Congratulations!
You have decided to purchase a home up here in beautiful Crestline, or are thinking about buying one. You'll be joining the ranks of hundreds of families who realize that home ownership offers a number of benefits including building equity, saving for the future, and creating an environment for your family. When you own your own home, your hard-earned dollars contribute to your mortgage. The equity you earn is yours. Over time, your home will increase in value.

Crestline is a historic community with a rich history of Native Americans, sawmills, beach clubs and more.

Cabins up here range from old (early 1900s) to brand new with all the modern touches. We have two parts to Crestline's business district, Top Town with restaurants and shops, and downtown with more restaurants, antique stores, coffee shops, movie rentals, grocery and more. Lake Gregory is one of the main features of Crestline. It is a 150 acre lake and recreational area with boating, swimming, fishing, baseball, and picnics. A 2.5 mile fitness trails goes around the lake, with fitness stations along the trail to try your arms, legs, and abs with! Take in the gorgeous views from all around the trail, and remember that you now own a piece of this paradise!
