2011 River Tours Soon To Start!!!

Sunday, April 24th, 2011

This spring has been somewhat delayed with colder than normal temperatures, and the river level is still high and unsettled.  We plan to be operable in early May, with a definite start up date yet to be determined.

We are presently working on alterations on our Riverfront property in order to expand our offerings to include an Outdoor Service Area for our Wolcott Wines and selected Beers.  This  “Riverview Wine Garden”  will provide for a relaxful setting to sample our popular wines as you enjoy the views of the River.  Nestled between the Frankenmuth Brewery and the Marv Herzog Hotel you’ll find a peaceful respite from busy Main Street.  Photos of our progress will be forthcoming.
