Family Canoe Camping
Take your kids canoeing and camping! You can do it and we know the kids can do it! We offer these trips because we have discovered that families find it pretty tough to get everything together for an outdoor vacation. With our help you and your children can discover all that wonders of nature while we take care that your canoe and camping needs are met. We know what kids are willing to do and what they are not so willing to do. For example, we establish camp once on these trips, kids don’t like to make camp every night and break camp every morning. Parents really like that we prepare, cook, and clean-up all the meals.

This is a flatwater lake trip on one of several beautiful Maine lakes. Trip includes all the canoeing equipment; all camp gear; all cooking gear; and all the food. All you need to bring is sleeping bags and sleeping pads, and personal gear. The meals we prepare for families have children in mind, but still maintain our outdoor gourmet standards. Pancakes, bulls-eyes, and French toast for breakfast, cold cut sandwiches and chili with corn bread for lunches, and Dutch oven pizzas, steak, and grilled chicken for dinners. And of course some-mores, brownies and even ice cream for desserts.
