Anyone live in the city and have a second place on a suburban lake? Curious about the experience, do you use it often? Is it worth it?

I live in the city but do not have a second place on a suburban lake. If you would like to sponsor, I can experience it and provide an honest review.

I don’t have a place but my parents do and it’s amazing! Definitely seems like a good option to me

What do you consider a suburban lake? I usually hear about people going to their lake houses in Wisconsin.

Yeah, Lake Fox and Lake Geneva are the ones I’m aware of, but I’m sure there are others. Ideally within 1-1.5 hour drive.

Has anyone else gone back to relying more on public transportation with the surging Uber / Lyft prices. Trips to and from ohare are costing me about as much as the plane tickets themselves, and even simple things like meeting a friend for dinner in another neighborhood ends up costing around $80 in transportation costs. I haven’t taken buses and trains much since I’ve graduated but now it just feels like I’m throwing money out the window by not making the switch back.
