Beginner Gardening: two waterfront cottages - one lot - how to create intimacy!!, 1 by menajen

View from the porch of the first cottage

I like the idea of a wooded lot, but as you can see part of the lot (on the left) is used to get to the second cottage closer to the lake.

I have about 22,000 square feet, and as you can tell from the pictures the lot is in a rectangular shape.


I don't want anything that requires much maintenance, to create privacy between the two cottages and would really like it to look more like the lot is in the middle of the woods, without cutting off the view of the lake.

Any help and visuals would greatly be appreciated. Feel free to use the pictures of the actual location so I can get the visual.
