Twin Falls is a pair of drops on the South Branch of the Grass River where an island splits the channel; the southern drop is about 55 feet and nearly 100 feet wide. Northern New York Waterfalls says it is on DEC maintained state land along Tooley Pond Road. The smaller falls can be seen from the road. DEC laid stones across a small channel so you can cross to the island and walk around it to the larger cascade. A dirt road just before the falls leads to private posted land; do not use it.
