Cassie McCarthy spent every summer growing up at Bell Lake Meadows, a small lake house community situated in a beautifully peaceful forest on the East Coast. Cassie, once a reserved and anxious teenager, recounts the tales of how she grew to love life and find inner peace each summer at her little slice of heaven - Bell Lake. Love, trauma, friendship, risk, adventure: Bell Lake gave Cassie everything she needed to find her place in this world and become who the Universe always intended her to be.

From fairytale love to earth-shattering trauma, blissful summer afternoons and sleepless nights, Cassie reflects on her youth and captures some of life's most beautiful moments that helped her spark her inner flame and rise above the ashes.

***Summertime at Bell Lake captures raw & real stories from my youth. Some details have been changed / exaggerated for privacy & the sake of a good story, but the people, events, relationships, personalities, etc. are fully inspired by my true past & the lovely people in it***
