Yeah she certainly is... She's the best though, always on time, never a fuss, good swimmer, cheap date and doesn't worry about how she looks. If I could only get her to learn to back up the trailer she'd be perfect!
what lake is that?
Lake Gaston. It's my most favorite place in the world. It's getting pretty busy now that rich people have discovered it. They're coming in and buying up everything and building massive houses everywhere. Used to be the common man's lake. Now it's a mini lake Norman.
Seems like around any decent lake it's going that way.
What creek are you on? Our place is on the main lake west of I-85 between MM 25 & MM 26. Still a quiet part of the lake, but the wake boats are finding it is a good place to find calm water.
I live in charlotte and prefer Lake Wylie over Norman for the same reason.
That's my buddies house that they've had for about 20 years. Their cove is near Grandma's Island. It used to be called something else, but that appears to be the most recent name. The vids were near Washburn's, aside from the drone vids at his house. Their cove is probably closer to MM2 off the main lake.
Know it well. I have friends on Pretty Creek (MM 4) and we go out to the dam with them all the time.
That's very much a haul. I have another friend that has a house out near the railroad bridge. I think MM 23 or 24, but have yet been out there. I've been to shady shack a bunch, but haven't been this year. That's the furthest west I've been. Been coming up to this place for years. Rented a place around the corner from watersview (by boat) in 2020, can't recall the MM off the top of my head right now.
Yeah…..it’s people with money discovering the outdoor life since the Covid years and the so called “investment groups” buying the places up that used to be affordable for the purpose of being short term rentals like AirBnB or VRBO’s. We have a cabin at a small local ski hill that we could never afford again and get contacted about selling weekly. When or if this ends? Who knows.
I know what you mean. By boat, we have gotten as far as the Eaton Ferry Bridge to meet up with friends. Any further is hard.
