Welcome to B Lakeside, your ultimate guide to Lakeside Living,  where we embark on a journey through the communities, picturesque landscapes, and curated experiences that define lakeside life. This blog has been a passion project, born out of my relentless pursuit of lakeside living and the desire to share authentic stories that resonate with real people.

When lakeside living became a remote possibility, I would spend HOURS searching everything I could about the communities surrounding the lakes. I wanted to know if it was a place worth vacationing or if it could be a full-time reality. I wanted to know how it would rank on the “Hallmark Scale” 

And that is my exact vision for this B Lakeside, I’m thrilled to share with you the inspiration behind B Lakeside and set the tone for the curated experiences, outdoor adventures, and explore the charming lakeside communities that await you in the upcoming posts.

Curating Your Lakeside Narrative

You know the last 20 minutes of  Christmas Hallmark movies where everything aligns perfectly? The woman falls back in love with her high school sweetheart and the Family’s business goes from failing to thriving. Even if you don’t like Hallmark movies, you know what I am talking about. It’s that moment where you smile because everything just works out and people are blissful.

That’s the curated magic we strive for at B Lakeside. Think of Kiel James Patrick Instagram account. I consider his photography and the stories he tells through the beautiful photos a curated masterpiece. Our goal is to guide you through thoughtful lakeside adventures, transporting you to the very essence of these towns.

B Lakeside explores communities, homes, unique shops, eateries, and outdoor wonders, serving as your guide to experiencing the Hallmark-esque charm of lakeside life. 

Get Out and See Something

I took the biggest financial risk of my life, because of my wholehearted belief in the power of being outdoors. As a former summer camp kid and counselor (shout out to Camp Chingachook, literally the best gift my parents ever gave me) I want my family to live a life motto of “Get Out and See Something”.

Embracing the spirit of getting outdoors, B Lakeside embodies the belief in the transformative power of nature. A key pillar of this blog will be dedicated to just that, “getting out and seeing something”. Showcasing outdoor opportunities, from waterfalls to islands, whether you’re a lakeside resident or a visitor. Nature is a central player in the lakeside lifestyle, and B Lakeside is your compass for celebrating, exploring, and sharing the outdoor wonders surrounding lakeside communities.

Capturing Local Magic

My love for lakeside communities is no secret, and I invite you to fall in love with the unique charm and character found in these locales. B Lakeside is committed to showcasing the individuality of each town, becoming your go-to resource for planning vacations or contemplating a lakeside lifestyle change. When you read B Lakeside, immerse yourself in the lake communities we feature, capturing the local magic that makes each town special.
