Grafton Ferry is now OPEN! (Season runs April - November)

If you are hosting your wedding, shower or bachelor/bachelorette party in Grafton, let your guests from St. Louis know about the Grafton Ferry. The ferry carries passengers from St. Charles, Mo., to Grafton. The Illinois side of the landing is located near the Grafton Lighthouse and public boat ramp off Market Street. The landing on the Missouri side is at Grafton Ferry Road, which is just off of Highway 94. Click here for directions from Missouri side.

The ferry will decrease travel time between St. Charles County to Grafton by approximately 30 minutes. The ferry will be able to accommodate buses and vans and people will be allowed to get out of their vehicles during the trek across the river.
