Reviews
"I was just passing through and stopped to have lunch and take a pic after a storm."
"Very active waterfall. Usually there are lots of people here but we came early so it was nice and quiet."
"Quiet spot for a quick walk and view of the falls. No amenities. But nice hilly field, some shaded spots. There is graffiti and some of the trail have been washed out in spots, but you can walk over them. Trailhead is hard to see, but is easier to climb up to the road and cars."
"A two star park with a 5 star potential. Driving to dinner at Tatu Tacos & Tequila Google directed us around traffic and we noticed a parking lot with two small signs that said “Keep Your Park Clean” and “No Parking Dusk to 8AM” but no park name. We pulled in and there were other signs with one pointing to where the trail starts. Most of the signs are covered with obscene graffiti. I wouldn’t want children to see it and it disappointed me. We walked the trail having to see most graffiti on most of the “No Trespassing” signs along the trail. The trail gradually goes down along the gorge with some views. A few new looking wooden chairs are part way down to the creek. This would be a nice place to relax with the sound of the creek. The trail ends where I think there must have been a platform. I climbed around to head down to the Poesten Kill. Totally beautiful. A high waterfall flowing down into the creek. No one else was at the creek. How can someplace so beautiful be so neglected? To start with, the entrance needs a sign with the park name. The graffiti signs need to be replaced. The trail needs to be fixed so you can get down to the creek."
"A beautiful waterfall in a lovely natural sanctuary. Unfortunately its a holiday weekend and there is confetti everywhere. But it's still a *gorgeous* spot."
