The ferry from Wolf Island, near Kingston, to the US has been out of operation for quite a while as the ferry was up for sale and the Canadian side customs border post needed repairs/updates.
There’s news that the ferry has been bought and might be up and running as soon as next Summer (for those of you travelling to the US) with a temporary Canadian customs post. Regardless of if you visit or boycott currently this has been a really neat way to fit in a ride to the Adirondacks or New York State for years. The Kingston-Wolf Island ferry has also been updated to a larger boat and once many of the wrinkles are sorted out this combination offers a great way (and a scenic way) to get to the US from the Canadian side.
Us locals thought it would never come back but it’s good to see there’s a demand. Apparently a large number of Cape Vincent residents used the ferry and they pushed the economic argument for reinstating the crossing too.
