Absolutely
everything
is
provided--kayaks,
safety gear
(including
GPS and cell
phone),
customized
maps and
transportation
of
everything
from
point-to-point.
Cars will be
spotted
where they
are needed,
kayaks will
be put in
and taken
out, your
luggage will
be
transported
from inn to
inn. We even
provide a
disposable
camera each
day, and an
"I Paddled
the Chain"
souvenir
T-shirt at
the end of
your voyage.
Torch and
Elk lakes
are the most
famous of
the Chain of
Lakes. But
the chain is
actually
made up of
14 lakes,
each flowing
into the
next until
the water
rushes over
the dam and
the
waterfalls
in Elk
Rapids and
into Lake
Michigan.
The Camelot
Inn's
"Paddle the
Chain Kayak
Voyage"
takes you on
the entire
navigable
portion of
the
chain--12
lakes and
their
connecting
rivers.
We have
planned this
route to
allow you to
cover a lot
of water,
but at a
leisurely
pace. Fine
dining and
luxury
accommodations
along the
way make
this a
civilized
adventure.
You'll
paddle
through
residential
neighborhoods
and nature
preserves,
past beaver
dams and
eagles'
nests.
Rental
kayaks are
included in
the package
price, but
bring your
own and get
a
corresponding
reduction in
the package
price.
The
entire
voyage is on
flat water
or gentle
current. But
with some
open water
paddling and
a few tricky
culverts,
it's not
recommended
for
first-time
kayakers.
All
accommodations
are
non-smoking
rooms with
either one
queen or one
king bed. No
children; no
pets.
Pricing is
per couple,
and assumes
two people
per room.
Group size
is limited
to six.
Voyage
begins with
a light day
of paddling
on
Wednesday.
The final
day of
paddling is
Saturday,
with a
Sunday
morning
departure.
