Tourism
In contrast to neighboring Put-In-Bay, Middle Bass is far less crowded and overtly "touristy." In addition to the state park, the island also has a restaurant/bar, J.F. Walleye's, and a small resort, St. Hazard's. A reasonable selection of food, some clothing and common hardware items are available at Eddies General Store in the center of the island.
Middle Bass is serviced by the Miller Boat Line from Catawba Island and the Middle Bass Ferry Line from Put-In-Bay. It is common to use Middle Bass as a lower cost/less crowded base and then take the Sonny S (sole ship of the Middle Bass Ferry Line) to Put-In-Bay for the day.
Middle Bass Island Airport has a 1852-foot runway with commercial air-taxi service. Middle Bass-East Point Airport offers a 2,085-foot turf runway.
