Welcome
Welcome to Pine Lake, DeKalb County’s smallest city and biggest secret.
If you’re anything like the rest of us, you’ve been looking for a community like this one — a place where you know your neighbors and they know you, where you’re close to all those amenities that a larger city can offer while still maintaining that small town feel.
Pine Lake is just such a place. From the weekly coffee and pastries get-togethers (or monthly pancake breakfasts) to clean-up projects and more, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to get to know your neighbors … and make new friends.

And, of course, the swimming!! Some short speeches about community and safety, plus a nice gathering of our police force really reinforced [...]
The morning started off with the PLAIN Membership breakfast where all joining or renewing members got to eat free! The greengrocer arrived midmorning and my girls picked out lots of fruit, including a watermelon that I then had to lug up our hill. A couple of afternoon trips to the beach for swimming and play.
