I rented a canoe from Piragis for 3 days this week. As a first time visitor to the BWCA and a first time canoe-er, the experience/process could not have been better. I paid for the canoe in advance and when I showed up, the staff walked me through how to strap the canoe to the top of my car, which way the oar should face when paddling, and which lakes would be best for day trips. They also answered a lot of other "first timer" questions and were patient throughout the entire process. Their store is filled to the brim with anything you could possibly need and if you outfit with them, you receive 10% of all merchandise purchased in store. I will definitely use them on my next trip and highly recommend! A professional team of passionate folks.
