We experienced an unseasonably strong winter storm Sunday night and Monday! Bass Lake, California received over a foot of heavy, wet snow which caused downed trees and power lines. Some of the nearby towns, such as Oakhurst, North Fork, and Ahwahnee, also received measurable amounts of snow and lost power. As of 3:30pm this afternoon, the power was still out at Bass Lake and portions of the other areas as well.
Our Bass Lake Realty office in the Pines Village is temporarily closed due to the outage. We have a couple of options if you need to contact any of our Realtors® or staff. You may call the main office line at 559-642-3600 and the answering service will direct you to our on-call person for help or to leave messages. Our location in the Junction Plaza in Oakhurst does have power, and is open for business, limited only by our agents’ ability to actually get there.
If your home is listed with our office, or is on the vacation rental program, we are in the process of trying to get out and discover if there have been any damages. Feel free to contact us or to contact your agent if you have specific concerns or questions. Additionally, Bass Lake Dam Cam is temporarily out of service due to the power outage.
Although PG&E personnel have been out and about working diligently to repair poles and lines, they have not been able to give us any updated information as to when we can all expect the power situation to return to normal. The telephone number to check the status of power at your home is (800) 743-5002.
