3 months agoThe hike to get to the top was along a stream. Making it more exciting to jump around and avoid getting into water. Lots of fall foliage to look around while hiking. The trail was very clean and a couple of big streams to cross made it more fun to get across the rocks while balancing and cheering people. The hike feels a little longer than what is written on All trails but nevertheless the views from the top were worth it. We enjoyed the hike to get to the top and we sat there almost an hour to take in all the views. It's also a wonderful location to spot the scenic train in the midst of the fall colors.

4 months agoWonderful views and hikes if the weather cooperates. No cell service with Verizon or AT&T. Camped at dry river campground. Huge site, but very tight to get in and out with a big camper (we have a 30' bumper pull). No electric. Water at campground. No dump station. Yes dumpster. Many hikers on the Appalachian trail. Great waterfalls.

5 months agoWOW 😲! My first 🥇 time visiting was as a kid, but, even though I enjoyed the views, camping and swimming in the streams, I didn't enjoy being carsick. I visited on and off in my younger years. I brought my son for snow tubing. My last visit was by train 🚂🚃 from North Conway. Now, I'm exploring NH waterfalls, trails and history. Crawford has it all, including camping, swimming, breathtaking views and the possibilities of seeing wildlife such as bears 🐻 or moose. Places I have visited that I recommend; Ripley, not the woman who fought Aliens, and Arethusa Falls, Davis Path trail, Silver Cascade and Willey House and Pond and trail. Driving RT 302, you 🙈 see so much! My heart breaks when I have to leave! I recommend a visit!

3 months agoFairly easy hike. About 3 miles round trip. The waterfall is beautiful. Lots of dogs :) my pups loved it. Can get fairly busy, we saw lots of ppl on the trail. Several big parking lots.

3 months agoMy brother recently married at Willey House Dam, Crawford Notch. An incredibly special place for them as some of their earliest memories with each other started there. The team at Willey House were incredible as a glad flood had come through 2 days earlier. They watched the dam levels and helped to clean it before the big day.
