Middle Bass Island, Ohio on Beautiful Lake Erie


Middle Bass Island, Ohio

"The Quiet Island for Active People"


Middle Bass Island, Ohio is truly a hidden treasure in Lake Erie. At 813 acres it is the fourth largest of the Lake Erie Islands. Still very affordable by island standards, Middle Bass offers beautiful wildlife areas, one of the best marinas on the Great Lakes, a state campground, a general store, and two restaurants. Filled with history Middle Bass was called "Isle des Fleur" or Island of Flowers by Robert de LaSalle, the famous French explorer in 1679.

Middle Bass Island is serviced by Millers Ferry for passengers and vehicles. The Sonny S runs throughout the season from Middle Bass to the village of Put in Bay on South Bass Island. There is a paved airstrip to service the needs of pilots and charter planes. Charter boats are also available.
