The sounds of a busy woodland stream and the quiet murmur of a lazy waterfall have long been stilled here. Only after heavy rainfall does water fill the stream and set the waterfall singing. Over the years the water table has dropped several feet and the spring which feeds Owens Creek has all but disappeared. Little remains of a scene once familiar to residents of Rocky Spring Community.
The Owens Creek Waterfall site is also the southern terminus of the Rocky Springs Trail (a segment of the Natchez Trace National Scenic Trail). From here you can hike north about 3 miles to the Rocky Springs site.
