Told the wife I'd like to start looking for a weekend lake house or cottage.
Thanks - Great infoRule #1 - no more than 2 hours drive for a weekend lake house. Far away enough you’re away from home, close enough it’s not a pain to drive to most weekends. Any further and most likely you’ll hardly go. Hope you find something great.

We used to go to Lake James in NE Indiana for a week for like 20 years and it was a th 2 hour mark. Just far enough, but not too far. Some friends would go to Cumberland but the 6 hour drive.....ugh.
Now I live 140 pace from a lake and 2.5 miles from my boat dock.
Oh the welfare lifestyle.
Thanks - Great info
Her reply was Typical - "Why, I really don't think we need to "
2 hours later - "Where are you thinking and How Big"
I told her - 2 to 3,000 SF would work and if it doesn't have a Huge garage for Boats / Kayaks / Jet skis - we can add that !
We would get Sharkey's Pizza the first evening and the rest of the time we cooked out own. Steak day. Chicken day. Burger day. Fish fry end of the week from our catch.LOL
have you been to Caruso's ? over by Crooked
I haven't figured out what to do. I enjoy the big vacations and owning another property seems like work.
Nice, son and I did 150 rounds each. Had to pay .60 for 9mm this month. Yikes!The bad:. No boating this weekend.
The good: squeezed off around 500 rounds this weekend so all in all...a good day!
The ugly:. Rain and mud while shootin'...

A group I joined allows me to shoot for free so i don't.mind putting a lot of rounds down range. Coulda fired hundreds more but didn't want to pick up more brassNice, son and I did 150 rounds each. Had to pay .60 for 9mm this month. Yikes!
Good deal, picking up brass is part of it. Glad you had a good time.A group I joined allows me to shoot for free so i don't.mind putting a lot of rounds down range. Coulda fired hundreds more but didn't want to pick up more brass

concur.2-3000sq ft? Yikes. You know things got to be cleaned, right? It's "vacation?" Vacation house for me, 6-900sqft. 1-2 BR, shower/hot tub with a view, connected kitchen and living space. Porch. Dock.
Foolishly back in the day, I didn't follow through on a buy in upstate NY on a leveled spring fed deep water finger lake. Could have used it year round but in my young mind, saw payments. Stupid young EIB, stupid. If you find something with location grab it. If the structure is not what you want, guaranteed you'll be able to fix or sell and buy up. It's all about location.

Dad coming home did it for me. That grass, one acre, better be cut. Sometimes he would pull in and I would be cutting. He grinned and walked in house. No talkn till I was done.
I was a little slow sometimes, so my Mom had already sent me to get a switch before it had dawned on me i was choosing the weapon of my own demise.Dad coming home did it for me.
