wolfe islander iii

Nothing much to do in the island during winter. There's only ferry available to Wolfe Island in winter and it's free! Services are frequent - departs hourly from Kingston, near the City Hall.

Just take a trip over to Wolfe Island and back on the same ferry. Great way to spend an hour in Kingson and a great water view of the City. Just don't tell the government how much you enjoyed it or they'll start charging a fee!!!!

This is a great free way to view Kingston's waterfront, Old Fort Henry, RMC, the Martello Towers and more. Board the ferry at the docks on Ontario street near The Tragically Hip Way just past the Tim Horton's. If you are just visiting the other side then park your car and walk on. When you get to the other side there are a number of spots to grab a coffee, bite to eat or ice cream and wait the hour for the next boat then ride back for nothing, or take some time and explore the village of Marysville on Wolfe Island.

The staff were so nice!. They let our kids sit in the wheel room and ask tonnes of questions. The waiting rooms were clean.the bathrooms were clean. Very friendly.i will be back.

If you've got some free time in Kingston, hop on the Wolfe Islander III ferry. It's a free ride that drops you off in the little village on the island where you can have a nice walk around (or drive if you bring your car along). There are a couple of places for a bite or a drink and then it's an easy trip back.

For the best view of Kingston and it's famous attractions grab a front row seat on the Wolfe Island Ferry. Sit back, cool off, and relax. Located at the bottom of Queen Street in downtown, you can drive, bike, or walk on, it's free and will cruise by the Royal Military College, Old Fort Henry and Kingston City Hall. You'll pass by sailors from the Kingston Yacht Club and lots of Murney Towers until you see the wind turbines on Wolfe Island. It doesn't take very long, maybe 20 minutes. Once there, you can get off and grab a beer and lunch at the island grill, drive around to beaches and golf, cross to the south side and take a short ferry ride to Cape Vincent in the U.S. Or just stay on the boat for the return trip - just remember to change sides so you experience a different view. Check the schedule for departures and enjoy - great for all ages!

Thank you Canada for the ferry boat service to and from Wolfe Island and Kingston. The ferry must handle 50+ cars and unlimited pedal and foot passengers. Beautiful view into Kingston of a great waterfront and into Wolfe Island of multiple wind towers.

We took our grandkids on the Wolfe Islaner 111 on our way back to Cobourg from Lake Placid. They loved it. ( ages 12, 8, and 6). It's free, fun, and not too long. We toured the island, had supper at the General Wolfe restaurant, then caught the ferry back to Kingston and continued home.

The ferry to Kingston was a positive experience. It appeared to hold a lot of vehicles (including big trucks). It was fast to Wolfe Island and run efficiently at both loading areas.

Took the ferry out to Wolfe Island for the experience and would definitly recommend if you have some time to kill. You can tell it's more of a summer experience, although watching the ferry break through all the ice on the waterway is pretty interesting! Ferry was right on schedule - it was our first time riding one and didn't know what to expect exactly. Very smooth ride. Would recommend bringing your car - as the winter ferry drops off a ways away from the nearest populated area. Drove around Wolfe Island to check out the different windmills and wild life - passed a pack of 16 deer on the way back - pretty cool experience!

The family loves taking this ferry across to Wolfe Island - and it's free. We try to take this ferry whenever we are in Kingston. We love being on the water so this is excellent for us. We love driving around Wolfe Island and going to the beach. I like taking photos from the ferry.

Offers terrific views of Kingston's waterfront. Restrooms on board. You can get out of your car and sit upstairs, or stand and watch the bow wave from the deck. Free. Try to avoid "rush" hour when it's full of commuters to & from the Island.

It's free of charge, Marysville is quaint, and Wolfe Island is great to explore. Why not take a few hours and see what it's like over on the island? Get up close to the windmills, see tons of wildlife, and find yourself at the General Wolfe ripping a brew.

You can take the Wolf Islander over to Wolf Island and spend the day, ok maybe 1/2 is more realistic. Besides a few shops, restaurants and the wind turbines there is not alot to do. It is also a fun way to get from and to the US instead of taking the Thousand Island Bridge East of Kingston or the Rainbow bridge down by buffalo.

According to our kids the Wolfe Islander is the best part of Kingston. They are fascinated with the ferry and take rides daily. Offers great service over to the island.
