The Islands of Lake Erie in Ohio

Ever thought that there would be islands on a lake? Most people would think that only islands at the sea can be visited, but for something a little different, why not visit the islands at Lake Erie in Ohio? These islands are a group of archipelagic islands on Lake Erie, and the most popular ones that bus rental visitors tend to visit are Kelleys Island, and the Bass Islands. Most of these islands are accessible via car ferries, or if your budget is bigger, you can even reach there on a private boat or a small plane.

This island has a low population and has a quaint small village on the south side of the island. One of the most popular attraction at Kelleys Island is the Glacial Grooves State Park, which is a wave trough carved by glaciers along the bedrock.
