This is such a great little trek into the outdoors. It’s a beautiful drive from Bowling Green. The waterfall hike is about a mile and took me 20ish minutes to get out to the waterfall. It’s not super strenuous, and is nice for a nice reprieve in nature. My dog loved it too! There are some downed trees at the moment, but nothing that fully blocks the path.

Excellent trip up to Shanty Hollow Lake. Hiking trail is just long enough to get your blood pumping with good variation in the trail. Lots of highs and lows and a great waterfall at the end. The lake area is very nice as well and is good to visit during warm weather with lots of activities like renting kayaks or boats to fish.

Lovely hike with bubbling brooks, waterfalls and amazing rock formations. It’s a bit of s drive but yet close enough to make it a half day trip. Great place to take kids or to enjoy a stroll. Will get muddy but beautiful in end season.

Such a beautiful place and not too difficult of a trail. Once the path forks you just go off to the right and follow the lion king looking rock till you get to the falls. After the fork is where it gets a little more difficult with rocks and trees to climb over. Dogs allowed on leash, mine absolutely loved it. Managed just fine with her walking me. Only two stars because there was broken glass literally EVERYWHERE on the trail from a quarter mile in all the way to the falls. It's actually ridiculous. Guess people think it's cool to litter, and endanger animals and small children. A little iffy on going back because of this. Thankfully my dog avoided injury but who's to say this will always...

Giving this only 2 stars for now, although we might give it another chance one day. We had a couple bites but that was it. When we left out that night we seen multiple cop cars patrolling, two of which immediately got behind us and pulled us over. (He lied & said tail light was out. We stopped right after n it was working fine) anyways, he told us there had been lots of burglaries/thefts going on in the area at night time. So, if visiting the area at night with your family, please be safe & pay attention to your...
