We bought our camp in 2007. It was a tin can, you had to hold your breath to go inside. As far as dumps go it was up there. As they say, location, location, location. My wife's parents have the place next door. We spend most weekends here from May to December.

I gutted it and added a loft on top. New siding and a few extra touches.

Single best improvement 12x24' covered patio. I keep all my hunting close under here, they never go inside. No matter the temp this is where I strip down to my undies.
This is where we hang all summer, fire pit on right cooker on left.

We try to get up for some winter fun

Until the snow really hits. Then we crash at nana and papas as our place is not kept cleared. I believe this pic was the middle of March.
