Will was staying with his grandmother, might have had twin brothers
Mel (?) may have lived their year round. Her mother wasn't around. Lived with her dad and sisters (?). One of the later books in the series involved her meeting her distant cousin.

Mai | 1280 comments The Deer Lake Series by H.J. Lewis came up searching Worldcat. The first book is Summer of Change. The series seems to match your description!
The last book in the series is literally called Distant Cousin!

Thank you so much! You nailed it! I literally spent hours searching different combinations in Google. I can't wait to revisit it!

Worldcat.org comes in handy for searches like this! The advanced search lets you choose "juvenile" for children or YA books and also narrow it down by a range of years.

Happy re-reading!
