Review:
Located within a state park of the same name, Cunningham Falls is the largest cascading waterfall in Maryland. Known locally as McAfee Falls, Cunningham Falls has a height of 78 feet and was supposedly renamed after a photographer who frequently took pictures of the falls.
Visitors will not only get to see the beautiful sight but will also come across other features such as an old homestead that can be seen above the falls and a natural rock formation called Dunkards Trough that was once used for baptisms.
While at the park, you can participate in various other recreational activities such as hunting, swimming, fishing, boating, and camping.
Cunningham Falls State Park: 14039 Catoctin Hollow Road, Thurmont, MD 21788
