To keep you in the know, we’re tracking down as much info as we can about each business’s plans to open for 2026. The dates below are subject to change. Our information is good, but not definitive so when in doubt, call ahead! We’ll update the page as more dates come in!

What To Expect In May:
May is the bridge between the calm, quiet spring fishing and sightseeing season, and the fun wild summer season at Put-in-Bay, and you can get a little taste of both depending on when you come.
