So, there we sat, two idiots in a car on the side of the road. In front of us, an iconic road sign exclaiming “Paradise Shore!” in bright colors. The campgrounds are nice, but they make it sounds like the Bahamas. The vibe is more like a wooded nature reserve, with cottages and cabins dotted around. Lots of evergreens, pine needle covered soil, beaver dams, lakes and islands, small docks protruding from tiny beaches tucked between rock outcrops and wetlands. You have deer, all kinds of tiny rodents and mammals, the occasional black bear, lots and lots of bugs (especially at night), and plenty of fish to catch for the DIY-inclined.
For years our family had used the same lake house perched among the wooded hills: a homely three-room cabin with a small kitchen, a decent sized seating area, and not much else. It stood between two copies of itself in a row along a beach, with a single dock and a boat ramp. A comfy, humble vacation spot for the summer. It was this refuge we were seeking. Sofia stared at a paper map my dad had given to us, while I looked at Google Maps. Beyond the sign, the road split, one path shooting the left, the other off to the right. Over the years lots of renovation of the area had been done, and we were used to a different road into the grounds. We didn’t know which way to go.
