About
One of four "cabents" at South Bass Island - ODNR's own term for this overnight option, used alongside plain "Cabins" on the same park page. South Bass Island is a Lake Erie island near Put-in-Bay, reachable by ferry. The campground and these cabents are open May through mid-October.
Fees
Rates vary by cabin and season; check current pricing when booking online. A $6.50 reservation fee applies per booking.
ODNR's own South Bass Island page uses both the term "cabents" and plain "Cabins" for this same product in different places, but doesn't publish further amenity detail - a real, disclosed gap rather than a guess. Confirm bed count, kitchen, and bathroom facilities when booking.
