Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it truly captures what makes Shaver Lake special. It’s beautiful, spacious, and peaceful — surrounded by towering pines and open skies that give you room to breathe and unwind. Unlike more crowded areas, this neighborhood feels quiet and private, making it perfect for relaxing mornings, evening walks, and enjoying the mountain air without noise or congestion.
The spacious lots create a sense of seclusion while still being just minutes from downtown, the lake, and China Peak. It offers the best of both worlds: convenience and tranquility. From the moment we first visited, we knew this was the perfect setting for a true mountain getaway — and we’re excited to share it with you.
