This beautiful home is located on the East Shore of Lake Almanor. An all weather paved road is open all year for summer and winter access. The home is steps from the beach and close enough that you can hear the water lapping at the shore.
It faces West to capture the incredible sunsets and views of Mt Lassen. The large deck has a built-in gas BBQ. In addition there is an electric smoker, gas patio heaters, Tiki lights and lots of room for tables and chairs and is also steps from the large beach, dock, horseshoe pit and basketball hoop.
Tall pines shade the house from most sun but do not block your expansive views of this very large lake. Good fishing can be found at Lake Almanor with several varieties of fish. Small mouth bass is best right off of the large boat dock. Trout can also be seen and caught from the dock.
A fishing boat and kayak are also provided. In addition to the dock there is also a boat launching ramp and an anchor buoy if you have your own boat. The inside of this home is truly remarkable with a large brick and rock fireplace, two story open beam ceiling, large kitchen with breakfast island, huge pantry, sun room/dining room with great views of the lake, 4 bedrooms and two baths.
The house is cooled by the tall pines, many windows, sliding doors and a large cooler. The garage has air filled water toys to play in the water. Bikes are provided and there are many bike trails in the area, including one that runs around part of the lake and another that runs along an abandoned railroad line next to the Susan River and 30 miles to Susanville, California.
Bald Eagles and Ospreys nest near the house and are seen almost daily fishing for their dinner right in front of your door. Hearing them call to one another is truly remarkable and occasional fights occur. This home is very private, yet on a main road and close to restaurants, gas, shopping, and Chester California, the Gateway to Lassen National Park.
Many of the rentals nearby are either condo's or houses in a group setting and not really right on the lake and are usually crowded with other renters. Here you are really by yourselves. There are neighbors, but most are summer homes that are stayed in infrequently.
Staying here during the winter is truly magical with the plowed main road and the driveway plowed prior to your arrival if there has been snow. The lake is very calm in the winter, perfect for cruising the lake in our kayak. We have been out January 1st, the lake was like glass and the temperature was 50 degrees, hot on the water and no one around.
Other times the beauty of the snowfall on the lake and forest is really breathtaking. Families staying at Lake Almanor and this wonderful home have made never to forget lifetime memories. Our children and grandchildren never want to leave the lake and want to spend the majority of the time on the beach.
