| Directions
From US 11 in downtown Canton, turn on Park
Street and proceed past St. Lawrence University. As
you leave the village, Park Street becomes CR 27.
The first intersection is a four-way stop. Take a
right on CR 25. You are looking for the second intersection
which will be about a two mile drive. Take a left
here onto the Little River Road. Note that the
other side of this is the
Pink Schoolhouse Road.
The falls will be in a few hundred yards, under the
bridge at the base of this hill.

This is technically an unnamed falls located in
the town of Canton on the Little River. They are under the
downstream side of the bridge where the Little River Road crosses the river.
Because the property surrounding it is private, it is difficult
to get pictures from downstream.
There are rapids both upstream and downstream from this
little waterfalls.
Since originally posting this waterfall, we have discovered
two additional waterfalls on the Little River in this area.
We have therefore changed our designation for it from Little
River Falls to Little River Road Falls.
The Little River feeds into the Grasse River just south of the
village of Canton near CR 25. The Grasse River empties into
the St. Lawrence River in Massena, in St. Lawrence County.
