The Lakeshore Trolley runs seven days a week throughout the summer, picking you up and dropping you off at local sites of interest. This is a great summer activity that the whole family can enjoy!
Both trolleys are wheelchair and walker-friendly, and strollers/wagons are welcome on board in a folded position.
