5mph road sign for oiling
Silver Beach Road was oiled June 28, 2011.  "Thank you" to Bill Coats for again organizing the oiling and to Tim Newman for grading the road prior to the oiling.  A big thank you to all the members that so generously support this effort.

Joan Little
This year marks the 75 year anniversary of Silver Beach. Joan Little shared some Silver Beach history with us. " The year was 1936.  At that time, when my Dad purchased the property, Lake Shore Homes was established, but the road did not go any further than their entrance. The Silver Beach property was just wilderness. A road had to be constructed past the Lake Shore Homes gate and wind around the hill to the west before any lots could be sold. The road that connected Silver Beach to Shore Acres was built many years later."

Address Marker Signs



The old way of marking our lots has country charm but does not help police, fire, or ambulance vehicles locate us in the event of an emergency.  The marker signs can be ordered by downloading the form and mailing it to the Stevens County Fire District in Clayton.


Address markers are blue on one side and green on the other to indicate increasing and decreasing addresses.
