Fall River Mills fits a range of outdoor recreation in a small area
Wedged between the Fall River and the Pit River, the Northern California community of Fall River Mills surrounds its 600 residents with outdoor recreation. Water sports top the list, particularly the area's world-class fishing, says John Beckwith, owner of United Country Real Estate McArthur Ranch & Home with roughly 25 years of industry experience. Fall River Mills is also close to places for hiking, camping and hunting, and homebuyers can choose from an array of housing options
Region touts plenty of trout fishing
The Fall and Pit rivers are hot spots for fly fishing. Two Rivers Park, near where the two rivers meet, is especially popular for trout fishing. The Bureau of Land Management Pit River Campground provides boating access to the waterway along with eight campsites. Trout Island Road, 8 miles north of the community, has a small boat launch to the Fall River. Locals can also spend a day at Fall River Lake, just off the river. “They have a day-use area out there,” Beckwith says. “You can go out there and have a barbecue by the lake.” The 720-acre Cinder Flats Wildlife Area is an option for hiking and hunting deer, quail and more. Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park, 8 miles north in McArthur, has 20 miles of trails. The 18-hole course at Fall River Valley Golf & Country Club, located right in the middle of Fall River Mills, is open to the public.

Local fair is a major annual tradition
Fall River Mills is about 4 miles from the site of the Inter-Mountain Fair in McArthur. The fair dates to 1918, and Beckwith considers it the biggest draw in terms of community events in this area. Held on Labor Day weekend, the fair includes a parade, a rodeo, horse and beef shows, and carnival rides.

La Cocina Michoacana is another draw, whose patio is popular on nice days. Do it Best Valley Hardware is a locally owned place for everything from lawnmowers to sporting goods to office supplies.
