Overview
The Cascade is a ledge drop on Messalonskee Stream at the outlet of Messalonskee Lake in Oakland, in the Kennebec Valley just west of Waterville. The spot is tied to the old mill history of the town and sits near a public park path along the stream. It is a village-scale scenic stop and photograph rather than a swim destination.
