The City of Ann Arbor has two fully operational canoe liveries to serve the public: Gallup Park and Argo Park Canoe Liveries. It is important to note that while both liveries are managed by the City of Ann Arbor Department of Parks and Recreation, they are two different facilities and are operated semi-independently. This means that each livery offers different programs, activities, and rental options. To avoid any confusion, we ask that you explore the links below and on the far left of the page to better understand what each livery has to offer.
At Gallup Park and Argo Park Canoe Liveries, we offer river trips, pond paddles and outdoor activities for all to enjoy. Both liveries are located in Ann Arbor, Michigan along the beautiful Huron River.
- River trips each with their own fees and departure locations.
- Both liveries offer an assortment of watercraft rentals including canoes, kayaks (single and double), rowboats, and pedal boats (Gallup only).
There are also a number of programs and activities at Gallup Park and Argo Park (Calendar of Events).
- These programs include River Day Camps,
- Preschool programs, nature activities, full moon paddles, boat auctions, instructions, and much more.
Testimonials:
"I had the pleasure of taking the argo to gallup river trip last weekend with my family. The staff was helpful and accommodating, the equipment was in excellent condition, and the overall experience was something I'll remember fondly for years. Thank you to your staff for putting together such a wonderful opportunity for local residents to enjoy!"
