Originally called Linkville, after the Link River nearby, when George Nurse founded the town in 1867, the city’s name was changed to Klamath Falls at its present location. Found 173 miles south of Eugene and home to 21,000 residents, Klamath Falls was originally inhabited by the Klamath Indians. An unusual nickname for the city is Iwauna, referring to the Indian name for a phenomenon that occurred when the river flowed up upstream at times of heavy gusts. The Applegate Trail was blazed in 1846 for emigrants on the Oregon Trail and passes just below the city. Residents of a Klamath Falls house or apartment for rent find comfort in the city’s engaging surroundings, beautiful views, wonderful natural attractions, and jobs and resources available close to home. Klamath Falls is home to the 173rd Fighter Wing of the Oregon Air National Guard, stationed at Kingsley Field. Besides the Klamath Falls International Airport, the Amtrak rail also serves Klamath Falls.
A canoe trail through the wildlife refuge at Rocky Point is one of the city’s famous attractions. Klamath Falls is located on the Pacific Flyway, and is home to many waterfowl and raptors that can be viewed year round. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Klamath Falls can also take advantage of Klamath Memorial Park, Veterans Park, and Moore Park in addition to Reames Golf and Country Club, Shield Crest Golf Course, Harbor Links Golf Course, and Upper Klamath Lake, the largest natural lake in the Pacific Northwest, which all offer extensive recreational and leisure opportunities. The Oregon Institute of Technology and Klamath Community College are both located in Klamath Falls as well.
