It's a nice fall. Lots of trees and debris midway down on it. the trail is almost a goat path but it is worth visiting.
Sep 28, 2024 · Google ReviewWhat a nice find! While out exploring a forest service road, we happened upon this beautiful fall. No one was around and it was a very short hike. When you walk down the trail, take the path to the right. This will take you to the bottom of the falls where you can take some nice pictures. Would definitely recommend!

Aug 7, 2025 · Google ReviewLess than .5 miles round-trip. Trail splits off in 2 directions. Going right takes you to the lower falls, left to the upper. Short and sweet with a nice view.
Jan 1, 2024 · Google ReviewVery short hike. Nice waterfalls. Left hand fork takes you to the upper falls, and the right hand fork goes to the lower falls.
