Westwood

By
Real Estate Agent with CENTURY 21 Lake Almanor Real Estate and Cottage Realty
Mountain Meadows Reservoir (Walker Lake)One  of the communities I serve as a real estate agent is Westwood, in northern California.  Westwood is a former company-owned logging mill town that went belly-up in the 1950s. Many of the houses were built on post and pier foundations. The corner houses were used by the mill managers and are much bigger than the other houses in the town.  Today, Westwood's population is around 2000.  People are drawn to Westwood by the many outdoor activities it affords, including fishing, hunting, boating, snowmobiling, hiking, biking, etc.  The mountain views are beautiful.  Walker Lake sits at the bottom of Dyer Mountain, a couple of miles from Westwood. There is a proposed 4-season resort trying against all odds to be built there.  That isn't Dyer Mountain in the distance.  It's much closer to the lake.
