Beautiful little falls, the overlook is easy to get to from parking. It was a small lot & we had to park on road. We found an unmarked part a little up from the overlook same side which led us down to the bottom. It was easier to see falls from there but wear good boots as it was rocky & wet there but pretty.

It is a nice little get a way from the city life conveniently located right next to a parking area. Hike down a hill that isnt too steep to see the falls which are a nice beginner waterfall to hike to. Good for kids if you want to show them nature.

Gorgeous! Who knew there were so many beautiful waterfalls to discover in the Cleveland area. The overlook provides a beautiful view. Also took the trail down to the water. Fun little hike with a beautiful ending down by the falls.

This spot is beautiful and easy to get to the place we went. We sat down by the waterfall and just listened to it all. It is so peaceful and just amazing! The sound of the water, nature and leaves rustling gives you this peaceful atmosphere that I would give to live in all day everyday.

STUNNING VIEWS!

Beautiful Vista and a great turn around point for an early season short bike ride from Detroit road. There is no access to drinking water or a bathroom at this location in the metro parks but there is an overlook built over the cliff so you can get an awesome view of the falls.

Review №48

Day and night the place is overrun by undesirables. Its too close to the wrong part of Berea. If you have the patience to put up with junkies swimming illegally in the falls, the steelhead do accumulate here in the autumn.

TA
Review №49

Berea falls are a piece of glacial history. Very scenic....must see!

Bi
Review №50

These place is beautiful and awesome unfortunately what makes it awesome is illegal not allowed to swim or slide down the waterfalls but a very well kept piece of scenery worth the stop

Review №55

Sometimes I forget how beautiful the sites are right around me. I love the overlook, though I love the forest more. The whole place is serene. A step away from the stress and ugliness in the human world.I highly recommend visiting while you still can since environmental protections are being rolled back right now all over the country in favor of industry. Come here with a fishing pole or a picnic lunch to relax. Walk or bike the trails and absorb all the peace and tranquility you can.

Unexpectedly picturesque overlook with a view of multi-layered falls with several train bridges in background. Be sure to take the extra time to hike down the steep but short trail nearby to get a view from the bottom.
