2008 Shaver Lake's Calendar of Events

Historically, Shaver Lake, CA, and its surroundings have provided an area for hunters, fishermen, and leisure visitors.  Today, the Shaver Lake area provides a vast number of other activities including boating, waterskiing, hiking, camping, picnicking, snow-skiing, snowmobiling, mountain biking, horseback riding, mountain climbing, wildlife viewing, and recreational woodcutting.   Festivals, craft fairs, and other events occur in the Shaver Lake, California area throughout the year.  The U.S. Forest Service and Southern California Edison own much of land that surrounds the area, giving visitors and residents freedom to explore this beautiful wilderness.  Vacation to Shaver Lake could not get any better.  You can get the full experience of the great outdoors in many beautiful cabins, and many other lush vacation rental and properties.  If you are ready to relax, and have a great time in Shaver Lake, Auberry, Prather, Tollhouse, Friant, Pineridge, Big Creek, and Lakeshore, CA, just give Greg Judd of RE/MAX Gold, Shaver Lake a call for your next vacation, or real estate purchase.
