I am not interested in rafting 3 or 4 deep as I have heard about at PIB, I wouldn't mind hanging out for the day but retreating to a less rowdy area for the remainder of the time.
If that's what you're looking for, then Middle Bass Island is perfect for you. Middle Bass Island State Park has some of the nicest docks in the great lakes, and the marina is absolutely beautiful. And you're a short 10min ferry ride to Put-In-Bay. I believe the Sonny S is $3 each direction, but someone here might have to correct me. The benefit is that you get your own slip in a beautiful marina with no drunks walking across your boat at 2am. So you can spend the whole day at PIB doing whatever you want to do and soaking up everything the island has to offer. Then when you're done soaking that all in, take the ferry back to Middle Bass and crash in peace and quiet. One caveat: the Sonny S stops running around midnight. Miss the last boat and you're up a creek (and lots of people miss it almost every weekend).
