 Rental Wanted - Summer 2012   

New grandparents looking for weekly rental of a lakefront home some time during the summer of 2012. I am an avid rower and own my own single. Our son and daughter-in-law own kayaks. Baby Eloise will be one year old next summer. Our other two sons would love to try canoeing. The entire family loves to swim. Middle son's English bulldog (who we have yet to hear bark) will accompany us. Are there homes on Big Alum Lake that are rented by the week?
