GREEN VALLEY LAKE

We went up to Green Valley Lake a few days ago and it was beautiful.  I hadn't been up here much during summer so it was nice to see the lake being used.  Usually it's cold and no one is doing anything but fishing.  This lake is about 7000 feet - a little higher in altitude than Big Bear Lake.

We use to have a cabin up here but only owned it for a few years before we sold it.  We just weren't using it enough to justify the payment and utility payments - being too busy with work and kids to get away much. I wish now we had kept it and just added on to make the bedrooms bigger.  The whole cabin was only 650 sq feet but the deck was about 800 sq. feet so in good weather the deck seemed to be part of the house but in winter - everything felt so small.

Is that the lake we took the kids out on that time using the pedal boats? It sure looks beautiful!! Have you driven by the cabin lately...or the Plummer's cabin?

thanks everyone - yes L that is where we took them. We drive by our old cabin every time we are up there and no haven't been by the Plummer's cabin in a while. There are a lot more cabins/houses on the main road and I'm not sure anymore exactly where to turn - i do think i remember it wasn't far from the fire station. Will look for it next time we are up there which will definitely be in the fall.

I would remember because we had to get an ambulance there for mom that time and I can still see the fire station in my mind's eye.
