Kayak the Peshtigo River on a Sit-On-Top Rental

Guides like Michael, Jason, Dillon, and Josh consistently steal the show here, bringing a rare mix of humor, patience, and genuine expertise on the water. First-timers make up a big portion of the crowd, and the guides clearly know how to ease nerves while still delivering an exciting experience. The Menominee and Peshtigo rivers each offer something different, with rapids ranging from beginner-friendly runs up to Class 4 and 5 for those craving a real challenge. Beyond the rafting, the campground and on-site tavern add a lot to the overall experience. Reviewers rave about the Friday Fish Fry, friendly bar staff, and an atmosphere that keeps people coming back year after year. One guest even mentioned the owner personally taking a small group down the river on a whim, which says a lot about the culture of this place. Pack bug spray if you're visiting in warmer months, but otherwise this is a well-rounded destination worth putting on your radar.
