It is roughly 750 acres with only 30 year round residents but many more, of course, seasonally. The marina does not rent golf carts and the nearby Walleyes restaurant, which does, is closed during the week. This being a Tuesday means we are out of luck for wheels.

Lonz Winery has a tragic history. On July 1, 2000 a terrace collapsed, leaving one dead and dozens injured. The property was purchased by the state of Ohio and the Middle Bass State Park was established in 2001. Since that time, it has been renovated and reopened to the public in June 2017. It is no longer a winery but does provides tours and is a venue for outdoor events ranging from concerts, art fairs, and weddings.  There is a coffee shop, where the press room used to be, and in the near future a speakeasy bar will open.  We grab some coffee and a breakfast sandwich before touring the grounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-889\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-850x850.jpg 850w, https:\/\/cincinnatiprime11.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_1349-1320x1320.jpg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><em style=\"\"><b>Pictures of what is left of Lonz Winery.
