A long, sliding waterfall gradually dropping perhaps 40 feet, Silk Mill Falls lies along an unnamed creek dropping steeply into Yonah Lake. The waterfall is about 0.2 mile east of Silk Mill Road (FR 182). A gated road leads to a powerline cut just above the falls, from where it's quick off-trail scramble down to the creek.

To learn about more waterfalls in the Clarkesville area, see chapter 8 in Mark Ozboyd's "Waterfalls of Georgia" guidebook.
