Established in 1888 by Gustav Heineman, a German immigrant, Heineman Winery thrived on the Lake Erie Islands, known for their quality grapes due to ideal soil conditions and a lengthy growing season. Despite the Prohibition's impact in 1919, Heineman's survived by selling grape juice and offering tours. Today, under the stewardship of the third, fourth, and fifth generations – Louis, Edward, and Dustin – the winery cultivates 50 acres of grapes, ensuring "vine to wine" quality control. South Bass grows Lubrusca grapes, primarily Concord and Catawba varieties, producing grape juices and popular wines like Pink Catawba. Additionally, Labrusca grapes like Ives, Delaware, and Niagara contribute to the island's diverse wine portfolio, featuring both Varietal and blended options like Sauterne and Burgundy, reflecting classical heritage.

Yes, guests are welcome to bring their own alcohol to their hotel rooms. We want to ensure your stay is comfortable and enjoyable. If you have any further questions or if there’s anything else we can assist you with, feel free to let us know. Cheers to a great stay!
Can guests stroll between bars in Put-in-Bay while enjoying a drink?
Unfortunately, no. Although Ohio has introduced the concept of ‘Designated Outdoor Refreshment Areas’ (D.O.R.A.s), Put-in-Bay is not currently designated as one of them.
Is it necessary to bring my car to the island?
Leave your car behind! Our golf cart rentals are available upon arrival, and you can seamlessly include them in your reservation. Experience the convenience of Put-in-Bay’s close-knit layout, and with limited parking on the island, it’s a smart way to save your money!
Is it necessary to make ferryboat reservations in advance?
No, reservations are not required for the Miller Ferry; it’s walk-up only. However, for the Jet Express, they offer both walk-up and presale options. Keep in mind that the Miller Ferry is more budget-friendly but requires a 2 minute taxi ride to downtown that costs around $5 per rider depending on which taxi used. It’s worth noting taxis are ready and waiting when you walk off the Miller Ferry. On the other hand, the Jet Express takes you directly downtown. Both ferries provide a unique experience!
