This waterfalls is not too big, but I've seen photos that show that it is worthy of visiting. There is no land-based access. You would either have to head upstream on a motorboat or canoe, or, paddle downstream from Hwy 400.
Just west of the exit for Iroqouis Cranberry Grove Rd, a road called Wahta Rd 9 leads back south parallel to Hwy 400. It ends right at the Musquash River. I believe that it is possible to put a canoe or kayak in at this location. From here, it would be a 4 km trip downstream to the falls. The majority of the trip is along the river, but the last 500 m is across a small lake. The Falls are at the far end of the lake.
