The Loony Bin is a fully equipped vacation rental cottage on 100 feet of quiet, secluded Loon Lake. A preferred summer residence of the wealthy, including Presidents Harrison and McKinley, Loon Lake is a private body of water about three miles in length.  Because 100 percent of the shoreline is privately owned, there is no access to the lake for the general public.Located just several feet from the water's edge, guests will enjoy magnificent views from the large outdoor deck. Sunsets fall across the view of the relatively undisturbed western shoreline.
