Lee Rice - Gold Beach Real Estate ProfessionalA few years back in 2004, I found Gold Beach and began the Adventure of my life. After spending my first summer in Gold Beach, not only did I not want to go home but I knew I had to make plans for a big change in my life. My adventures began by inviting my children to join me on the Rogue - rafting, kayaking, and of course the wonderful fishing (a sport that I have enjoyed since childhood). In Gold Beach, the salmon are plentiful and the wildlife awaits you each day.

Being very busy and excelling in my real estate career in both Southern California and Arizona did not seem to matter. Gold Beach was calling and there was no way that I could pass up the invitation. I spent the next four years getting to know Gold Beach better and finally made Gold Beach my permanent home. I have never looked back and am very happy about my choice.
