The water is owned by everyone and homeowners need to accept that when buying—especially those who buy in front of a sandbar or other popular place.
That being said, there's a balance to be had both ways in terms of respect.

I remember back in the 1960s when no one knew about that Sandbar in Braun Bay. It seems to me that people just found it by accident and started going there as people were looking for a place to anchor that was not in front of someone else’s house. It started out with just a handful of boats and I don’t think anyone could have anticipated that it would get so huge.
At some point, was this designated as a public sandbar? I don’t remember anything ever being said about it.
I’m sure that at least some of the homes that have to put up with this congestion have been there long before this became a destination.
I certainly agree that anyone purchasing a home on the lake now needs to do their due diligence. But many of those homeowners have been there for a long time.
