Grant's Creek Provincial Park protects a canoe route along the creek. The park web site says that there are several small waterfalls along the route. I don't think that you can hike to any of them and would need to canoe. The easiest one to reach is where the creek falls through a notch in a bedrock hill, then spills into the tiny Logslide Lake.
The falls are located 2km upstream from the Hwy 17 crossing. It is upstream or south of the second hydro line cut. The creek appears to be flatwater for just about the entire route. I didn't see an easy place to put a canoe or kayak in the water at Hwy 17.
The driving directions lead to a road that is just east of the river, at Hwy 17. I don't know if this road provides access to the falls. It is just a low-order forest access road, possibly only accessible by ATV. This location is provided merely for convenience.
