I think that will work for the lake…but I’m worried it won’t be enough to support my primary residence. I’m internet dumb, so maybe it will be more than enough.

I have a starlink mini... it kinda depends. We are using it for when we use the RV. I am just getting the 50GB plan for $50. It works greats for what we need but I hear in our local area that at certain times the bandwidth is just shit. That is because my area is flooded with Starlinks after hurricane Helene.
Keep in mind, the Starlink mini is great for an RV because it is all encapsulated in that one small package but the wifi transmitter is very dumbed down. It doesn't cover a lot of area like the full size one does. If I was using it for my house I would probably have to use it as basically your "modem" and use some other equipment as your router/wifi.
Edit:
I tried playing some games that require low latency and it worked like shit. I was playing bf2042 and man... that was ****ing horrible. So if your kids play games that require low latency ehhh... I have not had good results but I am planning on trying it in other locations to see how it does. I heard you are supposed to be able to.
