Beach house vs lake house

Anonymous
I'd want a lake house in the Adirondacks or Vermont.

I don't have both.

Not so much an issues in the northern states where the best lakes are.

+1 my dream is an Adirondack lake house, but it’s too far away to be practical. I’d never buy a lake house in the mid-Atlantic.

They're not even real lakes!!

In real life I don't have enough time off to make a lake or beach house worthwhile, so in this fantasy I'd just be able to summer there.

Lake house in the Catskills.

Nothing is better than that. Water is drinking quality, lake is private.

No sand. No salt. Just beauty.

Lakes have snakes.

Have you googled the water quality in your favorite lake? It’s eye opening. Is it within 5-10 miles of a farm? If so, the fertilizer and pesticides are found in the lake. Dairy farm? Enjoy the poopy lake. Even the clearest lakes are shockingly dangerous given all the toxins.

PS - Man made lakes are usually the worst.

Beach x 100.
Lake water seems murky and slimy.

I’d never get a lake house down here.

But we love our lake house on a crystal clear, glacier-carved lake in New England.

It’s similar to Lake Willoughby in VT.

That’s why I have a lake house in Northern Maine that is only accessible by sea plane. There are a lot of lake homes away from farms in Maine and the Adirondacks.

The ocean is full of medical waste, pollution and human feces.

So are lakes.

The difference is the ocean is massive and moves the problematic toxins away while lakes just absorb them.

Even the cleanest lakes up north periodically have toxic blooms. Google your favorite lake to pull water quality reports and don’t forget to do a google news search.

Or just have a pool at your beach/lake house for actual swimming.
