Welcome to Lake Arrowhead 

best place I’ve ever lived.” That’s how many 

Lake Arrowhead residents describe their com- 

“The 

munity. First-time visitors get the sense of what 

they mean as they are welcomed to Lake Arrowhead Village 

to enjoy a concert in the summer or experience snow for 

the first time in the winter. 

Whether you are visiting Lake Arrowhead for the first time, 

you are a weekender or live here full time, there are always 

new things to discover about this community a mile in the sky. 

The lake itself covers 784 acres with over 14 miles of shoreline, 

has an average depth of 100 feet and is located at 5,106 

feet above sea level. 

The manmade lake was built to provide water to the citrus 

groves in the Redlands and Riverside areas. Visitors often 

ask about the blue tower that rises 195 feet above the lake. 

It was originally designed to convey water “down the hill” to 

San Bernardino and Riverside counties. 

Today Lake Arrowhead provides drinking water to the 

communities served by the Lake Arrowhead Community Services 

District (see page 20). The lake is owned by the Arrowhead 

Lake Association (page 8), whose members may use 

the lake for fishing, swimming and boating. ALA also owns 

two beach clubs on the lake and the reserve strip around the 

lake that provides a trail on which members can walk. 

The first settlers of Lake Arrowhead—known then as Little 

Bear Lake—were loggers. That’s no surprise as the community 

is surrounded by the San Bernardino National Forest. 

Other early visitors came to make dozens of movies in the 

mountains. 

Today visitors can enjoy movies made by up and coming 

filmmakers at the annual Lake Arrowhead Film 

Festival and they can take in some live theater put on 

by the Lake Arrowhead Repertory Theatre Company. 

A number of athletes have discovered Lake Arrowhead is 

a good place to train because of the altitude and the crisp, 

clean air. Michelle Kwan trained here in the past at the Ice 

Castle International Training Center. 

The pace in the mountain communities is less frenzied than 

that in bigger cities. Residents, both full- and part-time, forge 

strong friendships and enjoy visiting while shopping in the lo- 


cal stores and picking up their mail at one of the local post 

offices. All mail is delivered to post office boxes, making mail 

call a social event. 

Groceries are available at Stater Bros. in Lake Arrowhead 

Village or at Jensen’s Finest Foods in 

Blue Jay. Gas stations are located on Highway 18 

in Rimforest and in Blue Jay Village. Banking can be done 

in both Lake Arrowhead Village and Blue Jay Village, our two 

“downtowns.” 

If you enjoy music, hiking, theater, dance, fine dining or 

just love to browse in shops, you’ll find it all here in Lake 

Arrowhead. This Almanac will provide you with an initial 

introduction to this gem of a community.

Lake Arrowhead is privately owned by the Arrowhead 

Lake Association (ALA) for the recreational use and 

enjoyment of all its members, their families and their 

guests. ALA owns and operates the lake, Burnt Mill and Tavern 

Bay Beach Clubs, Marina Peninsula Park and Grass 

Valley Lake. ALA also owns and maintains property around 

the lake and maintains numerous accesses that allow property 

owners access to the lake at specified areas. 

The mission of the Arrowhead Lake Association is "to protect, 

operate and improve Lake Arrowhead and ALA properties, 

and to provide reasonable and safe recreational facilities 

in a fiscally responsible manner, with appropriate 

planning for the future." The members of the association elect 

seven directors, who are charged with this mission. 

All properties located within the boundary of Arrowhead 

Woods (except Lakewood A & B) have lake rights, giving the 

owners the right to use the lake for recreational purposes: 

fishing, swimming, boating and using the reserve strip and 

reserve strip addition for foot travel where designated. An 

access map is available at the ALA office. Only property owners 

who choose to be members of the association have access 

to association-provided improvements.

Mountains Community Hospital (MCH) is a full-service 

hospital with 17 medical/surgical beds and 

20 extended care and recovery beds. Physicians 

staff the MCH emergency department 24 hours a day. 

Inpatient services include acute and extended care, post-acute 

care rehabilitation and respite care. In addition to emergency services, 

outpatient diagnostic services include pulmonary function, 

laboratory, cardiac stress testing and radiology (X-ray, CT, ultrasound, 

bone density and mammography). Outpatient rehabilitation 

services include physical therapy, occupational therapy and 

speech therapy as well a primary care Medi-Cal Rural Clinic. 

MCH is Medicare and Medi-Cal certified and licensed by 

the State of California. MCH is one of the few small rural hospitals 

accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of 

Healthcare Organizations. MCH is proud of the quality of 

medical care it provides to the community and visitors. 

Mountains Community Hospital accepts Medicare, Medi-Cal, 

Aetna, IEHP, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, United Healthcare/Pacifi- 

Care, CCN, as well as indemnity insurance and workers’ compensation 

insurance. In addition the hospital also accepts a number 

of HMO and Senior Advantage contracts through cooperation 

with the local physicians and the Regal Medical Group. 

Physicians contract independently with insurance companies 

and, therefore, may not have the same insurance 

contracts as the hospital. Because of the many 

healthcare insurance options that exist, patients are encouraged 

to contact the physician’s office directly to confirm if the 

physician is a participating provider in a particular insurance 

plan. Although physicians are not MCH employees, the hospital 

is proud they chose MCH as a place to practice. 

The MCH Auxiliary has been providing volunteers to support 

the hospital since 1957. On an annual basis this amounts 

to over 11,000 hours. 

The Mountains Community Hospital Foundation was incorporated 

in 1991 and since that time has raised over $3 million to 

support the hospital. The nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation’s board 

is made up of approximately 30 members of the community.

Formed in 1923, the Arrowhead Woods Architectural 

Committee (AWAC) has as its mission preserving 

the character of the Arrowhead Woods, the residential 

area surrounding Lake Arrowhead. 

Property owners are required to obtain AWAC approval 

prior to making any exterior modifications, including but not 

limited to tree trimming and removal, new construction, remodels, 

additions, fencing, painting, roofing, retaining walls 

and any other exterior modification. 

EXTERIOR MODIFICATIONS 

All exterior modifications require prior AWAC approval. 

Applications, guidelines and fee schedules 

are available online at www.awac.biz. Please 

do not rely on your contractor to obtain approval—the homeowner 

is ultimately responsible. Fines and re-inspection fees 

may be incurred for failure to obtain prior AWAC approval. 

TREE TRIMMING AND REMOVAL 

In Arrowhead Woods, as in other forested areas, fuel 

load—the vegetation available to feed a wildfire—is a 

threat year round. Homeowners can lessen their risk 

and improve the chances for their residences to survive a wildfire 

by creating “defensible space” around their residences. 

Although AWAC promotes fuel reduction, all tree trimming 

and removal must first be approved by AWAC. Applications 

for tree trimming and/or removal can be found online 

at www.awac.biz. All applications must be accompanied by 

an application fee. Upon receipt of the completed application 

and fee, an inspector will review your request on site and 

you will be notified in writing of the decision. 

Tree work done without an approved permit will result 

in damage assessment against the property owner. 

AWAC finds trimming solely to improve a view especially 

offensive.

FIRE SAFE COUNCIL

www.arrowheadfsc.net 

T 

he ACFSC is a recognized 

501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation 

and operates largely with fed- 

eral grant monies, which come from the U.S. Forest Service 

(U.S. Dept. of Agriculture) and the Bureau of Land Management 

and are awarded and monitored by the California Fire Safe 

Council. As a nonprofit organization the ACFSC can accept 

donations from the public, which are tax deductible and 

much appreciated. 

According to its charter, the council serves the communities 

of Rimforest, Strawberry Flats, Twin Peaks, Agua Fria, Blue Jay, 

Lake Arrowhead, Deer Lodge Park, Cedar Glen, Arrowhead Villas, 

Skyforest and Crest Park. This area includes approximately 

110 square miles of critical wildland-urban interface within the 

San Bernardino National Forest. 

The ACFSC works closely with the U.S. Forest Service, Cal- 

Fire and County Fire, is a participating member of the Mountain 

Area Safety Task Force and Mountain Mutual Aid, and supports 

and promotes the healthy forest initiative Forest Care. 

Through its area risk mitigation (ARM) concept, the ACFSC, 

working with County Fire, helped protect Deer Lodge Park during 

the Grass Valley Fire. A similar effort has been implemented 

in Arrowhead Villas. 

The ACFSC is also involved in fuels reduction on access roads 

to make them accessible to emergency vehicles. In this cooperative 

effort with the Arrowhead Woods Architectural Committee, 

vegetation encroaching access roads is reduced within six to 

eight feet on either side of the access road. 

The council holds bi-monthly public meetings at Fire Station 

91, in which the fire agencies and the ACFSC present important 

issues about fire protection and work in progress. These meetings 

take place on the second Thursday of even-numbered months 

and start at 6:30 p.m.

Anonprofit 501(c)3 California corporation, the Mountain 

Rim Fire Safe Council’s bylaws state its purpose 

is “to provide education, exchange information 

and foster fire prevention and safety within the San 

Bernardino Mountain communities.” With our office located 

in Arrowbear Lake, we strive to achieve our mission of serving 

all mountaintop communities from Crestline to Green Valley 

Lake. 

As the original fire safe council in the Inland Empire, the 

MRFSC maintains cooperative relationships with the Mountain 

Area Task Force (which includes the U.S. Forest Service, 

Cal Fire, San Bernardino County Fire, local fire departments, 

Edison, Caltrans), Forest Care, the Burn Institute, and 14 other 

councils the MRFSC helped establish throughout the San 

Bernardino Mountains and the Inland Empire. 

When people live in a high fire hazard environment, the 

human-built environment becomes an important factor in predicting 

the loss of life and property. Simple things such as creating 

defensible space (clearing weeds and debris) and replacing 

shake roofs can make a significant difference in how 

one’s property will survive a wildfire. 

MRFSC is there to answer your questions on defensible 

space and fire prevention and to provide or direct you to 

resources to make your property as firesafe as possible. Remember, 

with regard to the next wildfire, it’s not IF, it’s WHEN!

In 2006 a unique effort was created to make the local 

forest healthier and reduce the fire risk posed by the 

heavy stands of trees in residential areas. With federal 

and state dollars, the San Bernardino National Forest 

Association, the U.S. Forest Service and Cal Fire banded 

together to offer landowners an economical way to thin 

their trees. 

After a professional forester surveys a homeowner’s property 

and makes recommendations for needed thinning work, 

the homeowners hire licensed contractors to do the suggested 

work. The homeowner receives back up to 75 percent of 

the cost of having the trees removed. 

Since its inception, the Forest Care program has helped 

treat more than 2,700 parcels in the mountain communities. 

The foresters have made many more educational visits 

in which they advise the property owners on steps they can 

take to make their homes more fire safe.

Wayne Palmer 

ABC President 

Building industry professionals make 

up the membership of the San 

Bernardino Mountains’ Association 

of Building Contractors (ABC). The members 

are dedicated to providing outstanding 

craftsmanship to mountain community 

residents. 

ABC members subscribe to a code of 

ethics. They pledge to uphold the highest 

standards of honesty, integrity and responsibility 

in their business dealings. 

ABC is a California nonprofit corporation. Its 

purpose is to promote goodwill and cooperation between its members, 

governmental agencies and the community. A board of directors whose 

members span the building trades governs ABC. The directors have many 

years of professional experience between them. 

Association members cover a wide range of trade specialties. 

ABC’s website has a contractor finder that mountain residents and 

visitors can use to locate quickly a building industry professional to 

meet their needs. Builders can also be found on ABC’s website by 

browsing through the entire list of available contractors. 

ABC members are committed to protecting the investment of 

each homeowner or business by delivering the highest quality 


work and insuring clients against unforeseen problems. 

Unlicensed contractors cannot legally perform jobs costing 

more than $500. ABC recommends homeowners 

and businesses contact the California Contractors State 

License Board at www.cslb.ca.gov to verify a contractor’s license. 

ABC engages in a wide variety of activities. They include lobbying 

contractors’ views to county, state and federal governments and 

the San Bernardino County Department of Building and Safety. 

ABC also reports changes in county codes and regulations to its membership 

via its monthly newsletter and website. 

ABC promotes the use of licensed contractors, especially its 

members, through its annual directory, newsletter, website and 

print advertising. It also supports the California Contractors State 

License Board in its efforts to prosecute unlicensed contractors. 

The organization also encourages cooperation between members 

of the association with informative monthly dinner meetings 

and other social functions, as is its strong support for community 

organizations like Rebuilding Together, which stages its annual 

Christmas In April Rebuilding Day on the last Saturday of 

April each year. 

Because of ABC members' generous commitments of talent, skill 

and professionalism, Rebuilding Together can continue providing 

warmer, safer and more independent living conditions for deserving 

elderly and disabled homeowners in our mountain communities. 

For the past 16 years, ABC and the Lake Arrowhead Communities 

Chamber of Commerce have staged the Mountain Home 

Improvement EXPO featuring remodeling, repair and rebuilding 

exhibits. The summer event is held at Lake Arrowhead Village.

The Lake Arrowhead Community Services District 

(LACSD) provides water and wastewater services to 

approximately 8,000 water customers and 11,000 

wastewater customers in the Lake Arrowhead community. Initially, 

in the 1920s and 1930s, the area was mainly a resort 

with summer cottages. However, over the years, Lake Arrowhead 

has become an area of permanent, semi-permanent 

and seasonal homes. 

LACSD is a self-governed special district responsible for 

water supply to Lake Arrowhead, and wastewater services to 

Lake Arrowhead, Arrowhead Villas, Cedar Glen, Blue Jay, 

Twin Peaks, Deer Lodge Park, Rimforest and Skyforest. Most 

of these areas lie within the Arrowhead Lake and Grass Valley 

watersheds. 

The district operates two water treatment plants, 19 water 

pumping stations, two wastewater treatment plants, 21 

wastewater pumping stations, 18 reservoir tanks and several 

hundred miles of pipelines.

square miles. There are numerous streams within the district’s 

service area; most of these streams flow northerly and are 

part of the Mojave River drainage basin. Lake Arrowhead, 

which is owned and operated by the Arrowhead Lake Association 

(ALA), serves the area as both a source of recreation 

and as the main drinking water supply. 

As of 2008, LACSD is allowed only 1,566 acre feet of 

lake water per calendar year, about half of the traditional demand 

in our community. The district has implemented strict 

water use efficiency policies, which are available for review 

on the website or at the district office. 

HOW TO PAY YOUR LACSD BILL 

Payments can be mailed to LACSD in the envelope provided 

with the bill or customers call the district office 

and pay by Visa or Mastercard over the telephone. 

Customers can also pay their bills online through the official 

online payment website at www.lakearrowheadcsd.com 

or apply for an automatic deduction from their bank account 

or credit card. 

In-person payments may be made at the district office during 

regular business hours from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Rim of the World 

Unified School District 

The Rim of the World Unified School District consists 

of seven school campuses from Lake Gregory to Running 

Springs. Over the years six of the schools have 

been granted California Distinguished School status and one 

was chosen as a California Model School. 

The Rim School District is the mountain’s largest employer 

and although budget cuts take a huge bite out of the district’s 

budget, they still turn out hundreds of graduates each 

year who are ready to take on the world through pursuing 

their college education, joining the workforce or joining the 

armed forces. In the past several years several graduating 

students have been accepted to our nation’s military academies 

and those graduates credit their families and their caring, 

excellent teachers and counselors. 

In many ways, the Rim of the World Unified School District 

truly is “Above the Rest.”

Protect 

Your Pets 

Living on the mountain sometimes requires thinking about 

things you’d never consider when living down the hill. 

It’s important to remember we cohabitate with wildlife and 

are in their backyard, which sometimes is our own as well. You’ve 

got to know what measures to take in order to keep your pets safe. 

Coyotes are natural predators and serve a purpose in their 

environment. Though there can be problems when humans and 

coyotes live in the same space, the number of issues can be greatly 

reduced by taking preventative measures to protect a pet and 

make the area around the home unattractive to coyotes. 

Pets make ideal meals for coyotes, and as coyotes have 

adapted to residential areas, they have become less fearful 

of humans and unafraid to attack small animals if given the 

opportunity. The best way a pet owner can protect a pet is by 

keeping the pet inside when unable to supervise the animal. 

This is especially crucial for small pets, such as cats and small 

dogs, which can make easier targets for coyotes. Large dogs 

must be monitored too because they can be injured during 

a fight with a roaming coyote. 

All animals should be brought in for the night or kept in 

a protective kennel after dark. Because pets should remain inside, 

their food and water should come inside with them. Coyotes 

will eat pet food, and leaving it out only serves to attract 

wildlife to the home. 

When walking your dog, it’s a good idea to bring 

a walking stick or something that will make a 

lot of noise. Keep your pet on a short leash and, 

if it’s off the leash, make sure it stays close so you have time 

to react if a coyote approaches. 

If a coyote approaches, make a lot of noise to scare it 

away, and make eye contact, yell, throw pebbles or pine cones 

in the general direction of the coyote, but don’t hurt it. Trying 

to look big and intimidating also helps. 

Remember, this is the animals’ natural habitat, and in order 

to share the environment, it’s important to keep safety in 

mind—the safety of your pet and that of the wildlife that makes 

living on the mountain so unique and enjoyable. 

Here is some important information to have:
