About this Location

Catawba Island is part of the Ottawa County peninsula. Catawba Island is one of 12 townships that make up Ottawa County, Ohio. It is commonly referred to as Catawba and Catawba Island, although it is not an island as its name implies. Due to its sheltered bay and inlets, land elevation along the shore with fewer cliffs, and easy access to Lake Erie, it has become one of the preferred areas for pleasure boat owners to dock and store their boats. Development was stagnant for years due to a lack of sanitary sewers. Once this was improved, Catawba Island Peninsula started to bloom, with all sorts of improvements, condos, expensive homes, marinas, and businesses. It has become a preferred destination for those enjoying Lake Erie waters.
