At first we thought it was directly over the hill on the right (looking at the building) but it is actually to the left behind the building. There is a lot of trash and even rotten fruit on the ground from the trees, it made it a little slippery and difficult to breathe briefly without inhaling bugs.. until you got through the fruit. The homeless have made a home out of the little flat areas with cloths and trash everywhere. The fall itself was very small but still pretty.

Short walk, mostly easy trail. Weird way to get to it, but go to back area at cemetery and park in parking area that is the right of funeral home area. When you get out of the vehicle, walk to the left of the shed/structure. See pictures for the red arrow. There isn't a restroom or any facilities Small waterfall with a swimming hole. People were jumping off 20ish ft cliff into pond.

There seems to be considerable construction along what may have formerly been a trail head. Thick underbrush blocked the view from the parking lot at the mortuary, so only a small trickle of stream was visible. I tried to access it from the highway on the opposite side, but it was on a steep hill and also under construction. Maybe the GPS sent me to the wrong place, who knows.

Very easy walking trail with one small rock scramble. The trail head is on the left side of the building that's the end of the lower parking lot, but it is not marked. On the other side of the parking is the rest of the stream, but looks like a person is squatting across the stream near the parking lot so I decided to leave them be, and not check that area out. Beautiful waterfalls and a scenic mountain stream. Definitely a good hike just wish there wasn't so much neglect (trash and graffiti). Pack out your trash, and leave only...

Kids will enjoy exploring the area around the waterfall, with plenty of shallow spots and rocks to climb. Overall, it's an enjoyable and hassle-free outdoor adventure that the whole family...
