Middle Bass Island State Park is most notably known for being home to the Lonz Winery. Once a working winery, this place closed down in 2000 and has since been reopened for public tours. The brick and stone architecture is unique, almost castle-esque. Since its restoration, visitors can see the five historic cellars, the press house, and explore the rest of the grounds. Every summer, the patio of Lonz Winery hosts the annual Middle Bass Island Music Festival. Fun for the whole family, it's a great chance to eat food, enjoy drinks, and dance to some of the best music in Ohio. If grooving in the sun is on your to-do list while RV camping at Lake Erie, check the dates for this year’s festival and book accordingly.

Here, you'll find some lovely pebble beaches where you can rent jet skis, go swimming, and generally enjoy nature. You can try out any of the area's nice restaurants and end the night with a glass of wine overlooking the placid waters of the lake. Being a small island, there are no gas stations nearby; however, there are a few on Put-In-Bay and a ton on the mainland.
