Serving the Paddlesports Community Since 1971

Owned and operated by Mark and Val Miltner, the Pine River Paddlesports Center began with Mark’s acquisition of a Pine River canoe livery in 1971. We’ve been building our business and raising our family here ever since. We’re passionate about paddling and it shows. All of us take great pride in being the Midwest’s premier paddlesports provider.

Here’s what our 35+ years of experience means to you:

• Our expertise combined with the largest rental inventory in the Midwest assures each and every member of your group is outfitted with the best equipment.
• Concise and friendly instruction will allow even the first timers of your group to paddle with confidence and ease.
• Planning a river trip your family will never forget is easy with our extensive knowledge of area rivers, landscape and wildlife.
• We are committed to the protection and conservation of Michigan’s wildlife and rivers and encourage our guests to continue the legacy of responsible outdoor recreation.
