Green Valley Lake



Green Valley Lake, at 6,850 feet in the San Bernardino Mountains, is Southern California's highest resort town, known as the "Lake Above the Clouds." Established in the late 19th century, it began as a toll station operated by Ben Pitts and later the Tillitt family, who also ran a store and gas station. Extensive logging in the early 1900s transformed the area until Harry "Green Valley Mac" McMullen initiated the creation of a dam in 1926, forming the 9-acre lake. Today, it's a peaceful retreat offering fishing, boating, and winter sports, rich in history and natural beauty.
