I Love Where I Live - Part Time, Anyway

 

 

Part of my life is spent in Lake Arrowhead, California...and I love it! Located above the Los Angeles basin at 5100 feet above sea level, Lake Arrowhead has a mild mountain climate all year around. We avoid the extremes that our higher elevation neighbors experience while still getting our share of snow in the winter. It just leaves quickly, leaving plenty of warm, sun-filled winter days as well. 

 

Lake Arrowhead, California is a private lake community. The lake is for the use of the members only and a member must live in the Arrowhead Woods. Membership is only $65/month and gives you the right to launch a boat, join a swim club and enjoy the other aspects of the Lake (for additional fees). 

The highlight of the summer season is always the spectacular fireworks display and the best place to enjoy it is in the middle of the Lake, from a boat. 

When fall arrives, so does the beautiful fall colors. Yes, we do get fall colors. It's the beginning of the cooler months. The Lake Arrowhead Village has an Oktoberfest each year which is always crowded. The cooler weather encourages one to build a fire and spend the evenings in. 

All-in-all, I love where I live, even if it's only part time. I'll share a little secret with you....Mission Viejo isn't bad either. :)

This must be used as a blog I will need to write one for a contest.

Thanks for sharing.

Having been born in San Bernardino 1000 years ago, and having had a family cabin at Arrowhead for years, I agree completely! When driving from Utah to SoCal, I always take a detour through the mountains instead of staying on I-15. Big Bear, Rim of the World, Crestline...Yep, you live in a great place!

Karen, You do have the best of both worlds. Lake Arrowhead is the perfect retreat for a weekend or vacation get away.

Lake Arrowhead sounds like my kind of place.  I bet it is a treat to be there half the year.

Haha before getting to the end, I was thinking "both your part-time homes are pretty darn nice places!".  Haven't been to your lake but love visiting Big Bear for some fun on the slopes in the winter
