Iroquois Falls, ON.

Inc. 1913

Pop: 4,537 (2016 census)

Iroquois Falls is a small town close to one of the largest cities in Northern Ontario, Timmins. The towns primary industry was a large mill producing newsprint and commercial printing papers. Unfortunately, in December of 2014, the owner, Resolute Forest Products, announced its permanent closure. Tracing its roots to 1912, the community of Iroquois Falls has been cited as Northern Ontario’s Original Model Town.

Iroquois Falls was previously home to the top-producing paper mill of pulp, which was previously the town’s primary industry. But the town wanted to initiate a beautification program, by a gentleman named Mr. Anson in 1919. More than 200 dwellings were built because of this initiative, followed by a town hall, hotel, sports complex, a school, as well as a variety of commercial establishments. The town is now known as The Garden Town of the North, with vibrant flower beds that are spread all over for everyone to enjoy.

Iroquois Falls is a small vibrant town in Northern Ontario that offers golfing, swimming, camping, tennis, hockey, bowling, curling, skating, and more. If you enjoy fishing, there are many lakes to choose from as well as the Annual Ice Fishing derby that takes place in March and forms part of the Winter Carnival and the Annual Search for Moby Pike in the spring. Northern Ontario is known as snowmobiler’s paradise, and the towns trails connect you with the surrounding areas, allowing you to see some great scenery.
