About this spot
Tanasee Creek Falls is a roughly 15 ft waterfall on Tanasee Creek near Tuckasegee, NC, reached via a short (about 0.6-mile round trip) route off Charleys Creek Road, several miles from NC 215. The approach requires a creek crossing just below where Pinhook Creek joins, close to the top of the falls — a slip hazard worth caution. No developed parking or facilities. No documented swimming or jumping culture; this is a photography/waterfall-hiking destination rather than a known swim spot.
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.
