Rent a bigger place with another family and split the cost. I did that many times and those were my favorite family vacations of all time. One time I rented the same place for two weeks in a row with two different families (the overlap weekend was really fun). The second family kept it another week after that and they now still rent it every year.
A lake house, a boat (with tubes, water skis, wake boards etc.), and a group of kids is fun for everyone (except maybe the neighborhood curmudgeon). The kids will be completely wiped out by 9 PM every night and the adults can sit on the dock until really late and watch the spectacular night sky while sipping tasty beverages. At least that's how it worked out for us. Man, sometimes I wish my adult offspring were still kids...
