With the state of the economy, I am afraid we will be seeing more sites for sale than ever. At the same time, like all real estate, it is the prime time to buy if you can afford it. Lake Adventure is a relatively affordable way to have a ‘vacation’ or ‘second’ home. This should be the type of community (as with some condo and co-op residences) that there is a waiting list to get in – not over 100 sites for sale!

There seems to be a total lack (or at least, very little) of good PR or marketing about Lake Adventure. Yes, it does cost money for any kind of advertising but as the saying goes: you have to spend money to make money. It doesn’t take a lot to get started. For example, all the t-shirts, sweatshirts, jackets and any other promotional items LACA sells with the name Lake Adventure on it should also include who we are and where we are. Just seeing “Lake Adventure” means nothing to a stranger. Seeing “A Campground Resort” located in “Lords Valley, PA” might get a person’s interest. It doesn’t hurt to include a web address either! We have a lot of full color brochures of points of interest at the administration office. Have you ever gone anywhere and seen a general brochure about Lake Adventure and its amenities in a literature rack?

Many of the sites for sale are abandoned. Is it safe to assume that LACA now owns some of these sites? Haul out and junk the old, unuasable trailers for scrap metal. Then hire a couple of college students for the summer to work in the Maintenance Dept. for the sole purpose of cleaning up these sites and giving them the “curb appeal” they need to get sold! Clean out the leaves, dead brush and branches, spread a new coat of gravel on the pad. GET THEM SOLD!
