On March 20, 2023 I drove around the neighborhood of Serene Lakes which iis the neighborhood up on Donner Summit. It was just amazing to look at how the snow had settled onto the homes there. Most homeowners up there did some snow removal on their decks and roofs which was absolutely necessary to avoid structural damage to the home. Shoveling costs went from $65. an hour per guy to over $200. an hour depending on where they were shoveling. If they were up on a roof it was at the higher end of that estimate as there's high liability insurance and workers comp insurance that is very expensive.
All that being said, Serene Lakes is a wonderful place to have a home. It's closer to the Bay Area, Sugar Bowl and Royal George ski areas are so close, trails are right near by and it is SERENE. It's just beautiful.
