There's a bunch of small boat launch areas around the lake near posh residential areas which are generally boring but I found one with some land bridges to small islands out in the lake. Some of the rocks and trees remind me of images from Maine like jp posts here.
Here's two photos - made with a Rolleiflex "Old Standard" K2 w/ 7.5cm f/3.5 uncoated Tessar, Y2 filter, Plus-X, Rodinal:

I'd be happy photographing in a place like this... Not sure about plus-x (it's been a while since I used it), but I normally don't filter and I get smoother more predictable tones. I've tried filters and just can't predict what I'll get for tones, so I mostly don't use them unless the sky needs it. Just like human skin looks much different filtered, the natural world looks different too.
Lots of good subject matter in the scene, and I personally try to emphasize one item or create depth by narrower depth of field, careful background selection, tone or tone+texture differences between foreground items and background, etc...

Yeah, this Plus-X is getting a bit foggy, and the uncoated lens makes things a bit flat too. Of course Plus-X has been out of production for a while but I bought a few bricks (already expired) inexpensively when I needed some film and didn't have much cash. I actually have just one or two more rolls and I'm done with it, so I'm just using it up. I need to go back and shoot a bit more with some Acros I just bought, or a larger format.
I didn't know your tides were that drastic!
