As most of you know, cell phones generally do not work on Isle Royal, and there are no land line phones either. But the Park Service does have one satellite phone available for visitor use.

It looks like the closest camp grounds to Grand Portage are at the Grand Portage Casino/Lodge (in Grand Portage), or Judge Magney State Park (about 15 miles south). Are these the best options for camping?

On a map, it looks like there are two marinas in Grand Portage. One is near the casino, the other is about 3 miles NE of the casino. Which marina does the Voyager II depart from?

Just thought I would share this photo of the Voyager II

What is the postal zip code for Isle Royal?

Where can I find a daily weather forcast for Isle Royal? I see a link for current weather and past conditions but where can I find a 7 day forcast?

That parking lot looks small. Is there enough spaces for everyone that takes the Voyager II?

Does anyone have a photo or link to their website?

Is there over-night parking available near the Voyager dock?
If so, what does it cost?
