Full description

There are only a handful of places left in the country where mail is still delivered by boat, and none with a more exciting and scenic tour than this! With over 100 years of mail service, we still deliver mail to about 75 homes around the lake on a daily basis from June 15 – September 15. The Walworth departs promptly at 10:00am every day with a load of passengers, mail, newspapers and a very unique mail person. The Mailboat returns to the Riviera Docks after its 2 ½-hour cruise around the entire lake.
