Most of the land surrounding the waterfall is privately owned, but it can be viewed from a local road.[2]

History

In the 20th century, the waterfall was a popular site to visit. The Syracuse Herald-Journal reported in 1906 that it was "one of the most beautiful spots in Madison County" and popular among photographers.[3] By the 1930s, there was "considerable" construction around the falls, as individuals constructed homes and camps.[4]
