The Lost Sierra

Discover the beauty and tranquility of the ‘Lost Sierra’! Less than an hour from Reno and Truckee-Tahoe, the remote forests and alpine lakes surrounding the communities of Clio and Graeagle are a slice of wilderness paradise. For those looking to build their dream home from the ground up, or enjoy an active lifestyle without the crowds in Tahoe, this is the perfect place to explore.

Plumas County provides plenty of outdoor year-round activities to entice residents and visitors, including hiking, biking, boating, golf, fishing, Nordic and back-country skiing as well as snowmobiling.

Plunge into the sparkling water of one of the dozens of alpine lakes in the Lakes Basin Recreation Area, lure a trout from the Middle Fork of the Feather River, spot a bald eagle in the Sierra Valley, or hike along the renowned Pacific Crest Trail.

Homes and ready-build homesites are scattered throughout county. Luxury turnkey options are also available at the Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Nakoma Resort in Clio.
