We began our story over 31 years ago when our founder opened the very first outfitter location on the Grand River. Starting with only 8 canoes and a passion for sharing his knowledge with others, Canoeing the Grand was born.
That original vision has been expanded to include Kayaks and River Tubes. We continue the tradition of providing safe family adventures with pride and our promise of excellent customer service.
We are a team of people devoted to introducing our customers to the peace and simple joy of our beautiful Grand River, to experience the exquisite feel and sound of a paddle cutting through its waters while brokering the opportunity to reconnect with nature, themselves and each other.
Our team consists of passionate paddlers, outdoor enthusiasts and customer service experts dedicated to sharing their skills and love of the outdoors with both novice and expert paddlers.
We are committed to helping our customers find the perfect trip and the right vessel while providing the knowledge they need to enjoy a fun, safe trip on the river.
