Default Keep it Simple

Winniboy,
Don't be discouraged by all the above posts. I commend you for your industriousness.
Personally, I would love to show up at our cottage in Meredith and not have to mow the lawn before we even get settled in. I bet many of our neighbors in our association would feel the same way too. I think if you keep it simple...mowing lawns, general yard cleanup...and maybe a few simple chores, you would be kept busy.
Nothing against all the professional advice from the pros in the business, but I would guess that most of them started out the same way. When I need a pro, I wouldn't hesitate to call any one of them, but I would love to find an ambitious young person who is willing to help out with doing some of the chores I just don't want to have to do up there every week.
Good luck to you, and keep us posted.
