Have a place just north of Barrie, hate the traffic, and although I am a gardener I have one rose bush there that I hate, and the lake near my place has a dirty filthy shore. Gonna get rid of it. Will use the proceeds to spend more time with the beautiful ladies from this board and some cold beer.
I’m the opposite. My trailer is amazing. She is old but in a nice rustic way. She has been painted, have new furniture and stuff. All the comforts of home.
Huge garden with every different type of perennial. Only have to weed it as it is an established garden.
The lake is awesome. My park owner rakes the bottom and adds sand for a proper beach. We have two. One for people and one for dogs.
Boat and dock are right there as well so it makes fishing easier. Just hope in and go. Fishing is amazing. Walleye, brass, perch and my fav - Muskie. Looking to beat my record of 4 1/2 feet this year but I doubt I will. That one was a monster, I did share the pic around here somewhere .
It is only 1hr 15 mins away from me on side roads so little traffic annoyances on the way.
camp fires, bbqing, having friends and family gather, watching the clear glass water as I kayak …. So many great things.
It just goes to show, you have to find the right place that works for everything for you personally and that is hard sometimes. Just having a cottage or trailer is not always ideal and for some, the “novelty” can wear off.
