The fastest way to Put-In-Bay. This ferry docks in downtown PIB, so you're right in the heart of it as soon as you get there. It also offers late night service back from the island, so you can stay late. You can take bikes onboard, but it does not ferry cars, so you'll need to rent bikes or golf carts when you get the island.

This is the ferry to take if you want to bring your car to Put-In-Bay. Located a little further away on Catawba Island, it's reasonably priced and drops off near the airport on PIB. If you take this ferry, make sure to reserve a golf cart ahead of time or it's a long walk to downtown PIB.

A classic stop when you're in the Western basin of Lake Erie. You'll have to catch a ferry to get there, but enjoy the Island Life while you're here. Full of restaurants and wineries, you can still find fun for the whole family. Go in the World's Largest Geode at Heineman's Winery or check out Perry's Cave to get a taste of history. Highly recommend a golf cart to cruise the entire island to take in the beautiful homes and scenery.

Smaller than Put-In-Bay, but just as much fun. Visit the beach on the north side of the island for a beautiful shallow beach. A must-stop is the Village Pump for perch and brandy alexanders. Cruise the island on bikes, golf cart, or car to get great views of Marblehead, Put-In-Bay, and the beautiful homes.

This is one of my favorite places to go in Vactionland. This brewery offers a large amount of outdoor seating in an idyllic setting. Enjoy food and drink at one of their many tables nestled into the landscaping or out on the lawn while you and your party play yard games. Sit back and relax as the kids have plenty of room to run, play, and make friends.
