My dad retired at 62 and sold his house in the city and moved to the lake. Lived there for 18 years until his health gave out. I didn't think I would want to follow in his footsteps, but I am thinking about doing it. Anyone have any advice, good or bad?
I am not retired, but have this:

My advice has more to do with the health side of things: If you have health issues, make sure that there are facilities around that can deal with anything that comes up, or be prepared (and willing) to drive a long ways for your health care.
Unfortunately, the quality and level of care in the US (heck, probably everywhere on earth) is VERY geographical.
