Abeys Lake
Surrounded by nature
Median $221K·Walkability 2.0/10·Schools 4.7/10
Out here, the lake itself is the whole draw—Camp Lake sits right at the edge, offering water access that doesn't require a trek. The nearest county sports park is a short walk away, so if you're the type who actually uses those facilities, it's convenient. A grocery run or coffee trip means heading a few miles down the road, which is fine when you're choosing this stretch for the land and the water, not for walkable errands. You're looking at roughly 67 minutes to downtown if the city calls, but that's not really why anyone moves to 200-some acres of lake country. The isolation is deliberate.
