The Best ones turn right.
We're based in Cedarville, Michigan, in a part of the UP that doesn't get the postcard attention — which, depending on how you feel about crowds, is exactly the point. The Les Cheneaux Islands (lay shh-know) are 36 islands of varying sizes tucked along the northern shore of Lake Huron, just 30 minutes and two right turns from the Mackinac Bridge.

Guided kayaking ecotours.
Small groups, friendly guides, and some of the most extraordinary water in the Great Lakes — two-hour paddles, half-day trips, sunset tours, and a 3-night women's-only adventure that people come back from themselves again. You'll leave knowing the difference between a merganser and a loon, why the water is so impossibly clear, and probably a few things about the people you paddled with.
Hikers and birders, we've got options for you too.

Provisioning for micro adventures
& curious minds
We're the kind of shop worth ducking into even if you thought you didn't need anything. We've curated a thoughtful, tested selection of gear that gets you outdoors and keeps you there more comfortably — plus books, field guides, and other interesting finds (often small makers or women-led). Happy to share local trail, preserve, and water info too.​​
A few hours playing outside with the right people
in the right place does something to you.
Something good.
