I have read about these falls on some other websites and could not find a post for it here. It's listed as private on this site, but you would never know from visiting. There were a half dozen people there yesterday, and no signs were visible. There is even an extensive rope rail going down the hill. Plus several campfire rings are down in the bottom of the gorge. Even though it wasn't at peak flow, it is still quite a respectable waterfall.

Last time I tried to visit here I turned back because it was posted. I had visited twice before that, each time not posted. I'd be curious to know if its legal to visit now or if people are taking the signs down. It's definitely a spectacular falls!

I think it's just one of those falls that's posted, but everyone just visits anyways.
There's also another falls upstream.

It's a small one... 5 feet or less.. in the woods across the street. probably not accessible. I've only seen pictures.
And supposedly Beards creek, across the valley, has a falls as big as Fall Brook Falls. Downstream from Dunkley road.

There is a waterfall on Beards Creek in Leicester, NY. I think it's nicer than Fallsbrook Falls on the other side of the

Thats a nice falls. Not sure if we should be posting falls that are clearly posted though from a legal standpoint? Im also guessing thats not 100' based on the tree sizes along the rim.

That's a beautiful falls! I'd be curious if a hike upstream through the gorge would be posted or not.
