A trip on the Benton-Houston Ferry across the Tennessee River



This Tennessee Ferry connects Benton County and Houston County across the Tennessee River. Also, the ferry connects both sides of highway TN147 to the cities of Big Sandy and Erin. The ferry runs every day of the year unless there is bad weather, and the ride costs $1.

One of the things to see during the ride is a partially abandoned railroad bridge and a partially submerged grain elevator.

There are only two working Ferries in Tennessee. The other one crosses the Cumberland River in Stewart County, seen here:
