About Crestline's Mile High Park

The Mile High Park area of Crestline and homes in Mile High Park are unique. You drive up and away from town by taking Zurich to Wylerhorn to Wabern to Weisshorn and then a left onto Pine Ridge Drive. Yes, I know, it seems to be taking you to the middle of nowhere, but that is the appeal of the Mile High Park area. This community is set apart from the rest of Crestline, which seems to lend to it's exclusivity.

This small subdivision of Crestline borders on the San Bernardino National Forest. You can literally walk out your door with a backpack and a tent(and supplies) and keep walking until you find a spot that looks good and go camping! You can do this from other places in Crestline as well, but none better than Mile High Park.

Mile High Park is a small community of just a few homes, but many are large places with large, level lots and garages! I think the most garages here in Crestline can be found here in the Mile High area! Each home is different and unique, and there is a superior pride of ownership. Most of these homes here have fabulous views of the surrounding mountains, the high desert, and lots and lots of trees! You can sit outside on your porch and literally hear nothing but the birds and the wind. There aren't too many cars that come out this way and everyone watches out for their neighbors.

The natural beauty of the mountains of Crestline are what drives most people to buy a home here. We get the full four seasons, but Southern California style so not as badly as the rest of the country. Particularly in Mile High Park, the weather seems a bit warmer on this side of the mountain so snow melts a bit better. With the pride of ownership seen here, homes retain a good value. There are some fantastic gardens and landscaping here in the Mile High area, and several of the homes have been on the Crestline Community Development Alliance's Home Tour and Garden Tour, each held annually here in Crestline and it's surrounding subdivisions.

The homes here in Mile High Park are a little newer than the rest of Crestline, with several that were recently built in the last 10 years. Again, most of the houses have completely level lots and are large enough for RV and boat parking. Living in the mountains if you have these kinds of toys then it's nice to have a lot of parking for them, and you can find that here in this area. There aren't any restrictions on parking here as there are down the hill on city streets. There are also several lots for sale here in Mile High if you are interested in building your dream home. This would be a great place to live!

You will most likely see bears here in Mile High Park, as well as other mountain wildlife. Coyotes, mountain lions, squirrels, racoons, birds...so make sure you respect that this is a wildland forest. As with all homes up here, you need to secure your trash and other belongings, and make sure your pets are adequately provided for with shelter that is secure and can withstand these creatures. A mama bear and two cubs has been fairly active in Crestline for the last couple of weeks, even venturing into the Top Town area of Crestline as well as other streets closer in to town, looking for food and water. A doctor's office receptionist took pictures of a bear that came up onto their deck and gave her a great scare. The bear was on their property for a little bit, being inquisitive and mainly trying to find food.

See what a gorgeous area you could be living in?! For more information about homes here in the Mile High Park area of Crestline, please email me at steeleofalifetime@gmail.com. You can also visit my websites at www.HomesForSaleinCrestline.com and www.CrestlineForeclosures.com.
