1.02 Acres for Sale in Alturas, California

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. The high desert is an ideal habitat for diverse wildlife, including 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 Hill Units of California Pines, 30 miles southwest of the City of Alturas. California Pines covers 15,000 acres surrounded by 2 million acres of the Modoc National Forest.

The Hill Units are almost all covered with tall pine, cedar and juniper trees. The elevation there varies from 5,000 to 6,400 feet. Enjoy three stocked trout ponds, streams and a variety of springs that dot the hillside.  

Use your lot as your very private, serene campground! RVs and camping are permissible for up to 30 days of a calendar year. This lot is in the community’s “Unit 5”, considered to be “Summer Use Only” since the roads are not snow plowed. 

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 California Pines Lodge sits on a small peninsula surrounded by California Pines Lake, right next to Donavan Reservoir, which is a haven for wild birds and animals of all kinds. The lodge features guest rooms, a restaurant, lounge, banquet room and activity room. The grounds include a swimming pool and two paddle-tennis courts.
