Pine Harbor
Named lake subdivision
Overview
An older Onalaska-area lake subdivision offering modest homes and lots with a small POA and community ramp/park.
Waterfront / lake access
Community channel and ramp connect to Lake Livingston; usability can be affected by channel and water conditions, so boaters should inspect access in person.
Typical homes and lot sizes
Many 1970s-era cottages and compact homes, often 1,000–1,500 square feet. Individual lots commonly appear around 0.15 acre; combined lots of roughly 0.25–0.4 acre are common.
HOA / POA
Pine Harbor Estates POA. Get current dues from the association before closing.
Amenities
Community park and boat ramp; a simpler amenity package than the larger gated lake subdivisions.
Distance to Livingston
Approximately 15–18 miles / about 20–25 minutes.
Grocery / healthcare proximity
Close to Onalaska grocery and lake services. Livingston's larger shopping and hospital are generally 20–30 minutes away.
School district
Onalaska ISD per Polk Central Appraisal District tax records. Confirm the parcel with the district before you rely on it.
Internet availability
Address-specific wired/fixed-wireless service; older sections should be checked carefully for actual speed and installation cost.
Utilities
Sam Houston EC is typical for electricity. Community/public water and septic/sewer status can vary; verify taps, septic records and trash service for the property.
Boat ramps / marina access
POA park boat ramp. The POA has emphasized use to help keep the channel open, so buyers with larger boats should evaluate depth/access.
Restrictions
POA restrictions apply, and the architectural committee must be contacted for new construction. Review current rules before adding structures or placing a home.
High for dues/ramp; medium for utilities and current channel conditions.
School district from Polk Central Appraisal District tax records (sample of parcels). Confirm the exact parcel with the district.
Before you buy here
Confirm the school district for the parcel with the district itself, not from a mailing address. Get a resale certificate from any HOA or POA. Check broadband at the specific address. For waterfront, review the survey, flood zone, elevation certificate and any dock or bulkhead permits. The Rural Buyer’s Checklist lists who to call.
