Hello Home Exchangers 
Is there a way to search for region and environment? For instance, my family loves USA, east coast, lakefront homes with good fishing and ideally a row boat /kayak at the home for any weeks in the summer. Any tips to conduct this kind of search is much appreciated! Bonus = if I’m searching for this from someone who has a home that fits that lake house profile who loves to explore NYC (I’m in a prime location in Brookyln, NY). That would be a perfect city mouse/country mouse situation…but how to find it? Thank you.
Hello. You don’t have for now a feature to search like this with “keywords”. You Can search with the “lake” filter to have a first view, then use the reverse search to find those wanting to come to New York. Not precisely what you would like but that’s a start.

You search the area you want and then use filters for lake or beach. However I don’t think you can do say the entire east coast for this. You probably have to choose a town.
