Livery office where you and your group can relax, eat, swim, and play Frisbee or volleyball at our large picnic area.
PRPC was selected by AAA Members in Michigan Living Magazine as one of Michigan's Hidden Treasures.
