From relaxing evenings by the fire to fun-filled days on the water and quiet afternoons in the shade, lake houses have everything you could want in a vacation home: hiking, fishing, canoeing, swimming, or napping. Where locally sourced antiques decorate rooms, well-worn books and board games stand ready to be plucked off shelves, and yards lead to docks tied with rowboats.
Lake House takes you on a lush tour through fifteen private homes in the U.S. and Canada while celebrating the deep-rooted connections the families have to the residence and the surrounding community. Discover The Boat House in Northern Michigan, which was designed to look like a ship's hull with interiors that take advantage of every square foot. On Lake Superior sits Yond Cottage, an all-season home with a color palette reminiscent of the rugged shoreline. And on Loon Lake in New Hampshire, where no speedboats are allowed, you’ll find a previously abandoned house, saved and refurbished by its current owners with a minimalist design to be a peaceful retreat for family and friends.
Throughout, Christine Chitnis features enchanting stories and a diversity of architectural styles, including cozy cottages, wood-clad cabins, and modern farmhouses. These homes are serene retreats for the families that enjoy them—making Lake House a beautiful tribute to the waterfronts that shape our own lives and the enduring love and nostalgia we hold for them.
