I absolutely love being on the water. I go to my lake house nearly every weekend in the summer. Obviously the numbers don't work that well, but it is so much nicer to cruise up to the house on friday night, sleep in on saturday and be on the water all day than it is to wake up at the crack of dawn on saturday morning and tow the boat to the lake. We did that for 3 years and we started looking for a house almost immediately. We have had our house on Brown's Lake in Burlington, WI for 3 years now. It is about 1.5-2hrs away from you in Naperville Souk, same as it is for us in Batavia.
While I said I love being on the water, I think it would be relatively boring to have a cruiser. You go out, set the anchor, maybe put around the lake a little bit, nap in the sun. Its a great way to spend a day, but I would much rather spend the day skiing and tubing behind a 21-24ft wakeboard/ski boat. I think your kids would as well. The question to me becomes do your want your kids to enjoy the water, or to enjoy watersports? I feel the latter is infinitely more fun.
