Grafton Ferry

Skip the highway traffic and start your getaway the moment you cross the Mississippi. Connecting St. Charles County directly to the heart of Grafton, the Grafton Ferry cuts roughly 30 minutes off your drive, delivering you straight to our limestone bluffs, riverside patios, and craft beverage scene. Step out of your vehicle, catch the cool breeze off the confluence, and take in sweeping views of the water as you glide across. Whether you’re heading over for a girls' weekend escape, an afternoon of boating, or a trip to Pere Marquette, the ferry isn't just transport, it’s where your weekend begins.
