Consisting of gently rolling, low grassy hills dotted with wild pear and other trees, Wild Pear Shores was originally a large farm along the eastern shore of Douglas Lake. Surrounded by the development, spring-fed Dalton Lake feeds into Douglas Lake and has a constant year-round water level. There are 149 lots, ranging in size from over 1 acre to 25+ acres, within the Wild Pear Shores development. Wild Pear Shores features curbed streets, underground utilities, a private boat dock and ramp, restrictive covenants, and sandy shoreline with easy water entry.
Natural gas is provided by Jefferson-Cocke Counties Utility District while electric service is provided by Appalachian Electric Cooperative. Owners can choose to have well water or have their water provided by the Dandridge Water Management Facility. Two companies offer curb-side trash pickup.
Early on, every lot in Wild Pear Shores had been reviewed by TVA for owners to build above the 1003 elevation, although residents needed to submit a detailed 26A if building below the 1007 elevation line. TVA REGULATIONS CHANGE OVER TIME: PLEASE CONFIRM WITH TVA TO DETERMINE WHAT PORTION OF ANY LOT IS CONSIDERED "BUILDABLE."
In order to maintain the common areas of the development, the Association has annual dues, which may not exceed $150.00 per lot per year. The Board of Directors of the Association sets the annual dues at the beginning of each year. Each property in the development is subject to Restrictive Covenants which maintain the overall attractiveness of the development as well as consistent property values.
