Cedar Mill Falls is a small urban waterfall on Cedar Mill Creek just below NW Cornell Road. From the Cedar Mill Bible Church at 12208 NW Cornell Road, walk east along Cornell Road past the 1863 John Quincy Adams Young House, which is not open to visitors. Past the house, a gravel trail leads to the Sue Conger Boardwalk, which drops to a shaded viewing platform at the falls. Steps lead from the platform back up to the Cornell Road sidewalk. The sources describe parking in the church lot but do not say that the church permits trail parking.
