Dear Anon,

1. Besides the layout plan; another most important element is the flow of qi - into the house.

2. if there is a relatively clean / unpolluted lake, often, this is a plus point for various reasons.

3. A lake, close-by will often have another `secret' weapon in Feng Shui: trees and plants. And often, with such ecology; it will sustain life (animals or insects). And in many countries, some of these lakes are water catchment areas.

4. Thus, it may not be unnecessarily bad for a lake.

5. Sometimes, if our house has a patio or deck facing the lake; it may mean that this could instead be the frontage of the house.

6. Please note that not two situations are similar and each location / house has to be looked at in it's own merits.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
