The City of Crystal Falls, born of the early iron mining and timber explorations in the southwest of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, sprawls leisurely on hilly terrain extending east and west from the banks of the Paint River. It is a city that, in growing from its first settler's shacks to a picturesque residential community, went into partnership with nature in preserving a natural setting for itself. Most impressive is the Iron County Court House that graces the west end of Superior Avenue, the main business section of the City. Crystal Falls offers outdoor recreation such as fishing, hunting, boating, camping, golfing, skiing, hiking, or snowmobiling, our community covers all bases.
