Review of Northwoods

I have been using Piragis as my primary outfitter for two years now. Or group switched because they have great prices, their equipment is in great condition, their staff is very knowledgeable (and helpful).

I called them to discuss permits, dates, and equipment. By the end of my call they had the permits and equipment reserved and I had a confirmation email on my inbox. When our group arrived they helped us put the canoes on the roof and made sure we had all the right gear, knew what we were doing and reiterated the importance of respecting the BWCA lands

When we got back into town they were ready. Our gear was unloaded quickly and we were able to get a hot shower for only a few dollars. They even provided a clean towel and soap.

I would honestly recommend this place to anyone who stops in Ely!
