We have done that for five years, and we ended up not staying overnight on the boat(sleeps 4 comfortably), coming in early from on the lake so we wouldn't get home too late, then not coming up the next day because things needed to get done at home. We finally bought a new waterfront condo in Paugus Bay, the boat is docked steps away, we stay for the whole weekend, and make long weekends when possible, and enjoy and relax and wished we had done it sooner. Your idea is cheaper, but I think you will find you will regret it later. If that is what you can afford, you are still getting the chance to enjoy the lake and the area. We were at Mountain View Y/C, and the slip we had will probably rent out for 5k next season. The club was nice and they had everthing you would need as far as emenities. Good luck in your choices.
