Lady of the Lake provides year-round transportation to the Lodge at Stehekin. Both ferries have morning departures and leave from the town of Chelan.
The Lady II transports you in style and takes a leisurely 4-hour journey. It can accommodate 285 passengers and offers a spacious deck for outdoor viewing of the beautiful picture postcard panorama.
The Lady Express can accommodate up to 130 passengers and offers a faster trip on the lake, making the cruise to Stehekin in 2.5 hours. The Lady Express may be a faster boat, but you can still enjoy the views and narration.
SunnyJo, a 32-passenger catamaran ferry, is the flagship of the Stehekin Ferry fleet. She travels from Stehekin to Fields Point Landing on the South Shore of Lake Chelan once per day, all year-round.
Heading up to Holden? Pre-arrange a stop at Lucerne Landing to head up to Holden or Prince Creek to tackle the famous Lakeshore Trail. We can also stop at most private or public docks along the way, just be sure to give us a call before you book your tickets.
Bus tours leave from Stehekin Landing twice daily and are narrated by a park ranger of the lower Stehekin Valley. Tour departures coincide with the arrival of Lady of the Lake passenger ferries.
