Canoe or Kayak the AuSable River

Bring your own canoe or kayak or rent one from Oscoda Canoe Rental in Oscoda. Take the Whirlpool starting point kayak trip, a six-mile route that will take about two hours. Bring your camera to capture some stunning photos of nature and wildlife from a point of view that can’t get any better. Expect to catch sight of eagles (even a bald eagle!), blue herons, beavers, bobcats, swans, and more.
