Cedar Creek Falls is formed by an overflow dam on Cedar Creek in southwest Olathe, Kansas just above Lake Olathe. It was recommended by Randy Rasa kansascyclist.com. There is a flow of water year around, but Cedar Creek Falls is most impressive in the spring or after a heavy rain.

Lake Olathe is a 170 acre lake surrounded by a 208 acre community park dedicated in 1959. 


Olathe Lake has fishing for bluegill, channel catfish, crappie, flathead catfish, green sunfish, largemouth bass, saugeye
and wiper - this spot just below the falls is just one of the popular fishing spots on the lake.
