Samantha Saves the Day

In this story Samantha and the others go to another home they have for the summer and it's there that Samantha finds out how her parents died, which was in part of the lake that the home is right next to. Samantha also finds a book of sketches that her mother made and she decides that she wants to visit the island where her parents, and apparently her, once had a lot of fun.

Cornelia's two sisters go with here and at first they do have a lot of fun on the island but then the weather turns really bad, their boat floats away, and the Admiral, one of the people staying at the house, is injured trying to rescue the girls.

So now the girls must rescue both themselves and the admiral, meaning they will have to row a boat through a portion of the lake where Samantha's parents had been killed by drowning, going through the same type of storm that ended up killing her parents.

Another good book in the series, including the usual historical section.
