Excellent staff and service, I did my reservation on their website, walked in to check-in at appointment time and I was on the water within 10 minutes. Equipment was all in good condition, the waterway was cleared of all fallen trees and I was picked up within 15 minutes of calling at the pickup point at the end of the trip. I've been on multiple trips that they offer and it has always been worth it.
Been going to Trading Post for about five years now and I’ve got to give this place its due praise and compliments. From the overall serenity of the place, the welcoming staff with smiling faces, ready to assist you in whatever comes their way. To the canoe/kayaking adventures….always a blast! This year we were celebrating not only a birthday for a young one but it was also their first time camping. The bar was set high for him with the expectations and boy did they live up to them!!! From the last minute arrangements, all the way to the overall safety of the campground, it was a phenomenal first time! It wasn’t very busy and because of that we were able to let the young ones explore a little bit more than if it had been busier. We definitely felt safe in doing so. The kayaking expedition was a little chilly but not enough to keep us from having a great time! Needless to say I am super pumped to be coming back in late July for another great time!!! By golly I love this place!!!
Fun place for a canoe trip on the Pigeon River. They rent canoes and kayaks and bus you out to the drop off point. The best part for me is that the river takes you right back to the campground and they do all the clean up of the boats and stuff so it's a nice experience for the family and parties alike.
Been coming for many years with a big group. Quiet hours are 11PM which seems early for being campground full of people trying to have a good time on a weekend. Quiet hours for the owners also mean, no talking and go to bed. Staff is super friendly though and the river is a good time
Had an absolutely fantastic dads & kids weekend here. Staff are awesome - approachable, knowledgeable, and clearly love what they do. Grounds are well kept with a very sweet little store that carries all the essentials. There's a new playground, a catch & release pond, and lots of open space to throw a football or frisbee so the kids always had something to do. Launch for the river was fast and efficient, and pick up was a immediate when we finished. All of the rental gear was in good shape. My only suggestion, and it's definitely not enough to drop a star, is to remodel and expand the bath house. With only two toilets and two showers, they get hammered on a daily basis and are really showing their age. Thank you Jess and team for an unforgettable trip!
Trading Post Outfitters is a little bit out of the way but on the recommendation of a friend we made the trek and it was definitely worth it. The staff is very helpful and all of the kayaks we had were in good working order. The facility is neat and orderly with clean bathrooms and lots of changing stalls. There are two kayaking options, we took the west section which leads away from the Trading Post. We plan to come back and do the east section as well. The river itself is beautiful, with a good current and the water is very clear. We saw lots of fish in it and a couple of otters as well.
Really great folks here give you all the instruction you needed and got you set up with a kayak and a ride to the launch. They were very efficient and fairly priced.
We kayak here at least once a year and have done both “routes”. The River is beautiful and it’s not difficult to navigate. You do have to portage on each route though. Some are longer than others so ask about that. Piece of advice… keep your phone in the waterproof box!! The family who owns this place are really great. We love it. Make a reservation tho.
Kayaking was perfect! Our campsite was great. A very fun time.
My friends and I come here every single year for my birthday! This year we had 24 people in our group. We love it! The campground is peaceful and never overcrowded! All of the staff is so friendly they make you feel like family! From the receptionist to the bus driver to the security to the people that help load and unload you from the water, they are all amazing! Always a great time at the trading post!
