Weather permitting (winds less than 10mph), we are flying our balloons almost every day. The weather has been good and the Springtime is the best time of the year to fly in a balloon. The winds are light and temperature is cool. We provide sunrise and sunset flights. We would like to invite you to join us and our family in the wonderful sport of hot air ballooning. Michigan is one of the most interesting places in country to see from the air and we know that you will have a great experience with memories that will last a lifetime. Please take your time to roam around our web site and feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Reservations require a 50% deposit and the balance will be due at the launch field. Flying Season: April 2010 - Oct 31, 2010. Gift Certificates are required to be paid in full when they are issued. Gift certificates purchased after July 1st. will expire on October 1, 2007. If the weather does not permit a safe flight when you are scheduled to fly, we will reschedule it. We will make every effort to schedule a date that works best for your adventure.

We are not like every other
"Hot Air Balloon Company".

We are a family owned and operated business and we have been in the balloon business for more than 30 years with no accidents and are fully insured. We provide a very romantic, exciting balloon adventure in a modern balloon carrying 2-4 people. When you fly with us you will feel like you are a member of our family, not like you are another passenger in a balloon with as many as a dozen people as you would be in a crowed elevator.

What people are saying about our balloons,

Subject: 6/22/2009 Balloon Ride

Just wanted to say thank you so much for my Mom's balloon ride yesterday!
It was fabulous!!!! Everything about the experience was awesome.

Subject: 8/31/08 Balloon Ride

A big thank you to Joe, Pat and Marty for Saturday nights Balloon ride. My Mom Barb loved it! I enjoyed it as well, and appreciate the hard work of setting up and tearing down done by Joe and Pat. The only thing that could have made the flight better was if the trees were in full Fall color.
My best picture of the night was of Marty's Balloon over this house, with the reflection in the lake. We had a very nice time, and just wanted to say thank you for all the work you do to make our once in a life time dreams to come true.

Best Regards: Paul Thompson


August 2008

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Gauthier,

I want to sincerely Thank You for being so kind to my son, Andy. Words cannot express how thrilled he is to know you.

He has been an admirer of the Hot Air Balloon Festival, keeping his eyes to the sky for the entire event every year. He, of course is especially drawn to the "Andy" balloon.

This year he wanted to follow the Andy Balloon and I tried to talk him out of it. Not wanting to bother you, I said "let's look at another balloon Andy". but he stayed firm. I am glad that I let him because he was so thrilled that you remembered him and let him help.

Andy is a 'builder' at heart, so I know that reading about you building an airplane in your basement makes you 'totally awesome' in his eyes. I always say that Andy has to build or create something every single day to be the happiest.

We just can't thank you enough!

Sincerely,

Susan Blackburn and Andy


What an exiting time we had seeing first hand your balloon landing. As we saw you go over the house and realized you would be landing near by we felt like little kids again. Thanks for a great start in the day.

Here are the pictures I took that morning.
