Where Things are a Little Different
As you enter Kettle Falls, Washington the first inkling you'll get of the not-so-ordinary nature of things in this city is the welcome sign itself. "Kettle Falls," it proclaims, "1550 Friendly People and One Grouch."
If you're wondering who the grouch is, you can ask any of the residents here to point you to him (or her). If you want to buy the poor guy a drink because you're feeling sorry for him, go ahead, but don't - feel sorry, that is. The Grouch, you see, is sort of like the town mascot and isn't necessarily a cranky person either. The city elects a new one every year and it's an open secret that the elections (where you can vote as many times as you wish) aren't exactly on the up-and-up. Wanting to have something more than an easily forgettable mascot, the residents here started electing a Grouch back in 1985.
If nothing else, it's clear that the folks here (and realtors in Kettle Falls) have a sense of humor. What they also have is a picturesque town surrounded by stunning views and a quality of life you'd be hard put to find anywhere else. Kettle Falls homes for sale are on the market not because their owners wanted to leave the city. Indeed, who would want to say goodbye to such breathtaking beauty?
Kettle Falls is near the mouth of the Kettle River. A tributary of the Columbia River, it flows for 175 miles from its spring in the Monashee Mountains of British Columbia.
People in Kettle Falls enjoy living in the heart of nature. Lying next to Lake Roosevelt, the city's serene, woodland setting induces some to put their feet up and relax and others to don their hiking boots and explore the forests and mountains. Drop by this charming town and discover what it has in store for you - you won't be disappointed.
