On the east side of Otsego Lake on County Rte 31/East Lake Road I found several waterfalls on what look like seasonal streams. There are a couple more falls as well but they were still locked in ice. All are visible from the road. Once the trees get leaves these probably won't be visible, but the spring run off will probably have stopped by then anyway.

The first, at 42.726139 -74.905139, was about 10 feet high

The second was actually a 'twin' with two small streams running down the hill about 40 feet apart. These, at 42.734556 -74.897056, dropped a total of about 25 feet.
