With a business like Tip-A-Thumb Canoe and Kayak Rental, which is located right off of Port Austin Road, they can only be in business during the spring and summer months. The off season (fall and winter) really causes a damper and causes them to have to make up for profit lost during the spring and summer months. There are many businesses that reside lakeside that have this same problem, it is often a common thread. Not many people go to the great lakes during the winter or even the fall perhaps. That is why it is crucial that we help these businesses out in the summer by telling others about them and also by visiting them frequently.
Tip-A-Thumb Canoe and Kayak Rental is a family owned operation that has always had the same people working at it, well ever since I can remember, these employees show a dedication and happiness for their job. This company is helping to show awareness to the Great Lakes and also what we put into our lakes. This company prohibits people from taking the canoes and kayaks onto the Lake and also prohibits them from leaving any trash behind.
