A small, but charming waterfall just inside Sleeping Giant Provincial Park. About 150 m due east of the small parking area for the Joe Creek Trail, off Hwy 587.

After the falls visitors can continue along the trail for less than a kilometre to Squaw Bay on Lake Superior. In spring, the river can expand over its banks; in summer, it can dry up dramatically.
