summer homes
Seasonal lakeside retreats
Summer homes are secondary residences used primarily during warm weather months, typically located near beaches, lakes, or mountains.
The term implies wealth—owning property beyond one's primary residence: Their summer home on the Cape has been in the family for generations.
Also called summer houses or vacation homes.
