I LOVE this trail. Mostly because it's low risk and high reward. In other words, it's a fairly easy hike with a BEAUTIFUL waterfall!

This is a super easy waterfall that attracts many. I would say if you're not really wanting any kind of a hike, just a pretty waterfall, go see Dry Falls!

There are two different trails up to the overlook. The one to the left at the start is less steep, but still a good little hike.

Food Scene
One of my top favorite restaurants. Yes, this restaurant is located in the same building as a gas station, but don't let that fool you. Caffé Rel brings amazing food and a wonderful ambiance. Be sure to check days/times open and to bring cash since they do not accept cards. (ATM beside them.)

If you're looking for some simple Southern food, this is the place! Go in knowing that the tables are close together and it tends to be busy, but worth it! I like to order food as takeout and bring it home.

Art, coffee, frozen yogurt, AND fresh pastries in one place!!! Yes, please.
