These condos are not behind any gate or guardhouse, I'm guessing you're confusing them as being inside part of the Meredith Bay area?

Anyway, personally I like the "guardhouse" idea for a vacation home. It helps to cut down on casual drive-bys and access to properties that are unoccupied the majority of the time.

Island properties are cool, but for me I like to be able to use our lake place year-round and not deal with septic systems and lack of access to utilities (eg: power and internet that can be problematic on some island properties).

It's cool if it's not for you, it takes all kinds.
