Mark Twain and Bret Harte may have given this resort town its name, but it's the seasonal events that make this mountian resort community a popular spot to visit.
Located about a mile off Highway 108 at 3,800 feet above sea level, it offers everything from golf and swimming to shopping, gourmet dining and overnight lodging. Twain Harte visitors can enjoy snow in the winter and a way to beat the heat of the scorching summer months.
The population of Twain Harte is about 2,500, but during the summer months 20,000 can fill up the village.
Each spring ushers in a new season at the Twain Harte Golf Club. The club was built in 1960 and sees scores of golfers on the greens from late spring through October.During the summer, Movies-Under-the-Stars are played at dusk every Friday night. Music concerts are held on Saturday evenings from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Rotary Stage in Eproson Park. Admission is free, but donations are welcome.
The community hosts a large art and wine festival each summer. In the fall of 2006 the first Oktoberfest was held in Twain Harte.
In the early 1800's Twain Harte was a pristine forest where Me-Wuk Indians lived with deer, bear, antelope, elk, and smaller animals.
Pat Williams acquired 640 acres of land, including Twain Harte Meadow, in 1862 and built a ranch house near the famous Twain Harte Arch. The land was first subdivided in 1924 by Alonzo Wood and his wife Keturah. The woods names their land Twain Harte Lodge after Mr. Wood's favorite authors.
