Isle Royale Allowing Overnight Anchoring

Isle Royale National park is now allowing boaters to anchor overnight in the Lake Superior waters of the park.

While the waters surrounding Isle Royale have been open for fishing all Spring, anchoring overnight, was suspended until now.

In order to anchor overnight, boaters will need a permit, and will have to pay entrance fees in advance.

All Isle Royal facilities including docks, trails, visitor centers, restrooms and campgrounds remain closed, but park officials hope to open more facilities by the end of the month.

Ferry service has been cancelled for the Summer.
