About Iron Horse
Iron Horse is a quiet mountain neighborhood tucked into the pine forests of Plumas County in northeastern California. Sitting at around 4,900 feet near Lake Davis and Portola, it offers a peaceful rural setting with spaced-out homes, tall timber, and crisp mountain air. For groceries, local dining, and daily essentials, residents take a quick drive into neighboring Portola, keeping everyday conveniences close at hand.
Life here naturally revolves around the outdoors. Lake Davis sits practically in your backyard, making it easy to spend weekends trout fishing, kayaking, hiking scenic trails, or camping under starry skies. Winters bring plenty of snow for snowshoeing and snowmobiling right from home. Families connect to the wider Plumas County school system, and the overall pace is ideal for anyone seeking privacy, fresh air, and classic Sierra mountain living.
