Welcome to the Snowshoe Springs Homeowners' Association!
Snowshoe Springs is a private community located in Dorrington, California, 5,000 feet above sea level in California's legendary Sierra Nevada Mountains. Located in Calaveras County, Dorrington has been part of a rich history that includes the California Gold Rush and is near some of the world's most beautiful sites, such as Calaveras Big Trees State Park and the Stanislaus River. Snowshoe Springs is a quaint community with approximately 300 homes and a local lake, Snowshoe Lake, where fun family memories have been made for generations.
Here, you will find helpful information about our Board of Director's Meetings, Calendar of Events, Rules & Regulations that govern the SSHA, various committee information, and useful local phone numbers and websites. This website includes membership information; current and past newsletters; information about local community resources and lot clearing for fire safety; and more.
The documents that govern the SSHA and all the properties in the Snowshoe Springs Homeowners Association, the CC&Rs, and Association By-Laws, have some differences from other homeowners associations in California. The CC&Rs (covenants, conditions, and restrictions) accompany all property deeds in Snowshoe Springs and are mandatory whether or not a property owner has joined the Association in a particular year. The CC&Rs are administered by the SSHA's Board of Directors.
"If you have any questions about the SSA or your property, including questions about the local Highway 4 community and/or county resources, please contact our Association Manager, Michelle Kuffler. You can reach Michelle by using our online form on the “Contact Us” page, or directly at [email protected]


The Meadow
A lush and gorgeous meadow. Great for taking photos and looking at the Corn Lillies, various grasses and lush trees!
The Lake
Snowshoe Springs Lake is a private lake reserved for Snowshoe homeowners and their guests only. No dogs or bicycles allowed. It offers fishing (kids under 13), frogs not included, and waterfowl, and swimming!
*No dogs is only due to the fact that the watershed drains into a public lake where people swim. It is a health hazard to have dog feces around the lake for this purpose.*
Lake Pathways & Bridges
Walking around the lake for fitness or relaxation is available to Snowshoe Springs Homeowners and their guests. This trail has been named "Jennings Lakeside Trail" for Dave Jennings, our long time, now retired Maintenance Manager. You will still see him around!
