The community is terrible 0.5 rating By Anonymous ( Apr 13, 2020) They are a schumbag community that feels very privileged and they have nothing but a good lake and some over priced housing and why the heck do you need to be 21 to get into a basketball court ...Read More Read Less

Lake Meade Resident 1.5 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 14, 2019) The locals who surround Lake Meade shoot at targets facing 900 homes.
A bullet was lodged in a home, on my street, Christmas Morning 2017.
The homeowner posted this on the Lake Meade “next door” web site.
It turns out, the beautiful 1860’s farm behind my street has been h ...Read More it with stray bullets. It was on the news a few years ago.
A home owner on Mud Run Road facing Lake Meade said “I got bullet holes in my house and I don’t go CRYIN’ and WHININ’ the the cops!!!”
It is not the gated communtiy that is advertises.
Although there is basically no crime, bullets through homes right mear my house is terrifying.
The Latimore police are nasty about it.
Our cat was shot. We were told by a police officer, “you live in the country, people hunt here, people shoot here!”
I have no issue with any person hunting or shooting. The people shooting towards the homes in Lake Meade are being irresponsible.
When I asked the Gettysburg State troopers if I should be worried, they were nasty.
The lake meade website from January 2018 will mention the same home was hit twice by a stray bullet. A home on the other side of lake meade has bullet holes in their mailbox.
I’m terrified!!!
If your home is hit with a stray bullet, no person outside of the lake will be held accountable.
If you are from an urban area. Your call to the police will only be met with MALICE, contempt, and hatred. Do not move to the area if you do not have a southern PA accent.
Outsiders are treated like non human, garbage.
If I were shot right now by a stray bullet, nobody would do a thing.
It is disgusting. Why would any person buy a million dollar home here?!!
We are surrounded by what is in the movie “Deliverance”. There is not one helpful law enforcement officer, if you are not a local. Maybe they are nice to families with German last names who have been here since the 1700’s??? If you are not one of these families, the locals will treat you like you are scum. Do not move here. Every person with an education and from another state says the same things I am saying. They can’t take it! They stay because of their jobs and not wanting to uproot their kids. If you are Italian, French, or basically anything other than German from many generations ago, you are scum to the local people. They will treat you like garbage and not talk to you. Read Less

Nice scenic area but desolate and HOA is questionable 2.5 rating By RUPitt ( Sep 03, 2016) Very scenic area with a nice lake that has some good fishing. Most of the people in the community are nice and pleasant. There is one pizza place in the community. Service varies. Half the time nail it. Others, can't get it right and if they do it takes an hour for a tuna fish s ...Read More andwich. There is not much close but a lot in a half hour radius. Nearest grocery store is 8 miles. Nearest gas station is a few miles. However, Gettysburg, Hanover, York and Harrisburg are a half hour to 40 minutes. So make sure you have gas, eggs and milk before you get home.Community office does not evenly apply community rules. It really depends on who in the office you know. Cut down a 30 year old 15 ft Japanese Maple because it was under electrical line (would never have grown tall enough to reach line). However, other properties have tree in the lines that are still standing. A variety of other examples from fences to clothesline prohibitions. Read Less
