Lake Erie Help

Hi folk's just joined on here. Great site with alot of good "no bull" info.
We come out to Erie every year the 2nd week of May and stay on South Bass. Always have a great time. I would like to bring the "Better Half" out a little later in the season since we only live about 5 hrs away. Where would a good place be to stay for a long weekend on the mainland. There seems to be so many I thought someone could steer us toward a good place. I know there's places where you can keep your boat docked while your there but not sure where places are like that. Thanks for any help and we'll post if we do any good in May and what worked for us.
