Beautiful falls, basic amenities

Near the campsite is the first fall that curtains over a little cave. You’re able to walk in and under the fall which feels like you’re in a movie. Take a longer hike thru the forest, over a couple old lil bridges and up onto this cliff and you’ll see a giant cascading fall across the way. Absolutely breath taking. Pretty quiet thru June. We were the only ones there. Great experience
