Make time for these
Running since 2018, this is Michigan's only floating pedal bar: two 16-passenger, pedal-powered boats launching from next to the St. Jean Public Boat Launch onto the Detroit River. You bring your own food and drinks aboard, with a captain and first mate running the boat. It's booked for birthdays, bachelorette parties, family gatherings and corporate outings, and it's billed as all-ages.
