The Portage Princess Tour Boat is the ultimate way to see the Portage Lakes for large groups. The Tour Boat is a 50’ commercial pontoon boat powered by two 70-horsepowered engines. The Portage Princess is enclosed and heated, therefore able to accommodate its guests rain or shine. The boat has seating for 20 to 60 passengers and has 2 buffet tables to allow for “picnicking aboard”. There is a restroom on board as well as at the dock launch. Captain John Roessner has been entertaining groups on the Tour Boat since 1981. Thousands of passengers have listened to the wash of the natural spring-fed water against the boat as she gently glides along the Portage Lakes. The Portage Princess can be reserved for any day between 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM. The Portage Princess II offers daily general public tours at 3:00 PM for $20.00 / person. For groups less than 13 passengers you can arrange a private tour at $20/person 1 1/2a hour or $30/person 2 hour any day between 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
