A much smaller, somewhat less interesting falls in the Hilton Falls Conservation Area. It is located at the north end of the reservoir, and can dry up during warmer, drier periods in summer. The Red Oak trail passes along the north end of the cascade, which is surrounded by woods.
I haven't been in for some time and can't remember how easily it is accessed. Hilton Falls Conservation Area has become very popular, and if you don't like crowds, this may be a quieter (though less impressive) alternative to the main show in the park.
