Our tranquil, scenic slice of Northern Michigan is home to countless outdoor activities in the springtime, including Indian River kayaking, rafting, canoeing, golfing, fishing, and so much more! Michiganders know to pack a wide variety of clothes for a spring adventure because you never whether Mother Nature will grant you with a 70 degree April afternoon or undeniably pretty springtime snowfall. Regardless of the weather, you’re bound to have the time of your life here in Indian River during your well-deserved springtime escape with Big Bear Adventures.

 

River Rafting in Michigan

Many of our guests are genuinely surprised to learn that Big Bear Adventures offers year-round river rafting trips – there’s never an off-season for thrill-seekers here in Northern Michigan! Spring is a popular season for river rafting because everyone is aching to get a hefty dose of adventure under the refreshingly-warm sun. You won't find prices as low as ours anywhere else in the country. Our river rafting trips are geared toward all audiences – from children to advanced rafters. Many visitors combine a rafting trip with several other adventure activities, such as Indian River kayaking!

 

Kayaking expeditions, regardless of which body of water you choose, are equally exciting, relaxing, and refreshing. We highly recommend the well-balanced, five-hour Sturgeon River kayaking trip because it provides speedy challenges, lazy yet scenic stretches, and everything in-between! You can also embark on tandem kayaking and canoeing trips on the Sturgeon River, which is unquestionably challenging as a lot of teamwork is needed, but we know that you have it in you! The narrow, winding Sturgeon River is a fantastic challenge even for experienced paddlers.

 

“The Triple Play”

For those of you who’re visiting Indian River with a van full of kids, we recommend spending an afternoon at the Family Fun Center. Perfect for most ages, the Family Fun Center has an 18-hole mini golf course, amusing bumper boats, and an exhilarating ropes course. You can experience all three attractions for one low price (starting at just $17 per person). The kid-safe ropes course has 11 different elements, all of which provide a unique challenge worth accepting.
