Introduction

Hi, I’m Mike McGrath, CEO and founder of Up-A-Creek Paddle Company.

Handcrafted one at a time, these artisan paddles will pull your canoe smoothly through the water. Light weight and durable, these crafted paddles are perfect for paddling or using as decor in your home, lake house, or cabin. Evoking nostalgic memories of simpler times. They make a great gift for that hard to shop for person on your list.

Take a look at our paddle designs or personalize a paddle to your tastes. We will work with you to personalize your paddle with a name logo or special design.

I grew up in the Finger Lakes area of central New York, surrounded by crystal clear waters and towering forests. My earliest memories were paddling a canoe on Skaneateles Lake and camping in the Adirondacks. My love for the outdoors started early.

Please take a few minutes to check out our selections.  Feel free to contact me with your ideas or questions. I’d love to hear from you.
