I purchased a kayaking excursion voucher through Uncle Ducky's / Paddling Michigan during a holiday…read morepromotion and later traveled from out of town specifically for this experience, spending additional money on lodging, gas, food, and travel expenses in order to participate. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disorganized and unprofessional from the moment I arrived. The building was locked, no guide or management staff were present, there was no organized check-in process, and there was absolutely no communication regarding what was happening. Multiple guests were left outside confused and attempting to determine whether the tour was even operating. Company-associated staff eventually arrived but provided no meaningful information until directly prompted. At that point, they stated they were only shuttle drivers and that they had to "figure out what was going on" after the scheduled rendezvous time had already passed. At no point within the first 20 minutes of our rendezvous was there was any clear communication, leadership, organization, or professionalism demonstrated by the company. Considering they're responsible for guiding customers onto Lake Superior, I no longer felt comfortable or safe participating in the excursion and chose not to proceed with 10 minutes remaining until the a scheduled launch time. I attempted to resolve this directly via email since management wasn't present during working hours and present staff couldn't provide a direct way to contact management; however, they refused to issue a refund. The owner instead responded publicly to a review in a defensive manner while claiming an emergency situation had occurred. He even blamed my inability to adapt over his employees vague and unprofessional verbal responses and despite three shuttle drivers being present and not shuttling us to our launch. The issue is the complete lack of communication, organization, professionalism, and reasonable resolution afterward.

This is the one and only. Family business, very hands on and even answers the telephone. This is…read morethe only place that rents single kayaks, so when doing your research keep this in mind if you rather have a solo trip instead of tandem riding. The tour was amazing, they are very knowledgeable and make the trip fun. The prices are very reasonable, please ask, they can accommodate group, children, and senior discounts. All safety gear, and transportation to and from launch site are included. This is a lifetime opportunity, these groups are more intimate, our group consisted of seven boats. ENJOY

I reserved my experience on their website and received a personal confirmation from Raya via text message in less than 15 minutes. Raya answered all my questions in advance of the event quickly and with great detail. Yooper Yachts was the only company I found that allowed for single kayaks, as I was booking alone and didn't want to be paired with a stranger. My tour was run by Rick and Bob (father/son team) were super friendly and helpful. My group was 7 total kayakers (two tandem kayaks and three singles). We all met at the meet point, and after a short drive and set of instructions, we were in the water. The tour was fantastic. Rick provided a personal touch...learning everyone's names and getting to know them and providing interesting stories about the rock formations and area insights. Rick and Bob could not be nicer and more genuine. They gave us the freedom to roam and explore a bit on our own but were always close by if we needed them. They provided all of the required equipment, which was in great shape. They also had Dramamine available if we needed it. Honestly this is the best experience I could have hoped for in a tour of Pictured Rocks. You can really count on Yooper Yachts, they are very dependable and are a fun outfit!

Our tour was cancelled the night before. Which would have been understandable "due to weather" but…read moreconsidering I checked today and they're still booking tours for today, that's quite unnerving. The group text informing me of this cancellation was me and one other kayaker, so I assume they didn't want to waste their time on such a small group. Save your money and go elsewhere. I'll update again if my refund is ever issued. Updated to add refund was issued.

I called Skip's and spoke to Heidi, and she said they were very busy but would do their best to get us on the road. After Charlie towed us to Skips (and as a former mechanic was able to lead us to the alternator), Skips worked it in, managed to find an alternator for a 2011 Honda and fixed it so that we got back on the road by 5:30. I was considering what kind of disaster we were headed for but Skips saved us a lot of trouble so we could continue on our trip. I would use them all the time if they were in my hometown.

Camping at the Tourist Campground. After our tour, we came out to go back to camp and discovered a flat on one of the rear duel wheels. Went up the road and found Skips. Pulled in, explained our issues, had a spare and needed it changed. They had other work, but two of their guys immediately came out, accessed the job and went right to work switching tires, tough job on a sprinter. 45 minutes later at a very fair price, we were on our way.

Please keep in mind that Lake Superior is the coldest of the Great Lakes, so once the sun sets it gets cold! There is an option to be on the bottom deck, which is enclosed. Part of the middle deck also has windows to shield the air. If you want to remain in the open air, you'll need a blanket and coat! Happy cruising. Also check out the store. They have many cool items for sale.
