It's a boat! It's a bar!
It's a...bike boat?
Charlevoix Cycle Pub gives you the unique opportunity to throw your own private party right on the water in our one of a kind party barge. We are the first "Cycleboat" in the northern part of the state - a 14 passenger pedal powered charter boat! You've seen the bar bikes and now we're bringing it to the water!
Find your seat at the bar, grab a drink (or two) and start peddling around Lake Charlevoix in beautiful Charlevoix, Michigan. You pedal, a captain steers, and when you’re tired turn on the motor!
Watch video. Get excited. Book tour.

Things To Do In CHARLEVOIX
Small Town. Big Party.
Obviously, a town that has a floating peddle pub is going to know how to have a good time. There’s so much this little town has to offer before, during and after your Cycleboat ride. Here are just a few...
JOHN CROSS FISH MARKET
When traveling through Northern Michigan, you will likely experience a wide variety of freshly caught fish at area local restaurants. If you ask where they get their fresh fish, there’s a good chance they’ll say John Cross Fisheries, and for good reason. This long-standing staple has been serving the Charlevoix community for over seventy years. Catching up to 10,000 pounds of fresh fish daily, it’s safe to say, “they know their fish.”
The catch can vary daily, but you’ll find: salmon, walleye, whitefish, trout, and perch among other seasonal fish. They also carry non-native seafood varieties that are frequently brought in. Located just a few blocks from downtown Charlevoix on Belvedere Ave on the shores of the south side of Round Lake, John Cross Fisheries is a hidden gem.
