Hayden Lake waterfront homes for sale offer a beautiful setting for an active lifestlye.  Located just 10 minutes from Lake Coeur d'Alene, Hayden Lake is a little more off the beaten track. Waterfront homes for sale on Hayden Lake this time of year are at a seasonal low number.  Sellers often believe that during the holidays and winter months buyers won't be out looking for waterfront homes for sale.  Sometimes there is a challenge with access in snowy weather in some of the more outlying areas.  Hayden Lake River Waterfront homes for sale that are occupied year round may have sellers who want a break from showings through the cold winter months. Whatever the reason for the lower inventory of Hayden Lake waterfront homes for sale, you as a buyer can be sure of one thing - these waterfro...

Let's take a look at the market activity for waterfront homes for sale on Hayden Lake in 2012.  Year to date, as of 9/7/12, there are 40 homes currently listed for sale.  Six home sales are pending and 11 sales have closed. In January of this year I noted that waterfront homes for sale on Hayden Lake saw light activity in 2011 compared to previous years.  Inventory was relatively low and buyers are scarce for the higher priced waterfront homes on Hayden Lake.  At the end of 2011 there were just 17 actively listed waterfront homes for sale on Hayden Lake.  Our current number stands at 40 homes for sale but many of these will be withdrawn from the market once winter arrives.  It looks like the number of waterfront home sales on Hayden Lake in 2012 will outpace 2011.  Last year there were ...

The Idaho Department of Lands approved a controversial new 46 boat dock to be constructed on the northwest side of Hayden Lake.  The Falls At Hayden Lake Homeowner's Association was granted the encroachment permit for a 23 slip dock, with each slip accommodating two boats.  The Falls At Hayden Lake is a controversial waterfront development scheduled for construction later this year. The request for approval brought a lot of resistance from current Hayden Lake waterfront property owners.  They have seen increased boat traffic through the years and dread the addition of 46 more boats and the accompanying traffic and noise.  Locals also worry that the dock will establish a precedence and encourage further development along the shoreline. Todd Stam, one of the developers of The Falls At Hay...

If you are buying or selling luxury real estate in Hayden or Hayden Lake, Idaho, here is some valuable information for you.  Let me know if you would like me to email these graphs to you full size so they will be easier for you to read.  The graphs might be easier to read at http://activerain.com/blogs/jscharf My graphs for the Hayden MLS area show where the market activity is in specific price bands from $400K and above.  I like to take the stats for the whole market area and break them down into different price bands and specific communities.  If you check out my separate but identical grafts for Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls and North Idaho, you will see that the activity varies by town.  Proving that yes, all markets are LOCAL!  Home values and market activity will vary from town to tow...

It was that time of year again in Hayden Lake, Idaho. From July 30th thru August 2nd the balls were flying and the stakes were high at one of the Northwest's top golf events of the year.  A Member Tradition Since 1962. Everyone looks forward to this fun-filled week of great social events, spectacular weather, awesome Hayden Lake views, and great play.  The Hayden Lake Country Club staff is committed to keeping this tradition alive.  Wednesday, July 30th was Registration, practice rounds and a Cocktail party on the Deck for Contestants and their Wives/Guests.  Thursday, July 31th was First Round.  From these scores the low 10 members and the low 10 guests were paired for the Horse Race on Friday.  That evening the Contestants and their Wives/Guests were treated to a Complimentary STAG (n...

Hayden Lake, Idaho - Independance Day Celebration 2008 This is the life... Sitting on the deck at the Hayden Lake Country Club watching the Fireworks display over the Lake while a live band plays to the beat of the display.  No traffic to fight or heavy crowds.  Dinner and drinks were served while we waited and watch.   My Cousins and their family escaped the fires in Southern California and joined us.  It was a great time for all. Fireworks Barge towing out to start display. Boats coming in to watch. One of the Lake Neighbors setting off their fireworks before the Main Event. And so they begin!  Newlyweds; Erik and Shannon Simmons are mesmerized by the awesome display!   Shannon, Erik, Katie & Kristen Simmons glowing with 4th of July Spirit!  Tim Jank & Wayne Simmons Glowing with enthu...
