It is within the city limits of Fall River Mills and McArthur that you’ll find the conveniences of banking, postal services, restaurants, schools and small town shopping.
Our community is fortunate to have health care services in the Mountain Valleys Health Centers and at Mayers Memorial Hospital. A full service hospital, complete with emergency room and ambulance service, Mayers also serves the aging community with long term care and skilled nursing facilities. Fall River Mills is also home to an airport with a 5,000 foot runway that allows private jets and other planes to utilize the facility.
Northwest of Fall River Mills you’ll find the community of Glenburn, one of the picturesque small communities scattered throughout this scenic region.

Shasta alongside the verdant ranch land make Glenburn one of the most sought after communities in the Intermountain Area. Crops in the area include wild rice, alfalfa and timothy hay. Cattle are grazed throughout this area. Fall River, which winds through this one of a kind rural community, is almost entirely spring fed and winds for 16 miles through the Fall River Valley. Just beyond Glenburn you’ll find the very small community of Dana, where the Fall River rises nearly full sized at the Thousand Springs Ranch.
