And the more homes that are built this way, the worse it gets. Locals are being priced out of their own areas.

Jmen, while I agree with you 110% on the property discussion, I think this thread was directed more for those coming here to vacation not to build or buy land / develop it.
The original poster was getting a sense of an overall tone of the lake due to recent legislation whether that be SL, Rafting or Limits on public ramps. These issues from an outsider point of view has begun to portray NH as un-friendly or un-welcoming. We really need to make sure people don't feel this way or perceive NH this way for it could have catasrophic results.
