The Neighborhood:
The East Village of Shaver Lake is a charming and scenic area located near the lake, offering a more tranquil, rustic atmosphere compared to the main village. Nestled among towering pine trees, it provides a peaceful retreat with easy access to outdoor recreation and natural beauty. The village is home to cozy cabins and a few local businesses, including a bar, cafes, and seasonal restaurants.
East Village is ideally situated for those seeking outdoor adventure, especially during the summer and winter months. In the warmer season, visitors can enjoy boating, fishing, and hiking, with Shaver Lake being a popular destination for water sports. The surrounding Sierra National Forest offers numerous trails for hiking, mountain biking, and wildlife viewing.
In winter, East Village becomes a peaceful gateway to nearby snow sports, with close access to the China Peak Mountain Resort for skiing and snowboarding. The area retains a more relaxed, residential vibe, making it a great choice for those looking to escape the more crowded areas while still being close to the lake and outdoor activities.
