Saddlebag Lake Ferry active?

Just checking. I know the resort has closed and assume the ferry is as well but worth the ask. Maybe someone is trying to make a few extra bucks during this crazy COVID-19. Thanks

Saddlebag Lake Resort:
Yes the WATER TAXI is OPEN. FACE MASKS are required. Currently CASH ONLY. We're working to stabilize staffing & scheduling and bring credit card abilities online, but it's safe to assume that it will run on the 1/2 hour at least 6 days a week from 8:00AM-6:30PM x 7 DAYS A WEEK through August. Please check back here for any day-off announcements and general revisions. Thanks

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

We took the Saddlebag Lake Ferry the weekend of July 11th. They were running their full schedule and were pretty busy. Super friendly people. Masks are required and remember that it is cash only!
