I always go in at Sawbill, so don't know the other areas very well. But some friends are going in at 12 Little Vermilion Lake, and are looking for a good place nearby to rent canoes. They may need some other gear, but not sure. They're inexperienced, by and large, so a place that could help them out a bit would be good. Thanks.

Call Zup's to see what they offer?

mntentman, on the left part way down is a tab for outfitters/guides. It shows the outfitters that support this site according to the area served. Reports from other members and my own experience, they all are top notch in service. Some of us have our favorites but you will very seldom here a complaint.
I would pick a couple and check out their web sites then give them a call or email to discuss what you are wanting. I am sure you will be pleased.

Would recommend Zups on Lac La Croix for the west part of BWCA / Quetico. Call (807)485-2492.

I believe going to Zup's would require a customs visit.

Yes it would, you can't go to Zup's without going to Customs. But you might be able to get canoes transported to the U.S. side. Not sure, you'd have to call Mark or Kathy Zup at (807) 485-2492.

We used Anderson Canoe Outfitters when we entered through Little Vermillion.

Used Anderson Outfitters on Crane Lake in 2012. It was a good experience and we'll be using their services again in August.
