As a kid, I summered just a few doors down from the Brookline Cottages, and am pleased to report the property offers a wondrous vibe decades in the making. The screen doors, the cribbage board coffee table, the woodwork -- everything said "chill here." Big ups to Liz, my responsive host. The beach was steps away, with kayaks and other amenities at your fingertips. Plus, the "neighbors" -- mostly owners from what I could tell --were quite welcoming, to the point where one generous gent took me on a pontoon boat ride, during which we traded stories of summers past. As I think of it, the lake isn't the only thing that's fluid here. So is time itself.
