Getting there could definitely be better marked. I initially passed Waterfall Rd. as I was following my gps. There is a sign on waterfall road that says waterfalls with an arrow but, it doesn't say which waterfall. I got to the dead end and saw a private drive sign there but, there were 2 drives. One was gated so I took the drive with the street sign that google maps directed me to take. Once I determined it was not correct I turned around. Now heading back to Waterfall Rd, a nearby resident still felt the need to stop and confront me. I can quickly think of three ways to mitigate this... for all... with just some signs that communicate clearly. The Falls were beautiful, be prepared for lots of gnats and spiderwebs.

On a private road and a sigh telling you so. Did not proceed to the trailhead.

Went in the middle of the week and there was almost no one there. Do turn where the sign says waterfall (just under the sign that says waterfall Road). If there is two little homemade speed bumps, then you’re on the right road. Trail starts out wide and sandy and you’re a little over halfway when it goes to a one person wide trail. Careful of the roots so you don’t fall over the edge.
