Crystal River Outfitters has been outfitting adventurers on the Leelanau Peninsula for over two decades, earning a reputation as the go-to source for genuine outdoor expertise. The family-run business started when local fishing guide Tom Kowalski decided to share his deep knowledge of northern Michigan's pristine waterways. Today, his team equips everyone from first-time kayakers to seasoned anglers with quality gear and insider knowledge about the Crystal River's hidden pools and the peninsula's most rewarding trails. Their weathered wooden shop tells stories of countless adventures launched from these shores.
