If you're coming from Houghton it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. The nature scenery of Michigan and the playfulness of the water have people coming here. This is a somewhat short section so better bring some good walking shoes. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Michigan tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so better not forget that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away
from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good
rivers. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near. This stretch of Tioga River in Michigan is 2.2 miles long and is a class II-IV section of whitewater according to American Whitewater.
