Quick Facts

History & Context

Lake Erie's Finest Country Club for Yachtsmen Originally known as The Catawba Cliffs Beach Club, the concept was to offer Ohioans an exclusive family resort atmosphere. The first building constructed in 1928 was the Old Chapel which presently houses our Dockmaster's office, Galley Bar and Grill, marina showers and youth game room. Recreational sports in the early days included horseshoes, tennis, boating, golfing, bathing in Lake Erie and general relaxation. Fishing, then, as now, was a favorite sport! The first food service offered was in the Log Grill which was constructed on the site of our pool and sundeck. The Chef specialties and Club member favorites were roast beef and Sunday Chicken Dinners. We now serve as many members and guests on Labor Day weekend as were served the entire first summer at the Log Grill.
