Hello-
We are staying in a town called Cremia - a few miles from Menaggio. We have a car that we'll be driving to Menaggio for sight seeing and to access the ferry. Are there lots near the ferry dock I can park in? Is the ferry near the part of town with shopping, restaurants, etc.? Thanks!

The Menaggio ferry dock is below:

The area with the main piazza and restaurants is on Piazza Garibaldi, maybe 1/4 of a mile walk (5 min or so) north of the ferry.

There is a parking lot at the ferry, but not big, so not too many stalls.
Coming from the north, there is another small one here, past the ferry (south of the ferry) but very close to the ferry.:

Closer to Piazza Garibaldi, where the action (and my hotel) was, I parked along the lake here:

it's free from the Grand Hotel Victoria and beyond (check the stripes. Blue stripes=pay at the meter, White stripes=free)
There is also a parking lot next to the Hotel Victoria (free)

and another one even bigger at the cemetery (see link below) for when I couldn't find anything closer (my hotel was on Piazza Garibaldi, but no parking).

So there is plenty of free parking. I've been there in July only, when it's busy, and I never had problems finding a place.
