Camp Summer of ’69
Pocono Pines, Pennsylvania
This time capsule of a cabin transports guests back to summers where things were simpler. “It’s about playing cards or a game of checkers and getting outside,” says former owner Michael Dembinski, who’s responsible for the cabin’s renovation. The A-frame is the place to be in any season, with skiing in the winter and Lake Naomi right down the road for warmer weather.
