30 years ago we bought a 2 acre piece with 250' of lake frontage Lake was about 65 acres, great fishing and swimming, only 250 miles from home. Checked all the township info before purchase for what I wanted to use it for and was good to go. We used it like your talking for about 6 years. We use to leave the trailer there most of the summer. Then we arrived one weekend to use the trailer we found a big red tag on the door. Red tag said in violation of township ordinance. We used it that weekend and on Monday I went to the township with tag in hand. Come to find out a new township supervisor was in charge. He had moved there from a big city. He took it upon himself to tag several trailers on places such as ours and small lake cottages that he didn't think belong there. Long story short he had no legal backing to do it. As the kids got older they didn't want to go there any longer and the wife and I sort of felt we needed to visit other places so we sold it after 15 years and moved on. It did end up being a good investment.
