The town of Tollhouse is located at the foot of Sarvers (or Tollhouse) Peak. Elijah Sauvier, a solitude seeking goatherd was the first known non-Native American to settle in the area, sometime before the mid 1860's, exactly when is unknown. Mr. Sauvier contructed a corral of split oak posts, to protect his goats at night from the bears and panthers that roamed the area at that time. He also constructed a crude structure to protect himself from the elements and laid claim to the fertile bottom lands along Big Dry Creek, which flows through this area. He remained in the area until early 1866, leaving behind, through a county map maker's error, a variation of his name on the nearby peak overlooking the community.

Tollhouse is an unincorporated town located in the Sierra Nevadas of Fresno County, California southwest of Shaver Lake. The town was created in the 1860s around a lumber mill. The name "tollhouse" comes from the fact that the community was also built up in connection to a now-defunct toll road running up the steep slopes of Sarver Peak to Pine Ridge.
