Middle Bass Island: Another Exciting Addition to the Lake Erie Islands


South Bass Island is to the top left. The Village of Put In Bay on South Bass Island is visible. On one side of the marina is the old Lonz Winery building, now also part of the state park. The large building with the yellow roof is the condominiums at St Hazards. Part of the marina area will be home to the popular Middle Bass Island Yacht Club (MBIYC).

This marina should be spectacular - and it is opening in 2009. The Village of Put In Bay also has substantial dockage available. Part of the marina project includes campground improvements. Much of the soil removed from the marina is being used to raise the campground areas making them high and dry for future campers. Visitors can enjoy the various venues on MBI or take a boat/jet ski/or the Sonny S to enjoy all that South Bass Island has to offer. Bird watchers flock to the islands in the spring. The islands are part of a well traveled migratory route, and there are many parks and preserves, to include much of North Bass Island.
Planning your summer vacation time for 2009? - Plan a visit to the Lake Erie Islands.
