| "Mr. Swan" - So, I think I'm okay w/calling you "Mac" now! We had such a fabulous experience staying at your home. We found everything we needed to be comfortable. All the kids (ages 20, 17, 13, 6, 6 AND 6) found something to do and enjoy. We came to think of the deer as our family pets! We especially enjoyed the seclusion of the bay and the way in which it is protected from the wind. I had to work a few hours each day but didn't mind doing so because I had such great surroundings. We look forward to staying at your home again! |

Karen, Mary, Ken and I look forward to our 2006 season with the
additions and improvements that follow: We have updated in
response to our guests' suggestions: DSL wireless should be up
and running for our first summer guests. We upgraded the cooktop
to the smooth style (5 burners), installed new carpeting in the
lower-level bedroom, changed out the double beds for queens
and replaced sheets with 600 count cotton. Future improvements in no particular order:
window treatments in the "big room" and a larger south deck for
more seating near the barbeque. I already have the parts for overhauling the bbq with new
burners just as soon as the weather warms.
Thanks to all of our guests for helping us to improve the experience for those that follow. We look forward to hearing from you all.
If you are considering staying with us this year, please feel free to
call for the latest.

Regarding your rental, we just treated it like it was our own....and had a tough time giving up the "adoption!"
You probably don't hear this from everyone but I was awed by the woodworking details, the numerous homemade built-ins and the obvious craftsmanship that went into the home's construction. (Don't tell Mary I told you that, she thinks I'm nuts)! The soul of its builders and family still remains and we feel fortunate to have been able to share this special place!
I am attaching a photo of your "pet" deer which apparently love eating from your flower beds, shrubs and trees! They also enjoy the property!!

We are delighted to announce to our guests that the Swan Family
Home has moved into its permanent ownership: Mary Swan and her son
Ken Rand, along with Mac and Karen Swan are committed to
maintaining the unique atmosphere and quietude that we have
enjoyed on the lake. Since Ken's grandparents acquired the
property in 1952 until now, Cat Bay has been a special retreat from
the cares, concerns, and worldly cares of the work-a-day world.
We are delighted to be blessed with the opportunity to share this
special place with others. Each season just like each guest brings experiences memorable and new.
Please book early.

We really enjoyed our stay at the vacation home of Mac and Karen Swan in Polson, Montana this past Sept. We went after Labor Day, less crowded in the parks, and the weather was wonderful with just a hint of fall in the air.
The home is very comfortable and charming and built as a labor of love by Mac's father year's ago. It is on a secluded cove and very peaceful if you are looking to escape the pressures of "city" life.
Mac and Karen greeted us upon arrival and made us feel very welcome from the start. We stayed for a week and it was a wonderful setting for a family reunion for our extended family living in the west. Each night we would have a campfire by the lake, roasting
marshmellows and catching up.
We would love to go back to Polson in the future and stay at the Swan Family Home when we do.

| We spent a week at the Swan Family Home last summer and had an absolutely wonderful time. It is located on a secluded bay and we had the feeling there was one else around, even though the town of Polson is just a few minutes away. Having rented a number of properties in the past, we found the home to be very well equipped (including a hair dryer in every bathroon and a canoe at their private dock). Mac and Mary went out of their way to be great hosts. It's too bad it's a two-day drive from home. Otherwise we would be frequent visitors. |
