This waterfall is located on private property. At the time of this writing (06/2007) the access trail was un-posted. Keep your visit short, respect the land and hopefully it will remain open to the public. In a telephone conservation with the owner on 02/22/2009 he mentioned that he has no problem with people visiting this falls.
From your parking spot walk up Moon Hill Road and just after crossing Bucktail Creek you will see a trail to the southwest. In roughly 100 feet you arrive at the base of Bucktail Falls. The falls is 28 feet high, has a crest that is 11 feet wide and faces to the northeast.
