No matter the time of year, it’s always exciting to pack up the car and head to the lake house for the weekend. There’s just something about cozying up and relaxing with a lake in plain sight—it’s a Midwest thing.
After all, the Midwest is known for its lakes. There are thousands in the region and a few great big ones, too. And Minnesota isn’t lacking in their count of the blue beauties—the state’s lakes provide about 45,000 miles of lake shoreline, plenty of ideal space for your lake house getaway.
Here are a few inspiring Midwest lake houses with siding that’ll make you feel so protected you’ll just want to sit back and relax and enjoy the lakeside view:
