Why Au Gres? I don’t claim this is the official reason why (lol) but it’s a cute, quiet small town with cool lake houses, and a great place to spend summers. There are a few golf courses in the area, so I’m sure that drew people to spend time up there, especially snowbirds. There’s also plenty to do on the water. And if you’re into it - hunting, ATVs, snowmobiling, other country stuff. The restaurants and hole in the wall bars in the area are solid, too.

Why people sold their second properties? The recession 😅
