Isle St. George offers the rare cadence of island living on Lake Erie’s North Bass Island, where water, wind, and sky shape the day. Much of the shoreline and interior is protected as North Bass Island State Park, managed by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, inviting quiet paddles, world-class walleye fishing, and migrating-bird sightings along secluded coves. Conservation-minded residents often connect with the Lake Erie Islands Conservancy, while day trips to Put-in-Bay or Kelleys Island add dining, events, and history, including the National Park Service’s Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial.
Access is by private boat or small aircraft; the Put-in-Bay Township Port Authority oversees the island airfield and seasonal services, making travel logistics straightforward for owners and visitors. Families appreciate the one-room North Bass Island School, part of the Put-in-Bay Local School District, and supplemental enrichment comes via the Ida Rupp Public Library’s Erie Islands Library system and regional science programs at Ohio Sea Grant’s Stone Laboratory. Everyday errands and mainland healthcare are an easy hop to Port Clinton, while county services are anchored by Ottawa County.
Homes here range from vintage cottages tucked among trees to modern retreats with panoramic lake views, all prized for privacy and an unhurried pace.
