    Default Need help finding a new lake house Please


    Long story short, just found out my wifes mother sold the 'family' lake house (in Soap Creek) to the other side of the family because the other side didn't want to share it. Well her mom can't deal with conflict of any kind and immediately folded without telling any of the siblings that she had sold it. Before my wifes grandpa died last year he told me that he was leaving the lakehouse to his two daughters so ALL his grandkids and great grandkids could continue to enjoy the lake and the family memories. So much for his request I guess.....

    With that said, I've decided I want to continue taking my kids to the lake (that they love) and create new family memories. If anyone knows of any lake front property for sale at a good price, with or without a house, please let me know. Most interested in anything between Gravois, Laurie, Rocky Mount etc etc. Thanks!

    Very true. When I get back from this darn deployment, some people have some serious explaining to do...

    Just me maybe, but I wouldn't waste my time with explanations because these people knew exactly what they were doing. Move on, move forward.....if it were me, I think I would get completely away from that bunch.....different lake? different arm of the lake?

    You're right - some I will allow to explain because I HAVE to, the others will just get a severe tongue lashing as my final words to them. Ever. If they didn't want to share, then they should GTFO. It is what it is I guess. What's done is done at this point...

    Sounds like you kinda got the short end of the stick, but in the long run I bet it works out for you, the good guy always win. Good luck to you.

    Key to this is - It is an In-Law Deal. Up to your wife to deal with her family. Maintain a low profile and move on to a new place of your own elsewhere. Smile a lot. Less B.S., hate, discontent, stress. No immediate gratification from confronting the offenders but MAJOR gratification knowing you no longer have to deal with those who caused the heartburn. You can invite who you want to YOUR place and NOT invite those you don't want.
    Take your time and look around a lot, you'll find what you want.
    Just sayin' after 43 years of marriage.

    I agree with Vic.
    If there is that much discontent you will be better off without them.

    Jack Stevens that owns slab buster jigs has his place up for sale. Not exactly sure where it is but I know he is close to the dam and has a dock.
