Welcome to Surprise Valley in the
remote high desert valley of northeastern California. You’ll
find us nestled between the Warner Mountain Range in northeastern
California and the Hayes Range in Nevada.
Approximately 70 miles long
and averaging ten miles wide, Surprise Valley is graced with
exquisite natural beauty, fertile agricultural land, pristine air,
diverse wildlife, and is home to four rural, welcoming and historic
towns: Cedarville, Eagleville, Fort Bidwell and Lake City.

Our
small communities retain that authentic “Old West” flavor
introduced by the hardy and hopeful pioneers who settled this area in
the mid-nineteenth century.
Cattle ranching , alfalfa hay production
and tourism fuel our local economy. Cattle drives still take place
across open terrain and along valley byways – so be sure and have
your camera handy at all times when you come to visit.
