Very limited parking, pretty waterfall. Perfect for those who want to see a waterfall without all the walking.

I don't know where I been lol I lived right down the street for about 10 years now and never knew this existed here lol Its very quite, very lush full of trees, nice place to come get your mind clear, relax and listen to the falls. It's hidden from everything. My son says this goes al the way down to the canal, but that trail is not open right now. The train tracks are right next to it. I never knew.... I'm going to be riding down the Mill Creek trail lot now. Nice bike ride, and 4 sure!

Beautiful waterfall. One of many along this unique river system.

Couple weekends ago we were in Cleveland and I took my woman to check out this place. She was being a little scared on trying to walk down to the lower end of the falls. It's very beautiful place I wanted to explore it more but she was being a scared of that. If you get a chance check this place out it's pretty cool.

Millcreek Falls is a breathing place. Nestled over the bridge is this hidden waterfalls. I visit there just to hear the serenity of the falls. I thank God for creating nature.

Wow, we didn't know that it is the highest waterfall in Cuyahoga County... Confused why it's also called Cataract Falls.

The observation deck is helpful.

There's a lower area that has a short loop trail - the "Road Closed" sign is for autos.

There are 2 decorative iron works down there, some sights of the creek & at least 1 very steep dirt path down to the creek.

We didn't see any picnic tables & there isn't a playground as it's a small parking & observation areas.

Also called cataract falls. Beautiful but not much flow due to lack of rain in last few weeks & a dry few months. The overlook was easy to find. Small parking lot nearby. There was s cool bench at top with tilework, colorful. There were lots of stairs to get to overlook & it was slick at points.

A lovely spot - great viewing area of Cataract Falls, lots beautifully crafted ironwork, labeled trees, millstones, stones with messages honoring planet earth and more. If you enjoy trains, one goes by quite often adding to the sounds of the outdoor environment. A lovely spot!
