Est. 1922 · Vermilion, Ohio

A community built on the water, by the people who served on it.

In 1922, a group of Spanish-American War veterans purchased a 55-acre tract of farmland roughly three miles west of Vermilion Village. On this land they planted the seeds for a planned community — Volunteer Bay — where only honorably discharged veterans of the Spanish-American War, their wives, widows, and lineal descendants could forever abide.
