We’re not judging!

One of the beauties of canoe camping is getting to bring a few extra luxuries . . . like a princess in the pea level of Thermarests. While this amount of T-rests might be a little excessive, there’s no shame in bringing a few creature comforts.

Late August vibes. Blooms and empty racks.

Sometimes people are a little confused by what we do here at Tuscarora, so we made this video to clarify things. 😉

We had ample time on our hands due to the closure, so we were able to push forward an idea that we’ve been thinking about for some time now.... an online grocery store!!!

We launched our Jotform just a few weeks ago and have an array of food options for you to pick and choose from. We wanted a process that is easy to click and use, and makes shopping for your camp food stress free . . . think of it as your Boundary Waters Instacart! 

Need just a couple food items for your pack or want more backpacking meal options? We got you covered! Just submit your order at least 7 days before your arrival, and we will have everything packed and waiting for you when you come.  

Check it out under the camping menu on our website.
