Default If your lake house is seasonal....

If you have a "winter" home somewhere else that has good local broadcast over-the-air antenna reception, you can do what I did.

I have a winter home that gets 26 channels on a large, old, in-the-attic antenna. I purchased a Tablo 4-channel DVR for that home that allows me to not only record everything I receive, but retransmit it to any smart TV in the house or stream over the internet to my lake house. We have about 6Mbps inbound to the lake house via Consolidated DSL. The Tablo records all the shows I want and can stream live broadcasts (such as the Patriots games) with no problem. I've achieved cut-the-cord Nirvana for both locations.
