Finding an excellent lake house takes time and patience. It's not good enough to just find a nice house on a lake, as crazy as that sounds. How is the waterfront? Do you have unfettered access to it? Is it deep and clear, rocky, sandy or weedy? Is the property prone to flooding? What about the well and sewage systems? Is it winterized? Was it constructed for year-round use? Is it accessible year-round? Who clears the road and at what cost? Is there a cottagers or home-owners association? Can you build a bunkie or is there one? Can you install a permanent or seasonal dock?
