Twin Falls State Park is home to two handsome waterfalls.

Marsh Fork Falls and Black Fork Falls are both in the 8–10' range and worth the short hike to get there. The park has many accommoda- tions for camping, lodging, hiking, golfing, and viewing wildlife. Make sure and checkout the pioneer homestead. It's a worthwhile side trip while you're there. Very photogenic.
