Note: This is a federally-recognized reservation stewarded by the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians. The reservation spans 75 acres, a small portion of the Tribe's ancestral lands, located between Healdsburg and Geyserville in Sonoma County, California. It was first established in 1915 when the federal government officially recognized the Tribe and alloted the Rancheria land communally for tribal use. Though a population of Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians currently calls the Rancheria home, much of the Tribes ancestral lands containing gravesites, former villages, and sites for gathering the sedge used in basket weaving were flooded by water from the Warm Springs Dam and Lake Sonoma in 1983.
