MAC'S is a family-owned and operated canoe livery and guide service. We have over 40 years combined professional experience. We are familiar with the various waterways and forests of the Adirondacks, including the St. Regis Canoe Area, Raquette River and Saranac Lake Wild Forest. We can lead on guided trips or assist you in planning your own. Your vacation is our business!

MAC's rents and sells new and used Wenonah Royalex and Kevlar Wenonah Canoes and is the Adirondack dealer for GRB Newman Design canoes.We carry local maps, guidebooks, paddles, PFDs, flashlights, batteries and other last minute items.

In 2005, MAC's established the Adirondack Watershed Alliance (AWA) to coordinate the Adirondack Canoe & Kayak race series.

Our base is in a great location for paddlers. MAC'S is at the edge of the St. Regis Canoe Wilderness in Lake Clear, near the NYS Fish Hatchery. We are easy to find on Rte 30. Numerous paddling options are just moments away.
· The "Canoe Wilderness" is our backyard.
· Long or short loops pond hopping through the Wild Forest.
· See "Great Camps" from a canoe by paddling a seven-mile loop.
· The Saranac Lake Chain starting at Upper Saranac is within 2 miles.
