Service runs every half hour unlike the Arnold which is every hour. They have plenty of free day parking. If you buy your tickets online they are the best deal for the ferry/carriage package.

Awesome ride and views to the island! Make sure to catch one that takes you under the bridge! Don't forget to check for discounts online and with coupons from local stores.

$25 roundtrip tickets at dock. Don't forget to get the coupons for a discount on bike rental on the island + 15% at sanders fudge shop :)Also nice small cafe at Mack city dock.

Have been going on Labor Day weekend for a decade now and have always used Sheplers. Attentive and courteous staff, reasonable wait times, always crowded!

The employees are awesome. My husband lost his wedding band at the beach and the staff said they would help look. I expected them to do nothing, to me this is valuable service. Thank you again Shepler

A very cool ferry ride. You get to go into both Lake Michigan and Lake Huron.

the ride was good enough. the schedule is a bit confusing at first. they only run often on weekends during certain months. otherwise, it's on the hour.

Its a tourist town, its a boat shuttle to Mackinaw Island, There are other companys that do the same. All are similar priced.. way to high. Vacation = lots of money. enjoy..

Sign up for a chance to win a free $100 gas card. There's a winner every day in August! Just look for the registration box at the ticket office. Ends August 31.

Make sure you are on time, and don't pack your ticket in your luggage on the return.

We were charged twice, six tickets when we only had three people. They said there was nothing they could do to refund our money. Thx schleppers

These flies are real nasty however valet is actually not bad! In fact they have been nothing but helpful and nice.

In May the mayflies are terrible. Valet service is really sketchy. w/o much space to explain, they returned my auto with minor prob and still not sure how it happened.
