Fall River is a river in southeast Kansas that flows through Greenwood, Elk, and Wilson Counties.[2] The source of the river is in west Greenwood County approximately 4.5 miles northwest of Eureka. It is a tributary of the Verdigris River and its confluence with the Verdigris is approximately 2 miles south of Neodesha. It is also known as the South Verdigris River.[3]

Fall River was dammed in southeastern Greenwood county forming Fall River Lake. Fall River State Park is located on this lake.[4]
