DH lived about 70k from the city on a property that was boat access only. A hike and a tin-boat ride to school......

He looks back on it with joy, and I know he and his siblings wouldn't have traded it for anything. We all love going to his parents: it is an idylic spot, totally inconvenient, huge steep hill, no roads, water access only, but blissfull.

Not sure if that helps?
