We have a kayak and canoe livery called Portage River Paddling Company. We are nestled on 94 acres on the Portage River. You will be camping
in the back of our property along the Portage River. You will be just a 5 minute walk from renting kayaks, canoes, stand-up paddle boards, gem mining, axe throwing, cornhole, giant Jenga, goats, Gizmo the 160 pound Sulcata Tortoise, Jasper the iguana and more!
Spacious private property and the sites are excellent! The host was kind, knowledgeable, timely, and caring. We experienced some bad weather overnight and Bryan came by to check on us in the morning to make sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to staying here next time we’re in the area!
I would highly recommend this beautiful site to any campers looking for a great weekend under the stars, camping and plenty of activities, such as kayaking, Paddle boarding, gem mining and a lot more. Also they had the cutest animals on site goats and turtle ! Definitely will be back if weather permits soon ! Bryan and Amanda thank you so much for letting us stay and helping us during our stay.
We enjoyed staying at this site, even though I totally overlooked it being by train tracks!! It still gave us safari feels tho! I was expecting a lion or giraffe to come out of the bushes at any moment lol!! The trains do come fairly often! The horn is the worse part lol but it didn’t ruin the vibe at all! We just needed a night away from the city! I would absolutely stay again to explore more of the area!
