it’s a fantastic lake and the people are awesome. Quasi secret spot for a long time only really known to performance boaters and people in the area. But like most things fantastico, everyone wants a piece. Good for local economy and real estate market there but maybe not so great for locals that are resistant to change. And more crowds.
either way, we’re looking forward to the rendezvous in June. I was actually on Zillow today looking at places to buy out there. Lol 😂😂

I’ve been keeping an eye on homes. Look at any house and the last sold price, they’re 40-50% higher since Covid. Shacks going for 400-500 that need complete remodeling - lake front of course.

At the end of the day, this keeps bringing me back regardless of how much things have changed recently.Plan to drive by Harper's Cove sometime this week to check out progress by land.

First came here in '77 and have not missed a year since '99. Way different lake than it was but you can't stop change/progress. Either I have to accept/embrace it or be the old man on the porch yelling at the kids to get off my lawn. At the end of the day, this keeps bringing me back regardless of how much things have changed recently.

Looks like the 08 or 09 lines at Lands End. We stay there almost every trip except Shootout. We stay at Camden then.
Go by and checkout our new spot. We are making great progress. I'll be back out on the 3rd for a day to see our builder. We are back for 5 days the 20th.

[QUOTE=thisistank;4863099] It's everywhere though. ESPECIALLY anywhere near water. We'll be buying a place in havasu in the very near future and the prices there are up seemingly 60-75% from 6 years ago. Crazy. Waiting for the adjustment to come.
remember 08 09 It coming, multiple offers on properties 20 40k plus over listing price, higher interest rates, these buyers will be buried in these properties for years, and when the income goes south with no equity in the property they will walk,

We did a VRBO a few years ago and stayed in the place your are at for the Waves and Wheels fun run. Its a great view and the weekend rental price was not bad at all, especially split between a few couples. Also the slips we had there were very reasonably priced. We wil be back this fall for the WW fun run and plan on staying there again.

We were down all weekend. Saw a few boats out besides the normal fisherman in bass boats. We didn't go to any of the regular waterfront hotspots, but we were down on the Strip for most of Saturday afternoon and was pretty busy.
