Rhode Island's landscape includes hundreds of freshwater lakes and ponds covering 20,749 acres that creates some of the most beautiful lakefront houses and land for sale in the east. Named as ponds, lakes or reservoirs, these water bodies provide multiple recreational opportunities, important aquatic habitat, and an exciting new lifestyle for Rhode Island lakefront home owners. Reservoirs are a primary source of public drinking water supply for RI residents. 37% of the statewide lake acreage, are designated as public drinking water sources. This includes the state's largest man-made freshwater body, the Scituate Reservoir, which provides water to the Providence metropolitan region and many surrounding suburban communities. Lakes are widely distributed throughout the state and most are considered small - 70% are 50 acres or less in size. Only four exceed 500 acres - Watchaug Pond, Flat River Reservoir, also known as Johnson's Pond, Worden Pond and the Scituate Reservoir. Worden's Pond is the state's largest natural pond covering 1,051 acres. Rhode Island lakefront houses and land can range from $100,000 for a waterfront lot to just under $2 Million for a luxury lakefront home. Many of the Rhode Island lakes and ponds are fully recreational…meaning they allow power-boating. Other recreational activities would include fishing, swimming, kayaking, canoeing and winter ice-skating.

Good morning, My family bought a house on Highland Lake a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been meaning to send you a note of thanks. We attended your lake house buying seminar this year and the most valuable thing we learned was to write a personal letter to the seller. I remember writing down “tug at heartstrings” and we had a story that would do just that. A $3 Etsy letter template and our story got us this house. The sellers didn’t even show it to anyone else, even though they had a full slate of bookings to show it. They took our offer of $100 over asking price. So, thank you for that invaluable tip. I’ve attached the letter below in case you want to see it. Also, I needed to write to sing Ed Richman’s praises. First of all, what a great guy. Secondly, he’s an awesome agent. He walked us through the whole process step by step and went above and beyond when dealing with a challenging issue with the bank. I cannot say enough good things about him. I know this is just his retirement gig, but for your sake, I hope he doesn’t truly retire anytime soon! Thanks again and have a great day!

With LakefrontLiving.com, it takes me 30 seconds to locate any home matching my needs...and the detailed lake pages help me zero in on my dream location.”

“The best part about LakefrontLiving.com sites is that they display DIRECT lakefront property only... from the entire MLS database.
I grew tired of finding homes online that were across the street or only had lake rights. What a time saver!”

“Having The Lake Team represent my lakefront home sale turned out to be a wise decision.
Using several marketing techniques to directly expose my property to thousands of lakefront buyers got it sold quickly and for top dollar.
Thanks for your help.”

Spent the first weekend in my new Lake House and attended a BBQ sponsored by the lake association. All my neighbors welcomed me and made me feel very much at home. Felt bad about leaving on Sunday night. Thanks again to Terri Godin for making my dream a reality.

Hello Scott, I just wanted to write in regard to our experiences with Ed Richman. We closed on a property in North Stonington, CT yesterday and couldn't have been happier with the quality of service that we received from Ed. He was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was incredibly professional, helpful and responsive. He always made us feel like a priority. I have previously worked with other agents and wasn't nearly as impressed. I would highly recommend him to friends and family. I wanted to make a point to reach out to you to share our thoughts. Lakefront living, both the website, and staff were incredibly helpful in making our dream of owning a lakefront home a reality. Thank you so much.
