Shuttle

Shuttle to Camp Blodgett

October 20, 2018 3:30 pm - 11:15 pm

One shuttle will provide transportation from the hotels to the ceremony. It will depart from the Courtyard by Marriott hotel and stop at the Best Western, arriving at Camp Blodgett at approximately 4:15. Many hotels are within walking distance to these shuttle points, feel free to take the shuttle even if you are staying elsewhere! After dinner, the shuttle will run back to the hotels throughout the evening, departing from Camp Blodgett at 8:00, 9:30, and 11:15. Due to the distance between the hotel and Camp Blodgett, only one trip will be made before the ceremony. The shuttle can carry a maximum of 54 people so not everyone will be able to catch the shuttle beforehand. However, you may leave a car at Camp Blodgett overnight if needed and pick it up by 9am Sunday. Details on shuttle timing can be found on the "SCHEDULE" page.

Travel Note

Lake Michigan Ferry

For those traveling from Wisconsin - there is a ferry that travels from Milwaukee to Muskegon, which is 20 minutes north of Grand Haven and 30 minutes north of Camp Blodgett. Round trip tickets are available for approximately $175 per person, not including a car. Taking the ferry is pricy and may be tricky to plan, but it provides an alternative if you prefer not to drive around Lake Michigan through Chicago.
