Had a wonderful time. Owners were very friendly same with the employees. Great trip on the river. Usually start in Mio but really enjoyed this part of the river. Fewer people and much more quiet. Breakfast was good and enjoyed having Sadie the dog around also. Thank you cousin Bill Schultz for the invitation to join all of you this year. Hope to come back next year. 

Business response:

Thank you for the review. You are a great addition to the Schultz group! We look forward to their visit every year.

Right off the bat, I was pleased with Borchers because of their informative website, listing all the kinds of kayaks available (so I knew ahead of time they were good quality kayaks), detailed descriptions of the tours, including a map, time needed, and mileage, not to mention the affordable prices. We rented a tandem kayak, which was comfortable and in good shape, and had a map installed right in it. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, and made sure we were well - informed of all landmarks and how to contact the... read more

There is a reason we choose Borchers to rent canoes for our guests, we have our own and can launch ours there for a $10 fee, which include them bringing us and canoes back. Otherwise we need two vehicles to canoe with them. This was worth it to us. The staff was very friendly. 

Business response:

Thank you for your comments. We appreciate that you value our launch/retrieval service.
