Dobsonville Pond Dam

Highlight • Waterfall

Nice, small waterfall created by the Dobsonville Pond Dam.

You can get a good view of the falls from Hop River State Park Trail and from above on Dobson Road.

You cannot enter into the pool at the bottom of the dam to swim, but the setting is peaceful, so it is a great place to stop for a break.
