Yahoo Falls is located in the Daniel Boone National Forest, part of the Big South Fork National Park. Turn off of US 27 at the Shell station at Marshes Siding. Cross the railroad tracks and drive about 3 miles. Look for a sign on the right. Drive a couple of miles and you'll see the shelter, restrooms and parking lot.

There is a 1.5 mile loop that goes over and around or the quarter of a mile hike down to the falls. The water supply for Yahoo Falls is Yahoo Creek and then it empties into Lake Cumberland which can be seen on the upper trail. This McCreary County waterfall in the Big South Fork of the Cumberland River National Park is the tallest waterfall in Kentucky. Yahoo Falls, {Ywahoo Falls}, Cumberland Falls, and Eagle Falls in Kentucky, were regarded as sacred by Native Americans.
