    Staff were professional and polite. The trip was uneventful. Our luggage made it safely both ways…read moreincluding the two bikes our spouses brought. Seating is a bit crowded, and priority seating for a large special group meant that none of our group of four could sit together.

    They offer two different types of parking here, and they both cost money. The regular parking costs…read moreless, but you need to take a shuttle to the parking lot, which is off site. The premium parking costs more but it's near the dock. So you choose! We chose the regular parking, but we almost missed getting on the ferry because it took a while to get to the parking and back. Ferries leave every hour, usually, so we would have had to wait an hour. So, four stars because of the parking situation. It's kind of a bummer, but they got you by the cojones because where else are you going to park if you want to catch the ferry to Mackinac Island? The rest of the ferry experience was great. The people expertly tag and handle luggage, and the ride is smooth. You can sit on the deck and take in the view, but keep in mind that it's very windy and can get cold, even during the summer months. Or you can sit below deck where it's climate controlled. You can still get a great view below deck. The trip from the mainland to Mackinac Island (and vice versa) takes about 17 minutes, and they depart right on time. Don't be late, or you'll have to catch the next ferry.

    So somewhere between 3-4 in terms of overall experience…read more They had ferries run frequently which was great, the boats were reasonable, plenty of seating, staff was helpful and nice, and the ride wasn't too long. Some of the issues - pricing is quite high - $39 per ticket which is spicy for round trip and the worst part is that you have to pay 40$! for parking. That is not ok at all in any capacity to pay $40 for parking when you are already paying close to $40 for a ferry ticket. Why on earth would parking be so pricey?!?!?!?!? Additionally while there were quite a few ferries going back and forth, some of them, particularly the last one didn't leave at the time that was present on the schedule which is a major no no particularly for out of town tourists - the schedule said 8pm, but the ferry actually. leaves at 7:30pm officially and left early at around 7:25pm or so!! Which if we had actually been "on time" we would have been left in the cold of Mackinaw island. Ferries need to leave at the time they say they will leave - leaving earlier is not ok!!! That and the cost is probably my biggest frustration and negative on this place. Don't nickel and dime your customers, and leave not early not late - at the scheduled time.

    We had a great experience on the ferry to Mackinac Island, so I was surprised to see such mixed…read morereviews on here. We booked our tickets in advance and boarded the first ferry to the island around 9 am. Be sure to arrive early, as there was a long line of people waiting to board the boat. You can choose between inside seating or sitting at the top of the boat - totally up to your personal preference! The ferry ride was smooth, comfortable, and took around 25 minutes. We had no problem catching a ferry back from the island, but be sure to give yourself enough time to queue in line before the ferry is set to depart, as lines do form.
