| Description |
Modoc County, located In the far northeast corner of California, is often called the "place where the west still lives" and is frequently compared to the beautiful expanses of Montana.
The warm, dry summers encourage camping, hiking, fishing, and water sports against the backdrop of the uniquely beautiful Warner Mountains, with their clear alpine streams and a high desert dotted with serene lakes. An ideal habitat for diverse wildlife, the area is home to bald eagles, peregrine falcons, goshawks, golden eagles, Rocky Mountain mule deer and elk, wild horses, burros and pronghorn antelope.
This lot is located in the California Pines, a beautiful community located just under 30 miles southwest of the City of Alturas. California Pines covers 15,000 acres surrounded by 2 million acres of the Modoc National Forest.
California Pines is a peaceful and uncrowded retreat with green meadows, towering pines and trickling streams. If you want a place to escape and become part of a tranquil and laid-back community, then come to California Pines and escape to this outdoor paradise.
The community is served by a 4,400 foot airstrip.
The Hill Units of California Pines are almost all covered with tall pine, cedar and juniper trees. The elevation in the Hill Units varies from 5,000 to 6,400 feet. Enjoy three stocked trout ponds and three campgrounds there. Seasonal streams and a variety of springs also dot the hillside.
Escape to California Pines! Use your lot as a very private, serene campground. Or build a retreat in this paradise! Construction in the Hill Units will require a private well and septic system. Power is provided by Surprise Valley Electric. The living space must be no less than 500 square feet, you must drill a well and install a septic system, and you can extend electric lines or install solar power.
The California Pines Property Owners Association maintains common areas for the benefit of the property owners, residents and the general public. The annual POA fee of $95 is the responsibility of the buyer.
The California Pines Lodge sits on a small peninsula surrounded by California Pines Lake, right next to Donavan Reservoir, which is a haven for Canadian Snow Geese, White Pelicans, Cranes, and many other wild birds and animals of all kinds. The 8,000 square foot lodge features guest rooms, a restaurant, lounge, banquet room and activity room. The grounds of the lodge include a swimming pool and two paddle-tennis courts.
