Making a camp into a year round place is not for the faint of heart. If it was going to be my residence I wouldn't do it.

However to use as a second home year round, there are many things that can be done. Yes you have to worry about plumbing, so of which is pretty easy to take care of just like when you have a mobile home. There are also great systems to pull water from the lake during the cold months.

I would like to get my seasonal camp to the point, that I am using until Thanksgiving and back up for easter. I have done the research, and know what needs to be done. Now to find the time and money.

But It will not be my residence, it will still be only used on the weekends and pretty limited in the colder months.

Think about things like heat tape etc. for the water lines....
