Wonderful Family Time in Beautiful Property and Area
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at this beautiful property in the Shaver Lake area! There were 9 of us, ages 10 to 69. The home was beautiful, clean, and had a well-appointed kitchen with plenty of pots, pans, utensils, etc. The grill outside was clean and ready for our use. The bedrooms were spacious and had comfortable beds. When we weren’t sharing a meal or working on a jigsaw puzzle in the house, we were hiking or hanging out at the lake. Some went fishing, others paddle-boarding, and the rest of us hung out enjoying the beautiful, cool weather. Bottom line is that we would be happy to stay at this property again some day!

Shaver Lake Refuge
There was more than enough room for our group of six! We found everything we needed in the well-stocked kitchen, and the beautiful decor helped us relax in the evenings after a full day of skiing and boarding at China Lake. We were just a few minutes away from restaurants, markets, a gas station, and beautiful hiking trails. The people of Shaver Lake are wonderfully friendly and welcoming. The Refuge was just that, a lovely refuge in the snow-covered Sierras. We’ll return.
