Kelleys Island
Kelleys Island is a village on its namesake Lake Erie island in Erie County, a seasonal destination known for the Glacial Grooves, state park, wineries, and quiet shoreline, reached by ferry and home to a base of lodging, restaurant, recreation, and service businesses serving summer visitors. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Kelleys Island area's lodging, restaurant, recreation, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — nationwide, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
