I don't see it getting better in the future. Though we may have some short term downturns over the next decade... I suspect that property in the area will rise in value - and lake frontage will see the most rise in value.
With what I see every day... I suspect before I pass... all the little camps/cottages on the Big Lake - and most of the others - will be homes on the smallest lots permitted, with footprints as large as the lot will permit rising up with glass window walls toward the lakes as tall as the code will permit.

That's exactly what has happened in Hillsborough and Rockingham Counties. 200 acre ponds surrounded by tiny camos are now surrounded by year round homes and the taxpayers had to foot the bill to bring in sewer and water to ponds where they no longer have public access.
