The boat was clean and the staff was friendly. I was disappointed that the narrative was a taped, speech and not alive tour guide. That didn't allow for any funny stories or interesting facts beyond what was given. And it seemed like there were many more landmarks or interesting facts that could've been shared along the way. read more

The cruise was relaxing, the food was good, and the personnel were very friendly and attentive! They made the trip even better. The live band were very good, played a lot of songs I liked, a good cross section of different styles. read more

great way to see the lake or at least part of it. Very nice staff. enjoyable ride. reasonable prices for snacks and food on board.

crew was very friendly, ship and bathrooms clean, description along the way was short and sweet. only complaint was the voice was clearly AI and monotone with lots of mispronunciations, pay someone to do it professionally read more

Nice slow cruise around part of the Lake. Hearing how the islands got their name, seeing Mt Washington, relaxing enjoying the sun and beautiful weather. Going during the week sure beats the weekend crowds. Wiers is getting ready for Bike Week so handicap parking is at a premium, keep your placard visible. Staff was approachable, polite, almost everyone had a smile. Take the tour, enjoy the scenery, listen to the stories, sit back relax and have a drink/food, have a good time. read more

I recommend taking the mail boat, a two hour excursion, that picks up and deliver the mail during the summer months on the numerous islands in Lake Winnipesaukee. Beautiful trip on a sunny day and you stop along at these remote islands peopled with summer campers and summer residents "roughing it". Highly recommend. read more

We did a three hour late cruise beginning at 1:00pm. It was fun and the occasional commentary was interesting. The food wasn't good though. We had fish sandwiches that showed lettuce on them in the photo but only had a bun, some sauce and a small piece of fish. read more

What a lovely cruise around Lake Winnepesaukee! I'm not too mobile, so I didn't want to climb the stairs to the upper deck. But the inside area right when you first board had chairs at some of the tables. So we just brought two right outside the door. We had a marvelous view, not in the sun and a lovely breeze! It was so calm and peaceful. We then docked in Wolfeboro,and many people got off, and many got on. I wish I had known this was an option. It would've been fun to have lunch in Wolfboro and walk around and check out the area. We will know this for next time. I don't remember seeing it on the website that this was possible to do anyways we had a very relaxing time my husband had a beer and it was just delightful. read more

The lake is pretty and there is plenty of seating. I just found it to be boring. I imagine there is a lot of history and interesting stories related to this large lake. I wish we had been told about them. It would have made it more interesting. Humor would also be helpful. When we booked our tickets online, they suggested we pay $10 to prepay for parking so we didn't have to mess with the metered parking. For this $10 fee, we were directed to a church parking lot that had no parking fee. Save your $10 and park for free. read more

Enjoyed the cruise. Improvements or suggested recommendations: a map of the lake with the route so we could follow where we were in relation to the narrative description of the islands as passing by. Also..when a giftcard has a balance..you should be able to use it on the ship Cafe or gift shop...you have the $$ read more

The cruise was lovely and the views were beautiful. However, the narration was an AI voice that only stated the names of various geographic features and precisely one fact about each of them. I took the two-way cruise, and each way was exactly the same route, despite there being a whole other half of the lake to see. read more

Let me start with, this might be a one off. Who knows how their other cruises go? It seemed the majority of the staff we interacted with were from Romania and were extremely friendly and positive. They actually were the highlight of the cruise! We were probably all in $270 for the entire experience. We drove an hour from Ossipee for this cruise. Regrettably, I can say I would never do it again. I will take that money and drive the hour and a half to the Capital Grille in Salem, New Hampshire! On the outset, this looked like a good way to spend our 21st wedding anniversary. Normally we love dinner cruises! This one left a sour taste in our mouths. Be warned, no air-conditioning. Be warned, though it is a buffet it was extremely limited. For some reason, I had an expectation of a green salad, maybe a slaw, a couple choices of meats, a couple choices of vegetables, and maybe a starch or two. This was not. This was a wait in line with your plate for bread rolls, two different types of apple salad, dried out Restaurant pack turkey breast, a bucket of gravy, dried out roasted vegetable raviolis, dressing, and sautéd green beans. The green beans were delicious. As long as you had gravy, the turkey wasn't too bad. I guess we were lucky that they had gravy when we went through as that seemed to be a major complaint later on. Apparently they ran out and many did not get any. BTW, we paid $10 extra per person to go through that buffet early and get a watered down warm gin drink as an arrival cocktail. There's no table service in the dining room! If you want anything to drink, you must go to the bar. There seemed to be coffee and water gratis. You have no idea what they have at the bar as there is no bar menus on the tables! I had to take a picture and text it to my wife so she could make a decision on what she wanted. And it was hot! Did I mention that there's no air-conditioning? That was rhetorical as I know I did. I was actually over this experience 10 minutes into it but it was too late to escape. I have zero recollection of any safety brief as to where the life vests were or any abandoned ship stations were! Not sure if that's a requirement here in New Hampshire, but it is almost everywhere I've ever been. I will reiterate the fact that the Romanian workers were great! I will reiterate that it was very warm with no air-conditioning. Again, if you want a great experience, take your money and time and go to Capital Grille! My wife and I have chalked this up as an experience. read more

have been a repeat customer over the years . tha ride is always pleasant . the breakfast was disgusting! at the very beginning Alol the breakfast food was cold . cold scrambled eggs, cold sausages and eggs Benny all cold from the start. many people were disappointed. the dessert offerings were pitiful with rubbery cut fruit , cookies that were obviously chips ahoy and strawberry and biscuits with whipped cream. what happened to the fabulous little cakes and pastries? why was the food served cold from the start? it was served deep into middle of the ship so it wasn't weather related. the staff working the buffet didn't speak enough English to be able to tell you what the weird mystery meat was? like I said the ride is nice but after many years , I will never do the food. read more

The cruise scenery was beautiful and commentary was very informative. But the brunch was terrible. Cold microwaved breakfast. Burnt bacon and sausage. No way to heat up cold bagels, muffins or pastry. Omelets made with premade egg and incorrect fillings. Pickled green peppers and onions don't belong in an omelet. No lunch food except dried out fish. Skip the brunch but do the cruise! read more

There were 11 of us for the pirate themed murder mystery, ranging in ages from 19 to 76. We chose this to start off my daughter's bachelorette party. The boat was great, dinner was wonderful, people were super nice. The actual murder mystery was something I would never do again. It made very little sense to any of us, we were pretty lost. It's an interactive event, you need to be up asking others questions trying to solve the murder. Many people weren't interacting and as much as we tried to be, it just didn't make any sense. Even at the end when you find out who the murderer is, it still didn't click. Pretty disappointed The food was delicious and staff was very nice and of course being on the lake is always a bonus. We thoroughly enjoyed that.... read more

The Mt Washington Sunset Dinner Cruise was a huge disappointment. We were a party of 5 and I paid a fortune for the worst food I've ever had. Not exaggerating- revolting slop. Soggy rolls, dry tasteless fish, vegetables so overcooked the fell apart when you forked them, some chicken was the only edible thing. Dessert was labeled as crème brûlée but was a disgusting mousse thing that tasted of artificial flavors. Truly angry with the quality of this dinner for $75/per person. Having said that, I wish we had done only a lake cruise and not the dinner cruise, it would have been a much better experience. Do not waste your money on the dinner cruise. read more

We had a blast. My husband and I chose the morning scenic cruise yesterday. The ride was smooth and the staff were friendly and accommodating. I love the open concept they have with three levels to explore. We enjoyed drinks and the fresh air while learning about the history of the lake. We're definitely going to check out another cruise - probably the sunset buffet dinner next! Would recommend! read more

This was one of the best experience we've had on the lake. This historic boat is one of the best ways to cruise. The lake on the staff made us feel like we knew them for years and made our experience even better. read more

Excellent time cruise was great food was awesome staff were very curtious would highly recommend it

We took the Fourth of July dinnerr cruise last week and the food I would rate less than one. It was terrible very few selection. The corn was not done. The chicken was bland. As was the vegetarian rice and the desserts were something you would get at a subpar grocery store There weren't very many choices. They served water for free, but the drinks were extremely expensive $15 for a small glass of wine in a plastic cup and even getting something like a soda was not included in the price of the dinner. I The sound system wasn't very good so you could not hear the captain explain anything about the lake as you travel going to the fireworks display. I would definitely not recommend this to anyone read more

Even though was nit great, this cruise and crew members were all wonderful. The information was very interesting and the scenery was beautiful. I highly recommend this cruise. We did not realize you could get off in Wolfboro for a dew hours and then come back to Weirs Beach. If the weather is good, you can make a day of it. read more

We had a great time and the two couples that went with is agreed! We will be doing it again next year. The food was excellent and the crew was so polite and friendly. read more

What a wonderful day to be on the water! Being a NH resident, I have been on the Mount 3-4 times over the years and it never gets old. We had family with us from England and they were totally impressed! The narration was well done and informative along with the staff being friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it! read more

Amazing day on board the Mount Washington cruise ship! We thoroughly enjoyed live music, drinks, snacks, and seeing the gorgeous island views on lake Winnipesaukee! We took our daughter to celebrate her 45th birthday (along with our three young granddaughters and our son-in-law). A fantastic family day for sure! The captain even took our girls and a few other children into see the ship's wheel (their dad snapped a pic). Every staff member was super nice. They honestly couldn't have been more pleasant. We'll go again! read more

We had a great time on the cruise last weekend. The staff were all amazing! Everyone was so helpful! Thank you!

wonderful time! crew was stellar! It was supposed to be a 3-hour tour. However, Gilligan and the Skipper kept arguing, and as a result, got lost. But after the professor straightened them out, we continued without further incident and made it safely back. The Howells were really uppity but we all ignored them and had a great time! read more

Very friendly staff , very nice tour on the lake. It was fun to go again after 60 years.

What a beautiful, relaxing cruise on Lake Winnepesaukee. There is a great view no matter where you sit. Plenty of seats with tables, and seating in the shade. We took the 2 1/2 hour narrated scenic tour from Weirs Beach to Wolfeboro and back. I suggest taking the 10:00 launch time, then get off at Wolfeboro have lunch, do so site seeing, and take the next boat back. On the boat there is a full bar and depending on what cruise you take the on board restaurant serves lunch, dinner, or Sunday brunch. read more

A great experience! read more

We loved the ship and Sunday brunch was great! Lots of places to sit and watch the lake as we continued the 3 hr voyage. Highly recommend.

Jason, at the Wolfeboro docks, was great! Friendly, Knowledgeable and patient! He answered all my questions about the various options that Mount Washington Cruises offered.

I took my grandchildren on the Sophie C, as we work at Sandy Island, one of the stops and both kids have met the mailboat with our mail pouch, and exchanged it for incoming mail. Everyone on board was sweet to us, letting us take pictures with them, and greeting them warmly. They even mentioned them in their announcements as they talk about the islands and the upcoming stops.
