Cane Creek Falls
[no people] - Cane Creek Falls is easily reached via a few minutes drive from Dahlonega. The falls are located on Camp Glisson property, so be sure to gain permission to view them. When I went in August there was no one around so we just parked by the lodge/office and walked down the street to the falls.
There's a small view platform above the falls, but it's a mush better perspective from the bottom. Cross over the bridge and walk around to the base. Again, because this is not public land, please be sure not to disturb anything in the area and refrain from swimming, fishing, etc. These falls were the first of several I visited this day, as there are many worth seeing sites in the area, and was the first true intended waterfall expidition.
