I am hoping I can get some good info here. I currently live in Maryland and will be retiring in the next three years. I love the Eastern Shore of Maryland with all of the fishing and hunting, but it gets really remote to be at all affordable. That concerns me as my wife and I age. I am looking for somewhere on the water. I don't mind if I have neighbors, as long as I have enough property to put up a good size pole barn to keep my boat(s) 4 wheelers and such in. I would like to be close enough to others so if I kick the bucket, my wife can stay in the house and have people to socialize with, check on her etc. What lakes should I look at? What areas to avoid? Plan on taking a few road trips to Knoxville/Nashville area to check things out. I would also like to be a reasonable distance to a Hospital, movies, restaurants, grocery stores etc. I know, I am looking for a lot. I am just trying to get pointed in the right location to begin my search. Also enjoy waterfowl and deer hunting if that is any good in the area. Thanks
