Where to Stay for Your Exhilarating High Sierra Resort-Style Vacation
Enjoy your resort vacation getaway at the Life Magazine 1997 award winning "Dream House" designed by Taliesin's John Rattenbury, protegé of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Located at the "viewful" Nakoma Resort, featured in Architectural Digest, and its Dragon Golf Course in spectacular Plumas County in the California Sierra.
Minutes to the extraordinary Lakes Basin recreation area, near the quaint mountain village of Graeagle, and with easy access to Lake Tahoe, California, and Reno, Nevada. And about a 2.5 hour drive from Sacramento. Enjoy golfing, fishing, hiking, biking, hunting, skiing, boating and kayaking in Lakes Basin, snow shoeing, amazing star gazing, dining, and gift shopping in nearby Graeagle.
The Red Sky
Magazine 'Dream House' by Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin
Gold Mountain is the location of the original Life Magazine "Dream House" designed by John Rattenbury. The Red Sky Dream House, located along the 16th fairway at the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Nakoma Golf Resort is a significantly expanded and superbly enhanced version of the original prototype.
The Red Sky Dream House offers a large Great Room, a billiards/library room with sunken bar
that also serves the full length deck (partially covered) overlooking the
golf course, large sun room overlooking the Nakoma 16th fairway and green, huge
master walk-in closet, enlarged master bath, two 'Ultra' spa tubs, high light
decks above 8' doors, ultra high efficiency 'Xtraordinaire' wood burning fireplace
(with catalytic converter; capable of heating the entire home!) ... and more.
The home is heated and air-conditioned by a high-efficiency geothermal ground-source
heat pump system for very low operating cost and extremely quiet operation.
The Red Sky Dream House is featured in The
House For Life. This independent site is intended to provide
a repository for information and images of the many interpretations of Rattenbury’s
House For Life design and for similar homes built along the lines of those
expounded in Rattenbury’s recent book bearing the same name. (Do you
know where and when
the first Life Magazine Dream House was built?)
Where is Gold Mountain, the Nakoma Golf Resort, and the Dragon Golf Course?
Our Gold Mountain vacation rental home is a one hour beautiful drive from to Truckee
with Lake Tahoe just beyond, and one hour to "The-Biggest-Little-City-in-the-World"
Reno, at 5000 feet in the breathtaking California Sierra, among mature pine
and cedar trees, between the scenic Middle Fork of the Feather
River and the outdoor wonderland Plumas National Forest, near
the getaway village of Graeagle. Gold Mountain is a gated community planned
by
Taliesin, the continuing architectural firm of Frank
Lloyd Wright. The surrounding area has something for everyone: golfing at
the Nakoma Golf Resort, fishing, hiking, biking, hunting, skiing, boating
and kayaking in Lakes Basin,
snow shoeing, amazing star gazing, dining, and shopping in nearby Graeagle.

mention of Gold Mountain and the Dream
House on Online Highways: "Come see for yourself why
Gold Mountain was chosen as the site for the 1997 Life Magazine Dream House."
About Plumas County and Graeagle
Graeagle is the quintessential Sierra
mountain village. Originally a logging town, Graeagle is now a wonderful
boutique shopping village as well as an idyllic setting for local fairs, jazz
concerts, and simply lazy afternoon floating on the Old Mill Pond.
The
area is renowned for its fabulous Sierra golf courses. The
Nakoma®
Golf Resort, with its 18-hole Robin Nelson-designed Dragon course,
challenges even the best of golfers and gives high-handicappers a collection
of excuses to share at the beautiful Nakoma clubhouse (designed by Frank Lloyd
Wright in 1924). Having a hard time on the undulating greens? No problem,
take in the stunning Sierra views and breathe the fresh mountain air, and
all will be well.
Plumas
County is famous for its mountain / meadow majesty. You will find no area
in the world more beautiful than the Plumas National Forest Lakes Basin region
20 minutes from Gold Mountain. And so unspoiled and uncrowded like Lake Tahoe
used to be decades ago!
