This end of the lake is pretty sparsely populated.  There are about 100 homes on this 200 acre section.  Nine on my street.

How many of the 100 or so homes are lake front property?   Just to get a better "image" of the neighborhood.

Your place does look Idyllic.

There are a few hundred homes total, lakefront and a “view”.

Idyllic views and 150 ft of sea wall frontage but the house is only 700 sq ft on about 1/3 acre.

Do a satellite shot of the reservoir and you’ll see we’re in the “sticks” for a northern CT location.  I lived in CT for twenty years and didn’t know this pond existed until I found this house. 

We weren’t looking for lakefront but we got lucky..  the owner just gutted the house and rebuilt literally everything!

Had to throw a toe in for Hazcat...

Har. Har.  I had forgotten that.  Old Hazcat...he really brought some life to this board.

Now, as for that nasty toe of yours...I had to snip it out....   :o

I got some new digs too...as of last Friday.  No water, no bikinis...not a lot of people either:  https://www.google.com/maps/place/Lost+Corner,+AR+72080/@35.5677932,-92.8380811,947m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x87cdc0e1387d786d:0x1915b3532a93ea9c!8m2!3d35.5717459!4d-92.8340563

No new digs for me, but if you go to this address and zoom in all the way you can see on the satellite view a place I used to pass by. It's on a two track road on the way in to the family cabin in Northern Michigan (capital "N", way, way up north). The regular shapes on the ground are the remains of foundations from an old CCC camp built in 1933, the first one in Michigan. It took me a few decades to find out German POWs were held there during WWII. The cabin is 5 miles or so farther down the road but I can't see it anywhere. The culvert was torn out and replaced by a bridge. Then the bridge was torn out and I'm not sure exactly where the new road in starts.
