The Magical Pocono Forest - Camelot Forest Conservation Community That Is!

Up the northeast extension of the Pa Turnpike exit 95 or not too far off of Interstate 80 exit 284 sits the little town of Blakeslee, PA. Anchored by a few markets, stores and even restaurants and pubs and tucked away just minutes from Jack Frost Ski Resort and Jack Frost National Golf Course, this quaint little town consists of a few Pocono "Lake Communities". One such community here is Camelot Forest Conservation Community located right off of Rte 940.
A conservation community is dedicated to the protection and preservation of their natural resources including their own on going eco-systems and the consistent upkeep of the natural landscape of the area. Camelot Forest is a smaller low key community with two lakes, a 14 acre and a 12 acre lake, one clubhouse and tennis courts. The community is served by public sewers and the roads are maintained by the local township but once inside you are lost in its beauty. Tall Trees abound around every corner with properties averaging .75 to 1 full acre in size. With it's close proximity to Jack Frost, Split Rock and Big Boulder (approx. 3 miles) , Camelot Forest has become a more popular destination for those Pocono Home buyers seeking lower dues and a more low key atmosphere with great location to everything.

An Informational Blog or a Bunch of Listings - Which Would You Prefer?

In the town of Pocono Lake this site actually ranks Realtors according to how many Blogs they post. My question is "Would you, the reader want to read relevant information about your community or see what listings a real estate agent has sold recently or even what they have for sale currently?"

Seems to me that since You Can Always See EVERYTHING that is Currently on the Market in Arrowhead Lakes Just By Clicking Here, that you would like much more than that. Since Active Rain's ranking statistics don't differentiate from the art of a skillful blog and the art of 'copy and pasting', there will always be a ranking system that is deceiving to the Active Rain Consumer. In other words, being ranked #1 on Active Rain doesn't necessarily mean you are the top Blogger just that you are really great at 'copying and pasting' your listing activity to a Blog Spot and receiving credit for 10 second of work rather than a thoughtful and honest Bloggy Doooo!

I mean to be quite honest if it is Pocono Mountain Listings you are looking for you can even see ALL LAKEFRONT HOMES FOR SALE and even still ALL GAMELAND PROPERTIES FOR SALE simply by clicking the appropriate highlighted links!

An Ode to the North Arrow Drive Bear!

Ok Arrowhead Residents and Homeowners and potential future homeowners, this morning (Monday April 6) was the second monday in a row I found my self retrieving my trash can and cleaning up a mess of garbage strewn all over the place. I thought it must be a bear at first then my mind turned to the devious raccoons that I have battled wits with in the past and with the help a few COLD buckets of water was victorious in getting those sly garbage junkies to retreat in a wet panic and hadn't returned since.

As I drove down the road to take Molly to the bus stop though I noticed one of the Very Big and Very Heavy Wooden Trash bins that hold the trash cans for most of the part timers was completely turned over and his trash spewed about in much the same manner as my own. This is the second week in a row for both of us. I guess I didn't want to believe that a bear was so close but in reality I think that is what it was. It wouldn't have been the first time I have seen a bear in our direct Vicinity on North Arrow so close to the lake as my neighbor Anita had one peeping through her slider back to Autumn's ago.

I guess to confirm my suspicions I will have to camp out downstairs next Sunday night as Mr Bear approaches for Easter Dinner at the Cordisco Garbage Cans. Not sure what I will do but one thing for sure is I will get a picture for the followup to this blog. I am thinking we have to name him also. If anyone can think of a good "Bear Name" for a garbage rummager please pass it along to me. Till next time let me just say, keep your trash lids snapped tightly and if you live on North Arrow Drive keep me posted if you see him.
