Beaver Brook Cascades

Beaver Brook Cascades is an amazing 5-star rated waterfall located in Woodstock, New Hampshire. The waterfall has a total height of over 600 feet and it can be found along Beaver Brook. Beaver Brook flows strongest during spring when the snow melts and after heavy rainstorms.
