Gary Paris, Broker Associate

With no obligation you can contact me with all your Real Estate questions, needs and wants.
Some of the areas that I service in Calaveras County are: Murphys which includes Forest Meadows, Avery, Arnold which includes Blue Lake Springs and Lakemont Pines, Big Trees Village which includes Camp Connell and Dorrington.

High Country Spa & Stove

High Country Spa and Stove Center has been doing business for nearly three decades. The caliber of hot tubs, fireplaces and stoves they sell and their related product knowledge has made them a success for many years. High Country Spa and Stove Center is proud of the work they produce and given the opportunity they would love to work with you!

Bill Deplitch worked as a building contractor in Calaveras County prior to opening High Country Spa and Stove Center. Bill constructed homes in the Arnold area from the late 70s to the early 90s. Today, along with his wife Barbara, Bill runs High Country Spa and Stove Center; son, Zachary does the service work, deliveries and installs.

The family owned operation was started in 1983 as a secondary business to compliment the existing Deplitch Construction Company. High Country Spa and Stove Center brings to the table a wealth of valuable construction experience. It is this experience that sets them apart from the rest. In addition to retail services, their background in building enables them to tackle an entire project from decks and hot tub enclosures to remodels.

Sequoia Woods Country Club offers a challenging 18-hole golf course in a beautiful mountain setting. Nestled in the western Sierra Nevada at a 4,000-foot elevation, this course makes dramatic use of the local terrain, combining the natural meadows and slopes of the first nine holes with the narrowed, pine tree-lined fairways of the second nine. The resulting course brings golfers challenging play and fabulous views.

The setting is casually elegant, with a menu that is both contemporary and familiar. Our excellent cuisine and service continue to satisfy and impress our guests, whether loyal repeat customers or new visitors to the area.
