Ogemaw Falls (4), photo by David Hedquist
GoWaterfalling relegates Ogemaw Falls to its Minor Waterfalls page, but it looks like a very pretty spot nonetheless!
Ogemaw Falls is a 12 foot drop on Ogemaw Creek in Baraga County Michigan. It is located off of Baraga Plains Road, which intersects with US-41 just a mile or so north of Canyon Falls. Head west for about 1.5 miles. The road will turn to the left, and there will be a large pond to the left. This is where the road crosses Ogemaw Creek. The falls are a few hundred yards to the left. The road crosses above the falls, so you cannot see them from the road. You have to climb down into the gorge to get a view. This is not difficult, but there is no real trail. This is a small waterfall. Many much more impressive waterfalls can be found in Baraga County.
David Hedquist is the author of Waterfalling in Wisconsin and now he’s turning his attention (and camera) on Michigan’s falls. View his photo background big and see more views including closer up and even a video on his Ogemaw Falls slideshow.
Many (many) more Michigan waterfalls can be found on Michigan in Pictures!


We go there all the time. There is a good trail and sign to the falls across the street from the pond.

We were there last week. We went 10 different falls in one day. All of them were close to Bear Paw Inn. I loved every second of it. While on our week stay up there I took over 3000 pictures. Mich is just so beautiful I had to capture the moment.
