We knew we were in the area of these falls so we stopped by a local home to see if we could get more information on how to find it.  A young man enjoying his summer vacation from school offered to guide us to the falls.  Our thanks to Andrew for helping us out.  Otherwise, these falls are best found by canoe or kayak on the water.  They are located a couple of miles upstream from the village of Belleville just off Jefferson County Route 82.

Noted simply as "falls" on these maps, they are technically unnamed and have no common local name.  We have tentatively called them this because there are three waterfalls that we know of on the Sandy Creek and these are the furthest upstream.

The Sandy Creek flows into Lake Ontario.
