This is a very short hike to a nice waterfall. It is dog friendly too! It is a good date place. It would be really romantic to hike to the falls and have a picnic.

Cascade can be somewhat confusing. There are two sets of waterfalls that can be reached at each split on the fork in the road. One set is the lazy man's hike (which is the shortest hike I've ever traveled to see a waterfall, the other is a bit longer to get to ~15 minutes). Neither proved to be that great to look at. The larger of the two waterfalls is about 20 feet which is nothing special after you've seen all the best waterfalls in Marin like I have before this one.

There are plenty of better hikes and certainly plenty of better waterfalls in Marin - call me a little snobbish but I know my hikes and waterfalls. Getting here can be a pain in the butt as you'll have to start this hike from a residential street that has prohibited parking at the end of the street. This is a very amateurish hike that can be perfect if you're a total beginner or looking for something quick and easy.

Take Cascade Drive all the way until you see a sign for Cascade Falls, and prepare for a pleasant stroll!  This is a great 20 minute walk that includes a bridge, a nice waterfall (bench included), and a walk back to where you parked.  Perfect for a light walk with a date :)
