Paddles & Pedals is located in beautiful Downtown Bellaire and helps people explore Northern Michigan's beautiful scenery. They provide equipment for kayaking on lazy rivers and lakes, paddle boarding, and biking on trails, including very cool E-bikes for trail riding. They offer rentals such as tandem kayaks and stand-up paddle boards, with great equipment that performs as promised. The staff is knowledgeable, wonderful, incredible, and very helpful, providing quick and detailed walkthroughs and helping to plan your own adventure. They are also accommodating and gracious with pickup, drop-off, and late returns. The store itself is amazing, outfitting customers with clothing and gear from favorite brands for activities like hiking and camping. Customers highlight the beautiful and incredible surroundings for paddling on places like the Intermediate River, Intermediate Lake, Clam Lake, and the Grass River. While highly recommended, some note that rental bike seats can be very hard and advise on brake use for safety. Overall, it is a great company with superb service.
Great time kayaking leisurely on the Intermediate River and Intermediate Lake. Great equipment. Wonderful staff. Beautiful surroundings.
