Kettle Falls

Located just 30 miles from the Canadian border and adjacent to Franklin D Roosevelt Lake, the area offers visitors an abundance of outdoor activities. Kettle Falls had always been an important site to the local Native Americans, who traveled to the falls to fish for salmon. When the Grand Coulee Dam was being built, Kettle Falls had to relocate. The new location was built around the railroad, and soon became a successful town. Before the rising waters flooded the falls, the Native Americans in the area came to mourn the loss of their ancient fishing grounds. Kettle Falls is in Stevens County, northwest of Colville.
