CHARITY ISLAND DINNER CRUISES

Dinner Cruises to Charity Island aboard the 50 ft. Passenger Ferryboat "Northstar" are running Fridays and Saturdays through Labor Day weekend, and for the first two weekends in October.

Dinner Cruise tickets may be purchased at Northport Travel Center in Au Gres, or Brown's Landing in Tawas.  The cruise will depart from NorthPort Marina at 1500 hours (3pm) for the 75 minute trip to Charity Island.  Guests should arrive at least 30 minutes prior to departure.  Ice coolers are available aboard the vessel for guests who choose to bring beverages for the crossing.     

Once the "Northstar" is moored in the Charity Island Harbor, passengers will take a scenic stroll along a forested path to the LightKeeper's House.  Comfortable footwear is strongly advised.  

Once guests arrive at the Lightkeeper's home, guests will be greeted with a buffet style dinner.  The return trip will be timed to coincide with the sunset aboard the "Northstar" enroute back to Au Gres.

Based upon groups of twelve (12) or more, you may enjoy this unique dining adventure for only *$65.00 per person.  Group size is limited to a maximum of 49 guests.  Reservations are strongly suggested. 

*Prices subject to change.

Imagine savoring a meal of Lake Perch as you look over the water.  Chances are you will observe cargo ships and freighters as they make their way to distant ports.  As a warm breeze brushes past you, for a moment you are transported back in time.  You can envision the watchful eyes of Lightkeepers from years past, and know that this has been a dining experience!

Smaller groups may be booked at any time.  Please call for pricing and availability.
