Just off Highway 64, about a 2 minute walk from the parking area lies this absolute gem of a waterfall, ironically called Dry Falls. It's known as the Dry Falls because the path behind the waterfall (visible in the image) lets one walk behind the waterfall without getting wet (Unless the waterfall is in high flow, then all bets are off).

This location does get pretty crowded since it's so easy to get to, so it's advised to head here early if you want to enjoy the unspoiled beauty of the location. Also there are some fabulous roads around the area - Highway 64, Cherohalla Skyway, Tail of the Dragon, Highway 276 and such, which are amazing to drive on during the early morning hours.

Close to Dry Falls is another waterfall called Bridal Veil Falls. That is also special if there's sufficient water flowing since you can drive your car behind the waterfall.

Thank you for looking.

Thank goodness we were on the 3rd floor because the floors were quite creaky. Water pressure was horrible . We smelled smoking a few times and lastly, the pull out sofa bed was terribly uncomfortable and it made horrible sounds everyone she moved- she’s a small 11 year old. Our king bed was very comfortable. The staff was super kind & helpful!!

The heated pool and jacuzzi were the best after a day of hiking. Did not utilize the sauna or exercise area. The atmosphere of the lodge was clean and comfortable. Staff were so pleasant and accommodating. Had to use stairs for the many levels. Not ADA compliant for those in need from my experience. The room had more than expected. Full kitchen/living area and private bedroom. Would definitely book this lodge again in the future!

The room was great. The only things I would suggest is having a fry pan and maybe one other recliner and a table. But not needed aside from the pan. Loved the once a week clean.

Took a while to check in but lady pleasant. A few rules & regulations to read. Room was ok and had 2 comfortable beds. Fridge/microwave but NO coffee maker although you could get coffee I think in reception. Same for breakfast - coffee/ cereals/cakes & croissants. Only had one night stay on route ...
