STR Lakes Near Dallas? Best ones?

[Alan Ford]

Hi friends - selling one of my STRs in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlingburg area - mainly to take advantage of the silly prices at the moment ($300+ per sqf) - If I can get my asking price - I’ll do it.

I would also like to have a lake home investment as I 1031 exchange out of this property.

I may be moving to Texas - I can work remote so anywhere within an hour or two of Dallas is fine.

I see a ton of lakes on the map in and around Dallas. Any of these lakes good for STR if it's an actual lake front home with dock etc?

Would love some recommendations.

Thanks
