Fall City has one of the largest collections of historic homes of any unincorporated city in King County with a local Historic District. Some of the designated landmarks include the Neighbors Bennett House, the Fall City Masonic Hall, the Harshman Prescott House, and the Fall City Hop Shed.
Area residents enjoy an array of recreational opportunities like fishing, boating, golf, great hiking trails, horseback riding, kayaking, and inner tubing on both the Snoqualmie and Raging Rivers. Whether you are bicycling through picturesque scenes of fields, trees, and rivers or strolling along a river bank, it’s hard to believe this much serenity and barely touched landscape exists a very short car ride from a major metropolitan city.
The Fall City area is home to organic farms, weekly farmer’s markets in nearby Carnation and Snoqualmie, tree farms for the Christmas season, and many destination farms for fall pumpkin harvesting and celebrations, as well as CSA Garden Cooperatives.
Community involvement is alive and thriving in Fall City, which is home to organizations such as the Raging River Rides, the Fall City Community Association, Fall City Arts, the Odd Fellows, the Masonic Lodge, Falls Little League, Cub/Boy/Girl scouts, Fall City Historical Society, the Fall City Forest Theater, Friends of the Fall City Library, Snoqualmie Valley Schools Foundation, and many more.
Fall City’s schools (Fall City Elementary, Chief Kanim Middle School) boast high parental involvement and excellent student test scores. Mt Si High School, located in the town of Snoqualmie, serves Fall City’s teens.
Fall City is home to the 31-acre Fall City Community Park located on the banks of the Snoqualmie River, with a riding arena and access to the Snoqualmie Valley trail that runs from Snoqualmie Falls to Carnation. Olive Taylor Quigley Park is downtown along the river. The Fall City Arts Park is across the street with lovely sculptures and historic information for a walking tour of the area.
Many events during the year create a wonderful sense of community. The Community Association hosts “Fall City Days” in June with a small-town-style parade and open market, a fun run, kiddy rides, a pancake breakfast, Duck Derby, and more. The “Fall City Neighbors” newsletter brings monthly news about the people and activities in town.
Fall City incorporates a diverse mix of housing with something for every lifestyle, from affordable to Street of Dreams homes, from platted communities to homes on acreage.
If you desire a return to a charming small town atmosphere and community spirit with a convenient commute, it’s waiting for you in Fall City.
