Campbell Falls State Park Reserve, Nature reserve in Litchfield County, United States.

The Whiting River flows through Campbell Falls State Park Reserve, creating a waterfall that descends nearly 100 feet before entering Connecticut state territory.

The White Memorial Foundation donated the land in 1923, leading to joint protection agreements between Connecticut and Massachusetts through special laws enacted in 1924.

The stone monument marking the border between Connecticut and Massachusetts serves as a geographical reference point for visitors exploring the natural reserve.

The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection manages this 102-acre reserve, offering trails for hiking and opportunities for stream fishing.

The park features a dual-state management system, with both Connecticut and Massachusetts sharing responsibility for preserving its natural resources.
