About this spot
Vickery Creek Falls (Roswell Mill Dam) sits in Old Mill Park in downtown Roswell, GA, off the Vickery Creek Trail near the historic covered bridge — free, easy walk-up access with no fees. Historically a well-known 20ft cliff-jump and swimming spot documented across trip reports and video, with an active 1836 mill dam feeding a rocky pool. As of August 2024 the City of Roswell has officially suspended all water access at the falls (no swimming or wading), a restriction still enforced into 2026 with citation risk for violators; the surrounding trail network remains open for hiking.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
