Join us on a guided tour of the beautiful backwaters of the Huron River! Climb aboard our 34’ replica of a voyageur canoe, which was a Native American designed canoe used by the French Voyageurs during the Fur Trade Era. This canoe can accommodate up to 14 paddlers and can hold up to 18 people. Help us paddle along the marshes as we search for the wildlife that calls this area home.
