For the fall of 2025, we are happy to still offer Crystal River trips while improvements to the river’s habitat are taking place!
Something extra special during the fall paddles are the salmon that run the river! They will often splash your boat as they swiftly make their way to Glen Lake to spawn.
Throughout our shorter trip, you’ll still see Northern Michigan’s true residents: White Tail Deer, Blue Heron, Bald Eagles, otters, turtles, frogs and endless amounts of fish.
Meet at our shop in downtown Glen Arbor. We will then load you and the equipment into our vans and drive you to the point in point. Along the quick drive, our Kayak Valets will explain the river to you and answer any questions about paddling! You will then embark on the hour to hour and a half excursion for a fun and laidback adventure.
