TRANSPORTING YOUR HORSE TO MACKINAC
Traveling to Mackinac Island with your Horse
As of August 1st, 2024, Star Line Freight Company is no longer transporting freight to Mackinac Island.
Travel by Barge with Arnold Freight Company
Drive your truck and trailer onto a barge and have your horse come to the island--stress free in your trailer!
Once you arrive on the island, you can unload your trailer on the dock. All trailers must be brought back to the mainland, but don't stress, the crew will take your rig back so you can stay with your horse! Please keep in mind that with their demanding schedule, the boat cannot wait long for you to unload your horses. Please have your gear ready, and your horses tacked so you can quickly unload and start your Mackinac Island experience!
If you request to land at British Landing, you are immediately immersed in the Mackinac Island State Park and greeted by an Equestrian Center staff member. Skip all the hustle and bustle of downtown and make a quick 0.9 mile jaunt on horseback to the barn to settle your horse in after you arrive.
