About Bobs Lake Getaway

I am a psychologist from Philadelphia who discovered Bobs Lake quite accidentally in 1982.
I had never seen anything so beautiful and our whole family has not missed a summer since. We rented for a decade at what was then Morters Cabins. When told we could no longer bring our dog, we bought a little swarth of land on a nearby island. I loved Morters so much that I had to be certain I could swim from there to the island, which I was able to do.
In 2006 we heard that Morters had been cut in half and half of it sold. When the remainder came up for sale, in 2010, Chuck Morter gave us a mortgage to help us buy it. Fixing it up became a labor of love that has gone on now for over a decade.


Our family comes every summer. My youngest son who was eight when we bought it, loves the island property. He fell in love there and his oldest son took his first steps in the main cottage’s living room. We enjoy spending our family vacations there.
Bobs Lake Getaway
Over the years, we slowly built up the property, calling it Bobs Lake Getaway, adding a guest cottage, adult tree house, basketball court, a bunkie, a new kitchen, seating for 22 in the dining room, a glamping tent and a hot tub.
