S.S. Milwaukee Clipper is a preserved Great Lakes passenger ship moored in Muskegon.
Its layered history as a steamship and later automobile ferry gives visitors an opportunity to explore a form of regional travel that linked lakeshore communities.
Select a currently offered tour or event before arriving; the ship does not operate as a passenger ferry. Seasonal dates, admission and access to particular spaces vary. Historic stairways and confined areas can affect mobility, so discuss access needs with the operator in advance. The photograph shows the vessel at its berth rather than a cruise underway.
