This is a small, attractive cascade that is just a hundred metres north of Hwy 17. The creek runs just east of Harris Creek Rd at the settlement of Day Mills. There is no main drop, but rather a series of rapids and cascades, providing lots of photography opportunities.
A wide slide-type waterfall is found at the top of the run, though it has a low angle. Park on the side of Harris Creek Rd; the falls are immediately beside the creek.
It is my belief that the waterfalls are on a crown land strip along the river, and that this crown land meets the road allowance. I did not see any private property signs. Please heed any that may be posted. Remember, this web site does not give you permission to trespass.
