 Sunset Boating on Fishhawk Lake

Sunset on Fishhawk Lake-Gayle Rich-Boxman 7.16

There are so many reasons to buy a home on a lake and this is just one of them that creates a sense of total relaxation, which is partly why people are drawn to Fishhawk Lake.

I took this while on my pontoon on a weekday in July and I happened to be the only one on Fishhawk Lake as the sun was calling it a day. 

It was thoroughly pleasurable and the dogs were taking it all in with a joy that only dogs know and we can all learn from, having a slight breeze that whisks interesting smells by your nose and being totally in the present.  

This is a small bit of what this lake has to offer anyone who owns their "slice of paradise" at or on Fishhawk Lake. 

Pontoons, paddleboats, kayaks, canoes, driftboats, paddleboards, rowboats, it all works here for boating on Fishhawk Lake so long as it is human or electric powered.

Keeps things quiet, keeps our waters pristine and it keeps you young by creating memories on this very unique lake in the coastal range of Oregon!

Does this sound like the magic you want to create or recreate in your life? You can buy land, build, or buy existing...camp forever or find that rustic cabin, or maybe get yourself a luxury lakefront home. We have all of that here. Let me be your "Gateway to the Lake"...call me if this sounds right up your alley!

Hi Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Realtor (503)755-2905 Who wouldn't want to be there with you? The lake is beautiful, and I like that no noisy boats are allowed.

Hi Gayle - Lake living is the best. I just got back from an hour at the dock watching - and abetting - total buffoonery by my guys, who will be sleeping the afternoon away now that they have zero energy left. I might take a nap too.

Hi Gayle, Even though I have never lived on a lake, my dad took me fishing and canoeing when I was young.  Living on a Lake would be magic to wake up to the sounds of nature as the sun rises and sets with the reflecting diamonds across the water, even when the moon takes over on the night shift.  

Any one interested in living on the lake in the beautiful state of Oregon, needs to contact Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Realtor (503)755-2905

Oh, Sharon Lee you would be in hog heaven! Light breeze, with just the right amount of sunshine. The kids are SOOOO happy--AND our "girls", Della and Pearl, our mule and horse. landed in heaven, too.

It was so easy to describe this life through Kasa and Takoda's eyes, Ron and Alexandra Seigel and I had to go back and read what I wrote as a result of  your comment, just to live it again.

Noah Seidenberg you have the kind of soul that deserves to live in paradise, because you would never take it for granted.
Kathleen Daniels I love how you word things! Yes, we are livin' the dream.

Kathy Schowe what's so amazing is that I just put together a post where you were part of it--remember being one of the winners of the Virtual Travellers contest? I wrote about it just last week. So wonderful to see you--welcome back!

Larry Johnston gotta say, that was so beautifully written! "Reflecting diamonds across the water"....that totally speaks to me!

Yolanda Cordova-Gilbert it was as if it was my very own private lake...love. 

Ed Silva you know, you say the nicest things. Thank you, my friend.
