When we purchased this property it had a rickety platform, called a dock. Over a couple of years and many, many hours of going through the right channels we had a boat house built. One major problem (challenge) we faced was that we were only allowed a 5 foot dock to put chairs and get some sun. After much thinking, we decided to put the deck on the roof. We were the first boat house on the lake with a sun drenched sun deck and even today when we eat supper on the 'deck' the boats trolling by give us a thumbs up or a 'toot' with the boat horn.
Before owning this property, we had traveled to Brantingham for many years before our family came along. We had helped our friends restore and work on Dark Island, the large island in the middle of Brantingham . They called it 'camp', we called it luxury! Our children spent many a wonderful summer at the Lake and still to this day stay in touch with many of their friends, who are now all married with children of their own. When you arrive at the Lake something tells you, this is 'home'.
