At a glance
Overview
Sawmill River Falls is the engineered drop on the Sawmill River in Leverett Center, right below the stone-arch bridge on Montague Road. It is a roadside scenic stop rather than a hike — a short set of staged drops below a small dam, best photographed from the bridge and the pull-off shoulder. The channel is not a safe swim.
