The Merry Point Ferry is located in scenic, rural Lancaster County, Virginia and provides breathtaking waterscapes as one crosses the Corrotoman River which is located within Virginia's portion of the Chesapeake Bay, included within the Northern Neck Heritage Area, and also part of the Virginia River Realm. The ferry is managed by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) as a free ferry for passengers. The ferry can carry a maximum of six passengers and sixteen tons on each trip. It is operational Tuesday through Saturday weather permitting. It is non-operational on Sundays and Mondays. If you visit Lancaster County be sure to take the ferry. It is particularly beautiful at sunrise and sunset. Note: To get more information regarding the ferry, its schedule, or operational status call 511 (within VA) or see the VDOT website. I believe the hours may change slightly to accommodate daylight changes. The ferry does not operate after dark. Please check with VDOT.
