La Porte was settled under the name Rabbit Creek in 1850 after gold was discovered by Hamilton Ward and James Murry. The initial settlement remained small and likely seasonal until ditches were built to facilitate hydraulic mining by 1852. The first permanent structure in the camp, the Rabbit Creek Hotel, was built in 1852. The town was renamed to La Porte in 1857, the year the post office opened. The post office would serve the community for 100 years, closing in 1957.

Downhill skiing was a popular activity at La Porte as early as the 1860s and would be an activity enjoyed in the area for over 150 years. A disastrous fire struck the town in 1868.

The La Porte district saw a resurgence of mining in the 1890s due to several factors. The rugged terrain and harsh winter weather of the district resulted in the area being less extensively mined than other California districts. As those districts ran out of gold, new attention was put on the potential of the Plumas County mines. Improved transporation routes and availability of new machinery and mining techniques also played a role. Another fire in 1919 brought media attention to the town of La Porte.
