ROOM TO ROAM - Nakoma life homesites

What sets the Nakoma community apart from resort developments in Truckee and Lake Tahoe is the sheer diversity found in the Lost Sierra landscape itself.

With more than 1,200 acres, Nakoma offers plenty of elbow room to explore beautiful pine, fir and juniper forests via the on-site trail system. What’s even more impressive is that Nakoma’s average homesite is 2+ acres, which then go up to 15 acres in the Signature Series Homesite offerings.

Homesite sizes alone offer a value proposition unheard of in Truckee or Lake Tahoe. Consider this: Nakoma’s current listed lots average about a tenth the per-acre price of Tahoe Donner.

But it’s the character of the homesites themselves that are the real secret to Nakoma Life.

VARIED LANDSCAPES

From the edge of the canyon that hides the meandering Middle Fork of the Feather River — a federally designated Wild-&-Scenic River, no less — to the top of the community, the elevation gains 1,000 feet from a base elevation of about 5,000 feet. That 1,000-foot gain means your mountain-modern custom home at Nakoma may be nestled amongst pine trees bordering the vast Plumas National Forest, or be perched dramatically over the Feather River or perhaps situated high on a secluded mountain top above fragrant juniper where your views of Mt. Washington, Elwell Peak and Eureka Peak only end when the sun sets. 

If you want to be where the action is, choose a lot in the Nakoma Resort core. You’ll be close to the Dragon Golf Course, a short stroll to the Frank Lloyd Wright Lodge with its amazing food and beverage options, plus the Spa at Nakoma, or have easy access to the absolutely stunning Altitude Recreation Center, Nakoma’s gathering place for the young and young-at-heart!

INFRASTRUCTURE… INDEED!

It’s one thing to invest in a raw homesite in Plumas County or Sierra County then spend even more money on four-season access roads, drilling a well, installing a septic system and arranging for reliable power.

Forget those headaches at Nakoma! All homesites in the gated community are served and ready with water, sewer, electric, telephone, and, for those working or learning remotely — crucial high-speed fiber-optic cable.

Moreover, the Nakoma Community Association’s Design Review Committee offers a supportive, builder-friendly process. And compared to Truckee and Lake Tahoe custom home builds, Plumas County’s permit fees are lower and with less costly regulatory add-ons.

And for those who “like” snow but don’t necessarily want to be plowing it around their driveway all winter, Nakoma has milder winters than Truckee-Tahoe, with corresponding snow loads in the community at 90 lbs per square foot, which means less engineering is needed in your custom home design
