Whether you're chasing quiet mornings on the lake or paddling down a winding river, Mel’s Trading Post has the gear to get you on the water. We carry paddles, life vests, dry bags, and other essentials to outfit your next canoe or kayak trip.

As a locally owned shop rooted in the Northwoods, we know what works on our lakes and streams, and we’d love to share that knowledge with you. While some gear is listed online, our full paddling selection is available in-store. Swing by, ask questions, and get ready to have a great time out in the sun.
