Clipper Mills, CA

Sitting at an elevation of about 3,500 feet in Butte County, Clipper Mills is a small, quiet mountain community in the northern Sierra foothills. With fewer than two hundred residents, the area is defined by dense pine forests, quiet backroads, and a rich logging history that dates back to the 1850s. It attracts people who value privacy, wide-open acreage, and four distinct seasons surrounded by the Plumas National Forest, while still being within an hour's drive of Oroville and Marysville.
