If your near Arab Al I recommend you go there.

My understanding is that this is still private property. I was unable to determine if the owner's were allowing visitation despite attempts to contact them.

It is on private property, but the owners gave permission to put a geocache there.

I looked up the cache. Glad to see they are allowing access. It was very much up in the air the last time I checked, since people were regularly going to the falls, but nobody I contacted knew the owners, and my attempts to contact them myself did not result in a response.
It is a cool waterfall based on what I have seen, and I would recommend it if they are allowing access.

I also recommend Thompson Falls especially with the long cascade and needle eye below it. A couple years ago someone in the library in Arab gave us directions to it so I assumed it was okay for visitation.
