You need to set up each location's cameras on a different email account and then share them back and forth with the Grant Access feature. 

In other words, the husband's email account could handle the home's cameras under his email account and the wife's email account could handle the Lake's cameras. Then grant access from the system at home to the system at the lake and vice versa.

That being said, don't forget to remove the base and cameras to be moved to the second account first. The new account would be set up as a new system. And, although both people will be able to see all the cameras in their app, the systems will be have to be armed separately and to make any changes in the systems, the primary account holder, (the email address that those cameras are attached to), must log into that account t make changes.

It might be more convenient just to upgrade your subscription.

Thanks Brian for your help. Just 1 other question. Will we each have 2 Arlo apps? Or will we just use 1 app?

You will each download the latest app that is appropriate for your smart phone. If account1 grants access to account2 and account2 grants access back to account1, everyone will see all 6 cameras. The primary account holder will have to log into the appropriate account to make changes in the settings.
