Kitchen stove source of Wednesday night Hidden Valley Lake home fire

HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE, Calif. – A Hidden Valley Lake home sustained serious damage from a Wednesday night fire that fire officials have traced back to a kitchen stove.


The fire took place at 19827 Bear Valley Road, and was first reported at 7:46 p.m., according to a report from South Lake County Fire Protection District.


The district, in cooperation with Cal Fire, reported that resources responding to the home included 14 firefighters, three engine companies, one medic company, a water tender, a chief officer, two mutual aid companies and a rescue unit.


The fire was contained at approximately 8:20 p.m., but not fully controlled until 10:41 p.m., the district reported.
