St. Hazards Employee Party

The St. Hazards employee party brought together 19 people from six countries: Bulgaria, Tajikistan, Turkey, Macedonia, Moldova and The United States.  

The party started at 9:00 pm with a toast to Hazards followed by a candlelit dinner. Head cook, Nelly, made all sorts of good food including pizza, cheesy mashed potatoes, barbecue meatballs, fresh bread and even a cake!

After the meal, the bartenders made special drinks from their countries for everyone to try. The rest of the night was spent talking, dancing, shooting pool, and reminiscing about the summer. A great time was had by all...


What a shame that summer has to end.

New Middle Bass Jewely Arrives in the Gift Shop

Today, new jewelry and key chains arrived in the gift shop. All were hand-carved in Bali. They feature Lake Erie and Bass Island designs and are made from stainless steel, leather and shells. We also have shark tooth necklaces and colorful braided bracelets.  

The shipment was supposed arrive on Middle Bass by June. And it almost did. The shipment from Bali showed up safely in Cincinnati. But then customs sent it back across the Pacific. The mistake, error or whatever it was caused the shipment to be late. It was supposed to be here at the start of summer.

We're just glad that it's finally here. Due to the lateness of the shipment, all jewelry and keychains are on SALE. More pictures will be included soon.

Oh, to be where there's beach!

The St. Hazards Saints and $inners Beach Bar opens every weekend at 12:00 pm! Our quaint little bar has the feel of a place far away!

Relax among the planted palm trees and potted tropical plants under the shade of an umbrella. Soak in the sun on one of our hammocks. Take a picture with our mysterious statues from the far far south. Or venture into the warm July water.

We play all sorts of interesting and refreshing music that will be sure to put you in the spirit of summer. We serve ice cold beer, wine, rum punch, margaritas and more!

Join us during the day and meet new island friends or in the evening for a bonfire on the beach. Bring your boat to the shore and bring your friends!

4th of July at St. Hazards 2011

Scott Wright Jams Poolside

Over 4th of July weekend, Middle Bass Island had an exceptional crowd. We enjoyed having so many people join us over the holiday weekend!

Visitors came from all over. From Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and even from Georgia. They spent the holiday weekend relaxing poolside and lounging by tropical plants in the shade near the Tiki Bar.

An island rhythm reggae band, Island Flava, played in between the Tiki Bar and the pool. It was the band's third year at St. Hazards and we look forward to having them back again. Scott Wright, was his usual rocking self and kept the party going strong.

Another popular weekend spot was the Saints and $inners Beach Bar. The beach offers amazing views. At our beach you can see Ballast Island, Lost Ballast, Put-in-Bay and Kelley's Island. You can watch the waves roll in and the various boats that zip or sail across the lake.

There aren't too many islands you can visit north of the Florida Keys. Middle Bass Island provides a quiet island setting that springs to life every weekend. And holiday weekends are always the best. Especially when there are fireworks over the lake!

Mediterranean Plants on Middle Bass Island

Taken Memorial Day Weekend

Arundo donax is a fast-growing perennial cane we have here at St. Hazards.

These pictures, taken by owner Ed, show just how fast Arundo donax grows. The first picture was taken Memorial Day Weekend and the second two weeks later.

Taken Two Weeks Later

Also referred to as Giant Cane, the Arundo donax is from the Mediterranean. It's one of the many tropical plants growing at St. Hazards throughout the summer.

The variety of tropical plants adds to the natural beauty of Middle Bass Island, and helps to create a unique island atmosphere you won't find anywhere else.
