installing a french drain to redirect the water to a place where it wont harm anything else would be the best bet.

Since the flooding is at the lowest spot on the lot grade, the safest place to redirect the water is uphill (6 foot higher than the low spot). There in lies the challenge on how to get the water to the lake side (high side) of the lot by using natural means or drainage. Mechanical pumps are an option, but since I don't live there permanently, it is the less ideal solution.
ya I gathered that by the photo but its a prmanant soultion , would just take some work and could be expensive if you cant do it your self.
if its only once and a while then a pump could work but you have to be there to pump it, but probably the cheepest way.
