NEWS FROM CAMP LIFE

Summer of Love ‘22 P.O. Box D Pocono Pines, PA 18350 570.807.4434

PUBLISHER Michael Dembinski GRAPHIC DESIGN Jeanne B. Daubner CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHERS Mark Luethi Steven Wallace

Dear Campers & Guests, Welcome to “The Summer of Love 2022” Edition of CAMP LIFE. There are a number of exciting real estate announcements coming to the lake: • Excellent news for anyone who dreamed of owning a lakeview property in Pinecrest Lake. “Camp Augusta” overlooks Pinecrest Lake, and is less then sand wedge distance from your deck to the waters edge. The property will be decorated in a vintage golfinspired theme, and will include all the fine touches and finishes you enjoyed at Camp Summer of ‘69, and Camp Naomi. Please contact Dembinski Realty Company, as August is the target date for one lucky family to start enjoying this 3 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath lake getaway. Make your first offer, your best offer!

• I know many are curious about the state of the real estate economy, and maybe wondering why homes aren’t moving within days like last summer. I think we are forgetting that homes are currently priced higher, and buyers expect homes to be in excellent movein ready condition to command these higher prices. If you are considering selling your home, it’s best to call our office for an honest evaluation of what your home is worth.

• Attention Lake Naomi Lakefront Owners: Should you be interested in selling your lakefront property directly, please feel free to call or email me. I would love to showcase your home as our next camp.

I wish everyone a low-key summer, full of being outside and enjoying life listening to Yacht Rock on Sirius Radio.

Sincerely,

Michael Dembinski 570.807.4434
