It is located on North Bass Island, an island located in Lake Erie. It is also known as Isle Saint George. The 688 acre island is one of few islands has not been commercially developed.

According to the 2000 census the island had 13 permanent residents.
This cache will require special transportation arrangements. There is no public marina. The marina is for residents only. Use your imagination to get here! Jet skis, kayaks, airplanes would all be excellent choices. If you are traveling by water, there are several locations where you can “beach” your craft of choice to reach the cache.
This cache is located near the main dock from which the harvested grapes are shipped off the island each fall. If you are lucky enough to attempt this cache in the fall, the aroma of the grapes will be evident in the air.
Once on the island the terrain rating will drop to a 1.5.
