For a true Northern Michigan adventure, load up a canoe or kayak and spend the day on the Pine River or Big Manistee River. Both rivers wind through stunning forested landscapes, offering peaceful floats and scenic views that reward paddlers of every skill level. Local liveries provide rentals, shuttle services, and guided float trips, so guests don't need to bring their own equipment.

It's one of those experiences that guests remember long after the trip is over, and one of the best reasons to stay a little longer at Cadillac KOA Holiday.
