Hello! My name is Colleen Scollon and I have been a resident of Lake Meade in South Central Pennsylvania for 14 years. Natives of Philadelphia, my husband and I relocated to the area with our children for a job change. Having spent most of our lives in the city, our move to Lake Meade was like being on a permanent vacation. We love that living in this area provides easy access to major cities while still being off the beaten path! After 20 years of teaching in elementary school I became a licensed PA REALTOR with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Homesale Realty. As an empty nester for the last five years, my time has been dedicated to helping others make the transition to the next place they will call home.
With so many people now working from home Lake Meade is the ideal place to LIVE, WORK AND PLAY! Lake Meade is a private gated community with approximately 1100 homes built around a nearly 300-acre lake. You do not need to live waterfront to enjoy all the amenities Lake Meade has to offer! Whether you prefer fishing, wakeboarding, tubing or just cruising the lake, there is plenty to do in and around the water. Lake Meade offers over 200 boat slips located throughout 10 recreation areas spread over five miles of shoreline, as well as a community pool with 2 diving boards, a two- turn slide, and a zero-entry area to cool off safely. In addition, there are 8 sand volleyball courts, several areas with playground equipment and basketball courts, a baseball field, a tennis/pickle ball court, and a community center all of which are maintained by the Property Owner's Association. There are NO additional fees for members using the community boat slips and the other amenities. The Lake Meade Community holds special events annually including an Egg Hunt organized by the scouts, a community yard sale, and a 4th of July Weekend Fireworks Display. For your safety, the Northeast/Adams Volunteer Fire & EMS Company is housed within the community.
The central location is a reasonable drive to the Pennsylvania cities of Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Hershey, Lancaster, and York, as well as Baltimore, Maryland, Arlington, Virginia and Washington, D.C. You can also easily travel by train to New York City, Washington DC, and Alexandria Virginia. The surrounding area plays host to the PA Farm Show each year and boasts several theaters and quality golf courses, some of the best fly fishing in the country at the Yellow Breeches Creek, Amusement Parks (Hershey park and Dutch Wonderland), the Harrisburg Symphony Orchestra, minor league baseball and hockey teams (Senators, Revolution, Bears), skiing (Ski Roundtop is less than an hour away), museums, concert venues (the Giant Center), numerous wineries and breweries and fine dining. Various organized groups are part of the community, including Scouts, Orchestra, Line Dancing, Gardening, Homemakers, Ski Club, Pickleball, Volleyball, “Hoopsters”, Yoga, and a Children’s Play Group, among others.
As a full-time REALTOR I proudly serve Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin and York Counties in Pennsylvania with designations as a Seller Representative Specialist, an Accredited Buyer Representative, and a Certified Military Residential Specialist. My mission is to provide, “A service experience that creates customers for life!”. Come make Lake Meade part of your story! I would love to help you write the next page!
