About

Wisconsin's oldest whitewater rafting outfitter, since 1975. Rafting the Peshtigo and Menominee Rivers. Beautiful campgrounds/cabins, tubing, and kayaking

Description

Our season runs April through September. Our whitewater adventures will take you through pristine Northwoods forests on wild Wisconsin whitewater rivers. The Peshtigo River boasts the longest stretch of continuous rapids in the Midwest commercially run, and the mighty Menominee is the border between Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula -- breathtaking!

Kosir’s is the best! Our family has been coming here for decades, and we’ve always had a good experience. I can still remember getting the “safety talk” before Peshtigo rafting when I was a kid. My wife and I recently visited for camping, kayaking, and a good meal in the restaurant. We got to meet brothers Nick and Dale, who are now running the show. They took over from their father, who I believe took over from another family member, so this place is def family owned and operated. They are making some wonderful upgrades, including a couple nice cabins that should be available to rent out soon. The campsites are all very nice, and the sand volleyball court looked great too. We got a shuttle from Mike, their step brother, who is super nice and wouldn’t even accept any money for the ride. He was also our server at the restaurant the night before and was very helpful w drink options. If you are looking for a place to camp, eat, or get on the river do it!, definitely go to Kosir’s.
This place is so awesome. The guys are great and really hooked it up! Had a blast on the Menominee today and will surely be back to do the Peshtigo next spring.
Go there it’s a lot a fun and there staff is nice. Our guide DJ was amazing. We had a group of six and we all enjoyed it a lot. Definitely bring sun screen tho.
Went rafting with my son. Ben was our leader at the back. He was great and my son said it was the best thing he did whilst we were up in WI. We booked the 2 hour tour and we spotted the other companies 3 hour tour as we blasted past them... ha ha. Just book the 2 hour Kosir tour ! He also has a wealth of knowledge on the environment and we were lucky to spotted the rare flying shrimp. These guys also recommended a great restaurant to eat afterwards.
Excellent camping and very welcoming host. We definitely felt at home and as though these were old friends.
I want to start off by saying that I have booked with Kosir's a couple times in the past and had absolutely wonderful experiences with the guides. However, this most recent trip, my girlfriends and I had a not so great experience with our guide DJ. We arrived on time for our 2:00pm rafting trip on Menominee river. Our guide, DJ, greeted us at the barn's entrance. From the start, he was stumbling over his words and kept repeating himself. It was very obvious to both our group and the couple that was with us, that DJ was intoxicated and/or high. This behavior continued during our rafting trip. While giving safety instructions, he kept repeating himself and forgetting what he had just said. Multiple members of our group noticed the smell of alcohol on his breath and noted his pupils were dilated. He was chewing gum the entire rafting trip. During the intense rapids, DJ did do very well as a guide: yelling out commands clearly and getting us through the rapids safely.
We've been going here for years! The campgrounds are gorgeous! Everyone working there is like family! They take such good care of us! Everything you could want for an amazing adventure is here! Rafting is a blast, kayaking relaxing, food at the bar is delicious, etc. You can have the most peaceful retreat or most exciting adventure! Whatever you are looking for is there for you to find! Thank you everyone for your kindness, thoughtfulness, attentiveness, humor, and everything!!!
I am the scheduler and trip coordinator for a Boy Scout troop and really put a lot of focus on planning once in a lifetime, epic level trips for the boys. I have dealt with guides all over the country in a multitude of high adventure disciplines and DJ, our guide, was OUTSTANDING at his job. I suggest that anyone interested in a whitewater trip look him up! Truly a master of his craft and an amazing human as well!
Camping, bar-resturant and WHITE WATER RAFTING!! Over the last few years, I find myself frequenting Kosir's, mainly to go rafting, but I can't go rafting before I've had some biscuits and gravy... really, whatever you want. If I'm camping there, I'm probably eating there because the cooks know what they're doing. Nothing fancy, but it's done right. Looking for something fancy? Go back to the city. Want to try a wing competition during Pesh fest that will melt your face off? I thought I was going to die and I'll probably do it all over again.
Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. They were eager to share their knowledge, whether it was rafting tips from our guide, hiking recommendations, or a really good hot sauce in the restaurant. I had so much fun and would definitely come again!!
