The Toccoa Falls Waterfall is situated on the campus of Toccoa Falls College, not far from Toccoa in the magnificent North Georgia Mountains. The college campus and the famous waterfall comprise Toccoa Falls. To get to the waterfall, visitors have to pass through the campus and enter through Gate Cottage, which hosts Toccoa Falls Books & Gifts.
From the cottage, there is a scenic path that leads to the natural gorge where the falls can be observed. The falls are 186 feet high - about nineteen feet higher than Niagara Falls, and the Toccoa Falls waterfall is one of the highest single-drop waterfalls in this part of the country. The water of the fall forms a stream that runs through the lovely forested college campus. Gate Cottage Restaurant offers a fantastic view of Toccoa Creek and is open to the general public on Sunday for lunch.
