ℹ️ About the Episode: We went back and forth on whether taking the ferry across Lake Michigan was worth it. We've taken many ferries, and they usually save us quite a bit of time and fuel. In this case, the ferry did one better-it saved us from driving through Chicago. (If you've ever towed or driven an RV through Chicago, you know.) In this episode, we make our way to Sister Bay, Wisconsin, located in Door County. If you haven't visited Door County yet, it's worth considering as a summer destination. It's located on a peninsula on Lake Michigan's west side, north of Green Bay, and the water views are spectacular. A great time to visit is near Air Venture, which is one of the largest air shows in the country. Door County can also be paired with Michigan's Upper Peninsula (referred to as the UP "you pee") and Mackinac Island. There is lots to do in Door County. We enjoy exploring the farmers' markets, riding bikes, watching sunsets, and visiting Peninsula State Park. This time, we stayed at Dovetail Acres Campground, but there are many private and state park campgrounds to choose from.

8:00 Seeing Charlie running in circles made me so happy! I bet he was ready to get out of the camper after being cooped up for four hours!

That F-450 Super Duty scenery at the beginning was truly beautiful. Well worth the trip.

Marc and Trish, very cool episode! I wish I could have given you a few pointers and talked you into slowing it down. As a lifelong denizen of Wisconsin, a veteran of the SS Badger, and a major fan of Door County, I love what you covered in this video, but there is so much more! Most Wisconsinites would drop everything to tell a visitor what not to miss, and when it comes to crossing Lake Michigan on a ferry, landing in Manitowoc, and visiting Door County, especially Península State Park, there are so many interesting suggestions to make!!! Anyway, you could spend an entire season of your show here and never run out of content. Nonetheless, your content was cabr reason to say bloocrswl nty amazing! Can’t wait to see his this summer season

Best thing I ever did… take the ferry. Drove through Chicago once😳😳😳never again. The sail was so beautiful and saved frustration.

We took the badger “overnight” on our first cross country RV trip. There were only about 50 passengers on that crossing so my kids won every round of bingo while my husband slept. When the badger staff drove our RV onto the ferry, my two year old was so sad that “the man took away my RV trip”. But then when we got to WI she was able to stand on the deck of the ferry and watch it be driven off. She was jumping for joy at 3 AM that “the man brought back my RV trip!!” It was also fascinating to watch the big Cat construction equipment go on/off the ferry. We’ve done several cross-country trips and for some reason this still remains one of our family’s most talked about experiences.

@debyarger3084 18 часов назад

I so remember my experience on the SS Bager. It started out beautiful until the storm came. The waves were rough. We got to Wisconsin just in time ad I was feeling sick. Now we did this as a round trip just to say we did it,that we experienced the ride. A bus took us i to town where we stopped at a mom and pops restaurant for simething hot. We were wet and cold from getting off the boat. In a few hours we were back on the boat.for the four hour trip. It wasnt long that i found myself on the back deck hugging a popcorn container. Sick as a dog,mercy was shown and they gave us a room for me to lay down and thats were i stayed until we arrived back to Ludington! What an adventure,one I wont take again! Lol, I've spent my lifetime so far in Michigan, its been my home sense birth and although I love our travels else where,ya cant beat what Michigan has to offer!

Absolutely enjoyed this video, thanks for sharing the ferry experience. From Ohio, we headed West to Starved Rock Campground North Utica, IL and then North, We wanted to avoid Chicago as well. We have had several family reunions in Door County, the last one was a year ago. We stayed at Dovetail Acres this last trip too. We also met up with friends who were camping at Peninsula State Park and spent the day with them exploring the Park and surrounding area. So much to do there, Love the small fishing villages, looking forward to heading back when we can. Chances are if you searched for Dovetail Acres, you might have seen our video. Safe Travels & Happy Camping! Tony & Tina

@loreeschneider2855 2 дня назад

As a Ludington native, it's always fun to see our town and the Badger through the eyes of visitors. Loved the shots from the deck looking down at the dock and through the harbor as you passed the lighthouse. It's a vantage point most of us locals don't see. Enjoy your trip!

@jeremywilson9787 2 дня назад

We thought the Badger experience was the best! The people who back the vehicles up know what they are doing, for sure!! We did a video on the trip too. Glad Charlie survived. Flamingo sighting 😍 Looks like you were well stocked Trish. 😁Oh my, what big asparagus! I love smoked salmon. We have not learned how to play pickle ball yet, it is a goal of ours though. -Michelle

@beverlypeacock8201 День назад

I took the Badger in 2022 and loved it. I didn’t realize they drove your vehicle on and had gotten out and my vehicle had been driven on. I realized I just had my rain coat on and wanted my hoodie. They were gracious and had a young kid go to my car and get it. Luckily I knew exactly where it was. I got to spend time out on the front deck and on one side of the boat during the ride because of this. Got off and headed to Peninsula state park for 4 days.

About 30 years ago, our honeymoon trip was leave our home in the Twin Cities, drive to Duluth, then to Grand Marais, Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie, then to Green Bay where we spent some time in Door County and Washington Island...was a bit of driving but a very memorable trip. I would like to try it again.

@ShawnPatterson402 День назад

you are right about a Ferry being fun with your RV. We have done a bunch, including Cape May, and Ocracoke, PEI to Nova Scotia and also took old trailer up the inside passage in BC from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert on the Queen of the North back in 1998. That ferry ultimately sank in 2006. Upcoming we hope to take the ferry to Newfoundland, and also from PEI to Les Iles de la Madeleine.... no go around route for these last two :) Continued safe travels.

Next time, have breakfast at Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant in Sister Bay. Very iconic place, and fun to watch the goats on their roof! Did you go to a fish boil? That is a MUST SEE! Both Pelletier's and White Gull Inn do a nice job. Fun memories : )

The SS Badger ride has been awesome all 3 times I have gone across Lake Michigan. To and from a vacation in Duluth in 2022 and a one-way ride from Manitowoc to Ludington after a Pictured Rocks vacation in 2021. It's so much easier than driving across the whole Upper Peninsula and Badger Bingo is so fun. All 3 trips across the lake were in different weather conditions, in 2021 we had a great sunset view from the back deck on the Badger and in 2022 the ride to Manitowoc was so foggy you couldn't see the Ludington North Breakwater lighthouse.
