Another of the many unnamed falls on the Grasse River, this one is
on Pestle Road, about 1.2 miles from the intersection of CR 24 and
Pestle Road in the hamlet. Please note that once you get off
the highway, you are on private land. There are two homes
just downstream from the falls and one directly across the road.
You can get a fairly good view of the falls from the road, but not
a very good picture. While I was there, the lady who owned
the home directly below the falls came out and offered to let me
use her yard to get a better picture!
From the hamlet, travel out Pestle Road about 1.2 miles.
You can't miss it, but please respect the landowner's rights.
The Grasse River flows into the St. Lawrence River in Massena,
in St. Lawrence County.
Note: Depending upon which map or sign you are using,
this river is referred to as both Grasse and Grass.
