Meet The Host

Lisa
Owner
LisaIcon
Our names are Shannon & Lisa. We fell in love with the Moses Lake area for its 250+ days of sunshine per year, amazing lake, fun sand dunes and so many other activities the area has to offer. We love this home and stay as often as our work & kids schedules allow us to and when we're not here, we share it with guests like you! We would be honored to have you as a guest at our lake house and hope you love it as much as we do!

Shannon & I were both born and raised in the Seattle area and have been married for 14 years. We were both previously married and have a blended family with 6 children total. We have 4 boys and 2 girls. Three of our sons are now grown and our younger children are 15, 12 & 9 years old. We love to travel, explore new areas and meet new people. We enjoy the outdoors, scuba diving, wine, eating out, gardening and absolutely love being on the water. Thank you again for considering our home for your next vacation!
