Wish I did it sooner! Bought a place in Southdown 12 years ago, sold that and moved to the neibghboring community of Long Bay and had a house built. I'm not on the water but close enough,to walk to my boat and beaches and or take my Golf Cart. Family, friends love it.
Previous to buying a place we traveled back and forth for years to the lake from southern NH to our boat on the Big Lake. Only regret I wish I bought 10 years earlier when prices were lower..
Is it practical for me financially with 2 houses and taxes? NO. But LIFE IS SHORT. If things don't work out I can always rent it (don't want to do that) and pay my expenses but so far no need..
I pulled the trigger and bought, the best decision I made for me and the family & my 11 year old loves the place, thinks it's normal for people to have a lake place but she is learning not everyone does and that we are very forunate.
