Fishermen Rule


We are after Labor Day, and although we still have a few holdouts in the form of wave boarders, water skiers and jet skiers, fishermen now own the lake. Crisp mornings and calm waters make Lake Manitou the perfect venue for a leisurely run with rod and reel.

You Know You've Been on the Island too Long When....


This set me back a little. The missus did it. I guess I'll just try to ignore the whole deal--unless I overhear her talking to him.

Lake Manitou has a Visitor


We are graced by the presence of a hot air balloon--they visit us from time to time. They always seem to miss the trees on Treasure Island, but not by much!
