Summary: The walk in is very easy. It looks like an old service road.An impressive falls at an estimated 40 feet tall and 100 feet wide. Lampson is a shallow and broad-faced falls, which can have huge amounts of water flowing over it during peak melt season in the spring. During the summer it calms and becomes a much quieter setting. At the bottom of the falls a small beach has formed allowing for swimming and picnicking. The 15 minute walk into this area is well worth it. Trailhead: The access for Lampson Falls is the Grasse River Recreation Area on Route 27 in Clare, just north of Degrasse. Look for the brown and yellow DEC sign at a gated road. Park on the road side and head down the dirt road. (Lat:44.40582 Lon:-75.06617) Trail Guides for Lampson Falls: Best Seasons: Year-Round User Groups: Hikers, Dogs, Bikes, Ranger Contact: ?

Reviewed by TCA on 11/25/2008 This was a nice place to camp, I have camped here a couple times with school and on my own as well as going on numerous hikes during scouts and with my family, being a local to the county. In the winter it is really nice, and wood for fires is plentiful
Reviewed by Jeff on 9/10/2008 My wife and I visited just last week. The trail is wide and level and a nice easy half mile to the falls and even handicap accessable. Take mosquito repellant and a swimsuit. Great area that looks like it might get a little use as a party sopt by the locals. 
Reviewed by Sylvie on 8/20/2008 I've visited more than 20 waterfalls this summer in N.Y. state and this is one of my favorites.
Reviewed by sharon on 9/10/2005 The view for the bottom is great but try taking the trail the runs down the side of the falls. Notice: Traveling in the backcountry can be hazardous.
