Notes
  • Significance: The Cord Cabin is one of 32 historic guest cabins contributing to the Camp Richardson Resort Historic District, representing the period of significance for the resort (1926-1940). The Cord cabin is an example of "resort rustic" architecture typical of resorts associated with the outdoor recreational movement in the Sierra Nevada, automobile travel and the expansion of the State Highway system. Camp Richardson Resort was established around 1919 by Alonzo Richardson although most of the extant buildings were constructed between 1926 and 1960. A number of the first buildings were purchased from the old Grove Resort, and moved to Camp Richardson. All the guest cabins were named after popular automobiles or oil and gas companies since, beginning in 1911, Richardson owned and operated the first auto stage line between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe.
