Understanding the Mountain Top Addendum for Lake Arrowhead and Crestline, Part 1
(AKA Supplement to Residential Purchase Agreement)
When purchasing a mountain property here in Lake Arrowhead and Crestline areas, you get the best of what Southern California has to offer as far as natural beauty, relaxation, and convenience. You will be signing A LOT of paperwork. That’s the reality of purchasing any home in California, and hopefully you have hired yourself a wonderful agent that will walk you through each addendum and supplement and notice(READ: hire Amy Steele).
The Mountain Top Addendum was created to help you understand what living in the Southern California mountains REALLY means. Hopefully you hired a local agent (who lives and works solely in the mountain communities of Lake Arrowhead and Crestline) because as you’re driving around looking at homes to find the right one you are getting an in-depth tour so to speak of the different areas, interesting features of the forests, historical things that happened on this spot sort of information that you won’t get from an agent who’s business and home is down the hill. By hiring a local agent you are going to learn more from them about the homes period, but that is a different blog.
The Mountain Addendum has 38 sections and was written by local Realtors with many years of experience in selling real estate here. In several parts I will go through the document to help you understand more about this important disclosure. 
Section 1: Arrowhead Lake Association and Lake Rights
This section explains that Lake Arrowhead is a man-made lake and is private property for the use of the homeowners in the Arrowhead Woods property boundary. You and your guests are allowed to use the lake with your Arrowhead Lake Association membership (see www.TheLakeArrowheadWoods.com for more information). There are access maps that show the ALA trails and access points along the border of the lake for property owners that do not have lakefront property.
Reserve strips of land around the lake are available for use by all property owners in the ALA and you must carry proof of membership with you at all times on such strips. These strips are above the high water mark and are for park and recreational purposes. There may be restrictions for each property for the use of these strips in old deeds and CC&Rs that date back all the way to 1932. You should read these documents when provided to you by your Realtor from the title company. Bicycles are not allowed on the reserve strips or trails.
WHAT IF I AM NEAR THE LAKE: You are advised that should you choose to NOT purchase Arrowhead Woods property, you are not entitled to use the lake. Period. No fishing, boating, skiing, hiking, putting a toe into the water. I have had people ask if they can fish from the village. I’m sorry but that’s not allowed! This lake is a private club and gives much enjoyment should you choose to purchase here. There are several membership types available to homeowners as well to choose from in case you don’t own a boat and just want to use the beach clubs and hiking trails. Properties in the Arrowhead Villas do not have lake rights.
LAUNCHING A BOAT: The rules for launching a boat can be found at http://www.thelakearrowheadwoods.com/LAKE_RIGHTSUSAGE/page_2101860.html . There is no personal watercraft allowed, which includes jet skis, waverunners, or windsurfing.
LAKEFRONT LOTS: This section also addresses the definition of a Lake Arrowhead lakefront lot. You do not actually own the land down to the water should you purchase a lakefront. The reserve strips are owned by the ALA and should your lot border the reserve strip by a minimum of 10%, then you are considered a lakefront lot.
TENANTS OF ARROWHEAD WOODS OWNERS: Tenants do not have lake rights, only the owners of the property and their guests. Perhaps you will become close to your tenants and you want them as your guests on the lake someday when you come up to use it. That is up to you entirely of course, but remember, you are responsible for your guests when they are on any ALA property!
I hope that you do not see this comprehensive section or document as limiting. It merely explains the rules to you in a black and white manner so you can fully understand what it means to have or not to have lake rights. Owning a home in the Arrowhead Woods is still extremely rewarding because of how gorgeous each area of the lake is and to be able to fully take advantage of Lake Arrowhead is what you want when you are up here. Imagine listening to the birds as they call and fly across the lake and trees in the still morning or evening from your deck or dock. Hanging out on your dock all day, swimming, sunbathing, barbequing with friends and family. Skiing on the lake and breathing in the lake air and pine scent of the warmth of the day. Walking on trails that wind through custom mountain homes, some million dollar properties, others charmers of a smaller price tag and spying a family of raccoons.
No matter your price point there is certainly going to be your dream home to be found amongst the trees. I hope that you allow me to assist you in finding your place here above the clouds but down to earth!
Take care, and there will be more to come with this series. Should you have any questions in the meantime, please email me or call me at the information below.

Crestline Village's Best Antique Store up here in gorgeous Crestline is by far Remember Me. The shop is located at 23805 Lake Drive int he downtown portion of Crestline Village. Now, I may be more than an objective blogger on this Crestline business, being that I have obtained most of my coolest furniture from this antique store. Every time I drive down Lake Drive into town I slow down to see what they have out in the parking lot today!
The inventory outside of Remember Me is in a constant state of flux and they get new pieces in and sell off others. They always have a treasure out there, as well as inside the store, and you can get some great pieces of furniture and other goodies. I have seen everything from an antique mannequin carved like an old soldier's uniform to an old movie theater popcon maker. They sell some great chairs and tables, as well as beautiful armoires and cabinets.
On the inside of this fun store, you can literally spend hours browsing(and buying) all of the unique things the have in stock as well as discovering items you might not ever have seen before. One time when I went in there with some friends, I found a nice ceramic dish with a steel or aluminum bottom and a nozzle with a cap. The tag called it a child's warming dish. Oh! I hadn't ever seen anything like that before, since after doing some research, learned that these were used to keep children's oatmeal and other cereals warm by putting hot water in the bottom of them. I liked it so much that I bought it then went on Ebay and bought another one to hang on the walls of my kitchen!
They have unique pre-war glass that glows green when you put it under a black light. They have swords and pipes, old tin toys and jewelry, dolls and dishes, and so much more. So when you make a beautiful fall trip to our mountains to enjoy the cooler air and changing leaves, make sure you stop in this treasure trove of a store and remember things of the past!
Take care,
Amy Steele
Crestline and Lake Arrowhead Vacation Homes are a Bargain right now!
Good evening all,
I was reading through my daily Realtor.com magazine and thought that I would share 
the news! Apparently the Wall Street Journal is saying that it is a great time to buy a second home in vacation spots. I think they are about a year behind on our Crestline and Lake Arrowhead market, which didn’t make the list from what I can see. Prices are down all over the country of course, we see that in the doom-and-gloom news on a daily basis but if you’re a buyer looking for a second home in a beautiful locale then this is great news.
Crestline and Lake Arrowhead are lake resort communities. Crestline has Lake Gregory, which is a county park and open to all for swimming, fishing, boating(rental boats only) kayaking and sailing. They have waterslides for all ages(yes I’ve been on them many times!) and a new water feature with water fountains and large sculptural flowers that pour and dump water on those waiting below. It truly is a lot of fun. Our one year old son loves the lake and especially loves the new water park. He enjoys watching the other kids and playing with the water. Crestline is a quaint small town community that has restaurants and shops as well as hiking along trails and around Lake Gregory. There is also a dog park and ball fields.
Lake Arrowhead is a private lake and should you have a boat that you want to launch you will have to have a vacation home within the Arrowhead Woods. This private community has several beaches and clubs around the lake to lay out and soak in the sun and trails that run around the lake to take a walk on. Waterskiing, kneeboarding, kayaking and boating are the big draw to Lake Arrowhead. We also have a lot of great high class restaurants, lots of cute mountain shops as well as some outlet shops. There are free concerts at the Village in the summertime and tons of events year round.
These communities have had much activity this year so far with people coming up to purchase a second home since prices are down about 50% from where they were in 2005. There are lake view homes for a steal(Crestline lake view properties), (Lake Arrowhead lake view properties up to $500k)(Lake Arrowhead Luxury lake view over $500k), Lake Arrowhead lake front properties that are just to die for with all of their richness and amenities, and properties that are close to both lakes that you can walk down to enjoy.
We are seeing multiple offers on our homes up here. If the house is priced really great and is in good condition, it’s going to sell within days of coming on the market. I have some buyers who have been outbid now on 5 different homes so we are having a sizzling hot summer! Not in temperature though, our temps are always at least 20 degrees cooler than those down the hill! It’s bee gorgeous up here!
Crestline and Lake Arrowhead are just a stone’s throw away for many regions of southern California so if you have been putting it off, you may want to make your appointments now before prices start to go back up! Come up for the fresh air and relaxation, and to be a part of a community again.
Take care and hope you all have a wonderful evening,
Amy Steele

Good day all. This is part 2 in my saga of being a homeowner in Crestline and Lake Arrowhead. You can read part 1 at http://activerain.com/blogsview/2177947/my-butt-is-freezing-and-other-mountain-home-ownership-stories.
...After noticing the hole going under the house right by the front door, I get mad. How can I not have ever noticed this hole here before? How could that skunk have dug himself a hole by my main front door without me noticing? We have smelled skunk over the last couple of months but figured he was walking through the yard. And now he was under my house.
How was I supposed to come and go when this smelly new unwelcome tenant could surprise me while carrying my son at any time? I had visions of us getting sprayed and worried about leaving the house. My husband was surprised when I called him. He also hadn’t noticed the hole. 
At this point I really wanted to shoot the little sucker but then what if I didn’t just scare him but hurt him enough so that he sprayed me or died under there? I go back inside and start stomping on the floor, rattling the cover on the furnace to see if I could scare him enough to leave. That only scared him further into his hidey hole and he sprayed to protect himself anyways. I got a good whiff of skunk after I did that right by the front door under the kitchen floor. Just the place where you’d want to smell skunk huh?
Having one of the best handymen up here on the mountain as a friend, I called him and begged for help! Fortunately he had just picked up a trap from another home where he relocated that unwelcome tenant.
My husband got home and went under the house where I thought the skunk was. He crawls all over and finally I hear a pop. He doesn’t say a word, then backs out slowly on his stomach. Then pop, 
pop. I ask what was going on. He doesn’t say anything, then one more pop and he yells “go cover the hole!!! Quick!!!” I begin running back to the front of the house, then stop as I realize it could be coming into the back yard right at me and I am stupidly running towards it. I pick up a large branch. It’s dusk by this time and I got that branch not a moment too soon as I see the shadow of the skunk moving around the corner of the house! I start shouting and waving the branch and beating it on the ground. Thank the good Lord that he turns around and runs out into the front yard. I round the corner slowly and he’s running down the steps towards the front of the house. I throw that branch towards him with all my strength and quickly cover the hole with whatever I can find and then shovel some snow and dirt on top.
In the morning our handyman brings the trap over and sets it up. Guess who we got in there that same night? Mr. Skunk trying to get back into the den.
Lesson learned for all of us that own mountain property in Lake Arrowhead and Crestline. Walk around your home every few days and make sure that there aren’t any dens being created by the local wildlife. Keep your basements closed off to intruders.
It’s mating season for skunks. Can you imagine if we’d had another one plus babies???
Serving Crestline's Lake Gregory and Lake Arrowhead in the beautiful So Cal Mountains!Your Realtor Providing Christian Professionalism in All Transactions
I am a full-time Realtor in Crestline and Lake Arrowhead CA with Coldwell Banker Sky Ridge Realty.
**Are you looking for a vintage cabin, a home on the water, or just want to upgrade? Whether it be a newer home, fixer or lovingly restored; a Lake Arrowhead golf course home with panoramic fairway views; a lakefront estate with all of the luxury appointments expected therein then you have found the Realtor for your needs! I assist you with my professional experience and technological savvy to get you a great deal on one of our Crestline or Lake Arrowhead resort homes. I watch out for your interests in all transactions and give you reassurance along the way. If tenacity,integrity and trust are attributes you need in your Realtor then rest assured you are in the right place.**
I grew up in Temecula Calif. in beautiful Wine Country on 2 acres of horse property. I watched Temecula grow from a two lane main street and one stoplight to the huge valley that it is today. After living by the ocean for a few years, my husband and I moved back to the valley. With each passing summer getting hotter and hotter, we decided to move to the gorgeous (and cooler) San Bernardino mountains. The first time we drove up the mountain, I remember the anxiety of what we were doing: it seemed so far away from everything!!! It was such a huge change! Being a true California girl, I didn't know if I'd like the cold and snow.
I am most pleased to say: I do love it and I know that you will too! The air is fresh and clean, the communities ofCrestline and Lake Arrowhead are small and close. You will enjoy being on the mountain, which is similar to the ocean community in that it's laid back and you're able to relax. I enjoy selling real estate up here, because it's all about a lake lifestyle! I am truly blessed to be able to live and work in the community in which I love.
http://www.TheLakeArrowheadWoods.com is my other website, though there wasn't room to put it in the space above!!!
As a Realtor that has lived in Southern California my whole life, I know how best to help clients to find what they're looking for, whether their dream home is in the mountains, in the valley, or by the sea. I provide ethical, moral professionalism in all of the transactions I am party to. I represent buyers and sellers equally.
For Crestline and Lake Arrowhead buyers, I provide outstanding service, making sure you get the best deal on your home purchase. I have programs to email listings that are on your wish list and in your price range, so you don't waste gas looking at homes that aren't affordable. I will only show you homes that you want to see, not what will get me the most commission.
You will know everything up front and have it all explained to take away some of the stress of buying a home. While we are in escrow, you will know what's going on immediately so you're not left wondering and I will go to bat for you if there is an issue that may come up. I use an extensive network of local Crestline and Lake Arrowhead professionals in title and escrow, as well as reputable handymen, plumbers, electricians, and other specialists to help you during and after your purchase up here.
**Your privacy is of the upmost importance to me, which is why many people purchase a vacation home up here in our resorts. We are close to Los Angeles area communities and a quick jaunt from there to be in a mountain paradise in under 2 hours is why many affluent and celebrity clients make this their home away from home. Lake Arrowhead is a private lake for Arrowhead Woods homeowners which keeps away the hustle and bustle of real life for a while. Owning a piece of a private lake is a precious commodity for those that value their private lives.**
For Crestline and Lake Arrowhead sellers, I provide internet savvy marketing, creating custom pages just for your listing to best showcase it's qualities. I have my own websites that have been very active where buyers come to view homes and other area information. I have several websites that get listings out into the world wide web, most notably, www.thelakearrowheadwoods.com, www.homesforsaleincrestline.com, www.crestlineforeclosures.com, and www.thelakearrowheadvillas.com. Our office puts all listings on the most popular search for homes, Realtor.com, with expanded listings, containing virtual tours. I also advertise on LATimes.com, Yahoo.com, movoto.com, Homesandland.com, craigslist.org,zillow.com,googlebase.com, and many many more of the most popular searches for Crestline and Lake Arrowhead real estate. Homes are put on different MLS systems to reach most of California, with the entire state of California to be included soon. I use up-to-date technology and processes to get your property broadcast across the web so it is seen all over the world as quickly as possible.
I provide communication every step of the way. You will know that I am working for you, and putting your interests first. As a Realtor who is truly focused on delivering professional service, I want you to understand my committment to you, my clients.
Amy does a great job getting to know her client and actively listening to your wants, needs and dreams. She is a no-pressure agent who wants to do her best for you. She's there for you throughout the buying process and provides support after you've made your purchase. You couldn't ask for a more sincere and trustworthy person. I would highly recommend her to family and friends. It has truly been a pleasure working with Amy through 2 purchases. We have remained friends and I value that most of all!! Thanks, Amy for always being there for me!!!
Martha Dominguez, hired Amy Steele for a second transaction
******************************************
Amy is one of the BEST agents I have ever dealt with! She is very knowledgeable about things to look out for when house hunting. Every step of the way she was available and there for us. Even though our particular process was very frustrating, she always was upbeat and kept a positive attitude. Even after the sale, she has been a great help, finding service people for us, etc. I would recommend her highly to anyone and I consider her not just our agent, but a friend.

********************************************
I've been working with Amy Steele since May 2008. I was determined to find a vacation home in the mountains around Crestline; something that has been a dream of mine for a very long time. Amy took her valuable time to take my family and me to look at dozens of homes. She understood that I was not willing to compromise my budget and that I was in no hurry to purchase a property. Most Realtors hear that and tend to discount you as not being serious about a purchase. Amy could have believed: "What opportunity is there in someone who might not ever purchase a property. Why waste my time?" But she stuck with me.
I truly appreciate her partnership in finally locating a property for me in September 2009. Amy made the purchase and escrow process smooth and painless. She has recently assisted in the purchase of land adjacent to my newly purchased home. She has been available to answer all of my questions even when I might have been a pest, and she has done so just days after the birth of her first child.
I've dealt with other Realtors in the past, and can honestly say that my experience with Amy Steele has been remarkable and not something I will soon forget. She is definitely dedicated to her clients and to creating the utmost in a positive client experience. She is a winner in my book who I highly recommend. You can't lose with someone like Amy. She truly strives to be an understanding and trustworthy friend as well as a dedicated, hard working and honest Realtor!!!!
Thanks, Amy for epitomizing the definition of the word Realtor and for being an exceptional friend.
Martha Dominguez

Amy was instrumental in helping us get the property we wanted in Lake Arrowhead. Since it was a short sale and the process was lengthy, she has kept us informed every step of the way. She had also answered all of our questions promptly and I would highly recommend her to potential buyers. Shane and Lacey Chao
*******************************
Hi Amy, Well it took two of us but I think we put something nice together -
Amy was really great during our search for a vacation home. We were looking for a property in a certain price range that kept getting smaller. She never showed any impatience during our nearly six month search. Amy was always very upbeat, helpful and understanding especially when we had to bring our 4 year old twins. Amy is extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market in the mountain area and I would highly recommed her to all of my friends and family.Raul and Marcela Ponce
******************************
John and I have been going back and forth with the testimonial...see if this will work for you:
It has been nearly a year since we began our search for the perfect mountain retreat. At that time, owning a home in the mountains - - a second home nearly three hours away from our full-time residence - - seemed like an impossible dream. When we decided to investigate Crestline, we did some research online and found your website. You seemed to be honest, energetic, and ethical, and after meeting you, we are so thankful we found you first! Your enthusiasm for living in this beautiful area was reassuring, and contagious. You guided us through many homes, on many Saturdays, and helped us determine a list of priorities for our home. Finally, when we found the perfect one, you were just as excited as we were (because it is a GREAT house!).
Escrow from a distance was quite an experience - - a bank-owned property, and an appraiser who was afraid to drive in the snow! - - yet you managed to keep it moving forward efficiently, while never losing your professionalism, your wonderful sense of humor, or your positive attitude. After escrow closed, you certainly went beyond the customary agent responsibility by making yourself available to coordinate a water leak repair and monitor the deck work for us.
It has been six months since escrow closed, and we are still in awe that we own a piece of this magical place! We welcomed summer by spending a full two weeks here, and it was so hard to leave. We can't wait to retire so we can live up here full-time! Crestline is so beautiful, and we have already made many friendly contacts within the community, everyone is so nice. The best part is, we also gained some great friends in you and Jeremy and we are looking forward to nurturing a great friendship.
Best wishes and appreciation to you.
~John and Lisa McKinley

I HAVE A FRIEND THAT LIVES HERE IN CRESTLINE AND HER HUSBAND HAD A HEART ATTACK AND DIED LAST MONTH. THEY HAD A VERY, VERY OLD HOME THAT NEEDED MUCH WORK, INSIDE AND OUT. I GAVE HER NAMES OF 3 REAL ESTATE COMPANIES HERE IN CRESTLINE FOR HER TO ASK THEM TO GIVE HER AN IDEA WHAT THEY WOULD LIST AND SELL IT FOR HER. ONE REALTY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THAT THEY WERE NOT INTERESTED BECAUSE IT WOULD TAKE TOO MUCH EFFORT. A DIFFERENT REALTY COMPANY CAME OUT WITH SEVERAL AGENTS AND LOOKED IT OVER, INSIDE AND OUT AND TOLD HER TO TELL ME, BILL AVARELL, THAT IT WAS NOT SALEABLE BECAUSE OF ALL THE WORK TO UP GRADE IT! THE THIRD REAL ESTATE COMPANY SENT AMY STEELE, TO LOOK IT OVER AND SHE LISTED IT FOR THIS WIDOW. IT WAS NECESSARY FOR HER TO SELL IT BECAUSE SHE HAS 2 CHILDREN STILL AT HOME. THIS ONLY TOOK YOU A SHORT TIME TO FIND BUYERS FOR HER. THIS WAS A WONDERFUL EFFORT ON YOUR PART! THANKS FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND EFFORT THIS FAMILY IS NOW MORE SOLVENT. BECAUSE OF YOUR EFFORT TO SELL THE ABOVE HOME SO QUICKLY, I LISTED A 3 BEDROOM, 1.5 BATHROOM NEW HOME WITH YOU AND IT ONLY TOOK YOU 4 DAYS TO FIND A BUYER FOR MY HOME. I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU SOLD THESE TWO SO QUICKLY? MAYBE WITH THE HELP OF YOUR EXCELLENT WEB SITE AND OR MAYBE BECAUSE OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF THE MARKET? I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO YOU HELPING ME SELL MY NEXT NEW HOMES ALSO

Amy,
When Rusty and I decided to start looking for a house we were not sure what city to start looking in first. We knew we needed to stay in San Bernardino county due to jobs and family but we had become tired of normal city life. So the search began, first just looking to see what was out there then looking to see what we could realistically afford. I came upon a website that contained a virtual tour of a house that was awesome and the way it was presented on the virtual tour that you created captured me heart and soul. I just knew I had to see this house. It called to me (sounds corny, but it is true). I just couldn't stop thinking about that house. I must have looked at it a hundred times before calling you to set up a time to go and see it. We got up there early and just fell in love with it at first sight. You where so patient to allow us to walk through and just dream about what the possibilities where if someone wanted to put the time into the house. We left there so excited and knew we wanted the house. Through a ton of emails and trips up the mountain, we all finally made the deal happen. You made purchasing a house seem so easy and stress free you explained everything just the way Rusty and I could understand it. I thank God everyday for you and that you decided to become a real estate agent so that one day you would list a house that would one day be my dream home. It was a God thing all the way around, because not only did I buy my dream home but I have gained a good friend who I know will be part of my husbands and my life for a long time to come. Thank you so much for all that you did and all that you continue to do to help us with, as we get settled into our new home. I would and will recommend you to anyone who wants a honest, and faith driven real estate agent to sell there home or purchase a home. You are a very easy to get a hold of person who at a drop of a hat meets you or will stay late if need be to accommodate your clients. Thank you again and God Bless you and your family, Christina and Rusty
***********************************
Amy, I want to thank you for helping me sell my property. I knew that the house would be hard to show. I appreciate all of your efforts and determination you put into this sale. I know your knowledge of the mountain area increased my options for the house to be sold. Thank you, Brenda
******************************
Dear Amy,Thank you so much for your e-mail! I'm very glad to hear that the lots
are officially mine now!
Thank you so much for all your help. You did an excellent job and I
have always felt "safe" buying from you. I want to thank your for your excellent job. It was a pleasure to work with you. You were at all times very friendly and helpful.As I live abroad I was afraid that buying a lot in California would be very difficult for me. I knew that I would not have the chance to visit the property and that I would have to buy it "unseen". Amy, you have taken the extra work and have visited the lot more than once and have taken pictures for me to keep me updated - and you still do so that I can even see the seasonal changes of my new lot. Thank you very much! I was not familiar with buying real estate in California. There were some differences to the buying procedure I had known, but you explained and clarified all my questions to my complete satisfaction.I highly appreciate that you have always been prompt and effective to all my questions and e-mails. This made the purchase a stress-free and comfortable experience. I have always felt "safe" having you as an excellent partner.Without hesitation, I would highly recommend you. Thanks for taking such good care!Ursula Heiduck
******************************
Hi Amy, Thank you for the very professional work you did in selling my lots to a foreign buyer. I think the beautiful pictures of the lots and surrounding wooded area you posted on your outstanding website were a big help in attracting potential buyers. I know you really went out of your way to escort potential buyers to the property which is some distance from your office. I appreciate the way you handled all aspects of the sale, including finding a qualified buyer, obtaining information from county records, opening and closing the escrow in record time. And above all, keeping in touch with me at all times as to how the sale was progressing. I felt very comfortable knowing the sale of my property was in capable, ethical and caring hands. I strongly recommend that anyone considering buying or selling property in the Crestline/Lake Arrowhead area contact you and make use of your truly excellent services. Cordially and With Best Wishes for Future Sales, -Don Spiegel
