Colfax is more than just a tiny town on a stretch of interstate from Auburn to Truckee. Rich in history and recreation, it’s an ideal location – far enough from the hustle and bustle of Sacramento and Roseville, and west enough of the snow-laden upscale resort communities of Tahoe. It’s proximity to Interstate 80, however, allows quick and easy access to anywhere you want to be.

While most of Colfax is a picturesque historic town, surrounded by three rivers and endless trails to discover, Mink Creek brings a bit of modern-day suburbia to a charming Old West whistle stop. The stand-alone subdivision is comprised of modular homes that look anything but, adorned in refreshing and uplifting hues. Local schools are located less than two miles away.
