This is a beautiful place with lots of pools to swim in. It is a great place to cool off in the summer.

This is not actually the highest waterfall in Virginia, Crabtree Falls might be as it is over 1000 feet combined, or Bent Mountain Falls could be with it's 200 foot drop. Falling Springs hasn't fallen 200 feet for well over 100 years. Mining operations diverted the spring, so that it now only falls about 80 feet. Not quite the waterfall Jefferson saw and wrote about
