Welcome to Willow Creek!

Willow Creek is a great destination for those looking to invest in a second home, retire, or just have a vacation. It has hot summers, mild and snowy winters, and lush terrain that's perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and golfing. There's also plenty of fishing, rafting, kayaking and canoeing opportunities due to its rivers – the Trinity and Klamath rivers. On top of all that it's main attraction is tourism! People come from all over the world to explore the Bigfoot capital of the world. Every year there are festivals celebrating monsters like Bigfoot and locals proudly call themselves members of the boating community. The big cherry on top is The Bigfoot Museum where you can learn about the mysterious creature that gave Willow Creek its name!

The sleepy town of Willow Creek boasts a rich history, beginning with the gold rush and moving into the timber industry before most recently serving as a hub for the cannabis industry. The town's temperate climate has allowed for successful cultivation of cannabis crops year round. The market blow from 2021 didn't hit without a few silver linings though, as real estate prices have become more affordable and many thriving businesses are now up for grabs for eager buyers. It seems that Willow Creek is in the midst of a sort of transformation, transitioning reliance away from cannabis back towards its other historically-flourishing industries. Both old and new investors alike have plenty to be excited about here in Willow Creek.

 

Willow Creek has something for everyone! Not only can you spend your days wine tasting at one of the local vineyards or exploring their farmers market, you can also find everything you need to take care of basic errands. From a reliable Small Engine Repair to an Ace Hardware store, and even a grocery store, post office and bank just down the street—you won't have to worry about having easy access to all the necessities. But let's not forget why we're really here—Willow Creek is home to some excellent restaurants, locally owned shops and bakeries that make it feel like more than just a quick stopover on the way elsewhere.
