Buttermilk Falls Natural Area, 45-foot waterfall in West Wheatfield Township, United States.

The natural area spans 48 acres of woodland, featuring a large waterfall cascading down rocky formations in Indiana County, Pennsylvania.

Fred McFeely, the grandfather of television personality Fred Rogers, owned this estate from 1930 to 1956 as a rural retreat.

The foundations of the McFeely family estate remain near the swimming area, marking the childhood location that influenced Fred Rogers' television career.

Visitors can access an observation deck near the parking area and follow a marked trail leading to the base of the waterfall.

The natural area contains the McFeely Trail with benches positioned throughout the forest for nature observation and walking.
