You’ll Want To Plan A Summer Day Trip To Ohio’s Magical Butterfly House
The only thing more magical than a butterfly house is a butterfly house on Ohio’s very own island.
If you’ve yet to take a day trip (or week-long trip) to Put-In-Bay, we’re about to give you one more reason to do so this summer. The Butterfly House at Put-In-Bay is arguably the state’s most magical butterfly house. Kids and adults alike are enchanted by this indoor wonderland. Take a look:
Take a ferry to Put-In-Bay and head toward the Perry's Cave Family Fun Center, which is where our magical destination is hiding.
Since 2004, this 4,000 sq. ft. aviary has been delighting Put-In-Bay visitors of all ages. Admission is $8 for adults, $4.50 for kids 6 - 12 and children 5 and under are free.
With more than 50 different types of exotic butterflies, you'll see butterflies from all around the world here.
You can check out Perry's Cave itself, mine for gems, rock climb and so much more here. There's even an antique car museum.
The Butterfly House is located at 979 Catawba Ave., Put-in-Bay, OH 43456. Have you ever been here before? If so, share your photos and experiences with us!
