Haymeadows Falls is a waterfall on Haymeadow Creek in Delta County, Michigan, in the Northern Lakes and Forests region, with a total height of about 3 feet. It lies about 14.4 miles northeast of Gladstone and roughly 118.5 miles northeast of Green Bay as the crow flies.
At 3 feet it is one of the lowest falls in the state’s records: of the 116 Michigan waterfalls with a documented height only 0 are shorter, while the typical Michigan waterfall stands around 20 feet. The water comes down as a block waterfall, wider than it is tall, spilling over a broad ledge.
The Northern Lakes and Forests are a glaciated landscape of pine, spruce, aspen and northern hardwoods dotted with thousands of lakes and wetlands. Rivers step down over ancient bedrock ledges, with dark, tannin-stained water pouring over rock.
