We paddled a wide variety of waterways – rivers, lakes, and streams – in all types of watercraft – canoes, kayaks and sea kayaks – visiting Ontario and both of Michigan’s peninsulas. We hope some of our favorites become yours, or in the very least, we have whet your appetite to learn more about this quiet sport.

Now it is time for a poll or vote of your favorite waterway. Make your choice for the river, lake or stream you want to drop your oars in.
