    Hi Denis,

    The lake seems to be called 'Green Lake'.

    The text is probably in Danish and says something about the boat to the left and the lock right of it.

    There is a Green Lake (Rotokakahi) in New Zealand.
    The surroundings show a certain resemblance with your card, but I'm absolutely NOT sure this is the right place.

    Best regards,

    Thanks a lot. I had not seen that the mention GREEN LAKE was written on the card (it's not obvious). And since I found that card in a lot of British Columbia (Canada) lot, I would tend to think that it coul be the Green Lake located in Provincial Park bearing the same name. Thank you.

    Hi Denis,

    Green Lake (British Columbia) seems to be a good contender.

    See below:
    - Green box: the mountains that could correspond with your card.
    - Red box: the 'harbor' that could correspond with your card.

    Best regards

    Hi Denis,

    I'm from Belgium, so I don't know the Green Lake first handed (had to do some research online).

    Best regards,

    I don't know where Green Lake is, but the text is in danish and says.

    The boat to the left on the picture is on a place just below the house, where I fetch milk every evening.
