This historic home and one of the first homes built at Fishhawk Lake (1970) will now be the beloved full time residence for first time home buyers, Nick and Javier.  They found Fishhawk Lake  nestled in the coastal range of Oregon on a lark and as soon as they saw this home, they fell in love! They drove back into Portland, and contacted me straight-away. I was given the great privilege of representing them as buyers, as well as the wonderful sellers who were reluctantly selling, but having to since they have moved to CA to care for aging parents.  We met soon after and I showed them the 70's vibe of the inside of this rambling cabin, filled with wonderful generations of family memories, both from the owners who first built it together as a family, to my recent sellers who ALSO fell in ...

Darling renovated turnkey lakefront A-frame took only a week to sell! An agent was looking for the perfect getaway for her clients as they'd been searching for awhile. Just as this one came on the market I let her know about it and she set up an appointment right away. They loved it!  All done, and they are now new lakefront homeowners at Fishhawk Lake!  Thank you, Shawn Gibson,  for the ease of the transaction. She even helped while I was on a private island vacationing in the Bahamas. All good!  It's great to have a smooth transaction even when there's a vacation happening in the middle of it....that doesn't happen often enough!! Buyers and sellers pay attention, things are moving here!!! And I'm excited to be a part of that. Great energy will be coming to the lake with these new owne...

This home has been listed and sold by me three times! We are now onto our 4th new owner and I couldn't be happier....along with the sellers. Only 25 days on the market! Great turn-around for out here at Fishhawk Lake!   I am representing both sellers and buyers as I've had the pleasure of doing each time I sold this custom lakefront home on Fishhawk Lake. Looking forward to a smooth transaction/transition. Four clients who are wonderful to get along with.  I pinch myself sometimes as to how lucky I am to do what I LOVE!  If you want to work with someone who is truly passionate about Fishhawk Lake and a local expert, call or write me!Gayle C.

 Rufous Hummingbird with its tongue out!  I was lucky enough to be nearby with a somewhat steady hand. Ahhh, spring! A birder’s paradise! Time for the zing-zing sound of Hummingbirds zipping by at warp speed! The glitter and shimmer of the Rufous Hummingbird at its whopping 3&3/4 inches in length, it still rules the air with speed and aggression! Both males (pictured above) and females do this They protect their food sources with ferocity!

Fishhawk Lake Real Estate Do They Allow Log Cabins? I just had an inquiry from my lakehomesatfishhawk.com website and the potential buyer asked if Fishhawk Lake allows log cabins. I love this question and it's never really been asked quite like this before!  Absolutely!! My husband and I have even bought and sold two log cabins, both on Beach Drive. Log cabins or log homes are always popular no matter the season or the size.                  If you want to build a log home or log cabin, they must be at least 900 square feet. There's an incredible log home builder who is second generation in this business and he's done some extensive work out here in our Fishhawk Lake community. Sunset Log Homes of Oregon56200 NW Sunset HwyTimber 97144503-324-0514The quintessential "log cabin on a lake" ...

I sent off an e-mail to one of my sellers today to let them know I'll be showing their home at Fishhawk Lake on Sunday.  In response, I got an updated photo of one of their more recent family members, Fuzzy, whom I had met while signing the listing papers. They had just gotten him, he was a tiny kitten, being held oh-so-gently by my seller's daughter and they were completely bonding.  Looks like he is growing up quite comfortably and is now the king of his domaine, with a "crown" no less!
