It’s that laid back, come on in feel you get the minute you lay eyes on the lakeshore.
As I was writing this post I was reminded of the reason why so many of us claim our best childhood memories at the lake. And it’s not because of the perfect gourmet kitchens our grandmother’s had or our childhood best friend’s magazine worthy living rooms.
Lake homes are about the outdoors. The sunsets, the dock jumping, the boating, the nights around a campfire.
So while this post does include some inspiring interior photos, it primarily hones in on the natural elements of lake home living and the inspiring moments it gives us.

The heart of the home is still the kitchen even, and maybe especially, at the lake. These family friendly, homey kitchens are sure to make you feel right at home.
There’s always that room that makes you want to curl up with a good book and a fresh cup of coffee. Here are a few inspiring me to do just that!
Is it against the law to have a lake house without a swing? It should be!

We spend enough time in front of our computers and keeping a schedule. Let the lake be a place to step away, get outside and slow down.
