Plan an adults-only visit to Bluegrass Spring
Falling Rock Park operates as Bluegrass Spring, a private quarry recreation venue near La Grange. The operator currently says it is closed for the season and thanks visitors for the 2026 season. That is a seasonal notice, not evidence that the venue has permanently closed.
Use the operator's current entrance
The current address is 2101 Fendley Mill Road, La Grange. The archived address of 2201 is not the address now published by the operator. Check reopening announcements and tickets before driving; conflicting weekly schedules on the site should not override its seasonal closure banner.
Photo ID and a float are required
Admission is strictly for adults 18 and older, with a physical government-issued photo ID. Anyone entering the water must keep a flotation device within arm's reach. There are no lifeguards, and the operator warns of deep water, slippery and sharp rocks and no diving.
Pack around the quarry rules
Outside snacks are allowed, but outside beverages, hard-shell coolers and grills are prohibited. Bring an empty bottle for the ice-water stations. Pets, alcohol, fishing and recreational scuba are not allowed; only inflatable rather than hard-shell kayaks and paddleboards are accepted. Appropriate swimwear is required, with no nudity.
Plan with the responsible manager
Getting There
Use Bluegrass Spring's current address, 2101 Fendley Mill Road, La Grange. Confirm reopening and admission before travel; do not use the archived 2201 address as the current entrance.

Plan Your Visit
Parking & Access
Confirm the entrance, parking arrangements, and legal access with the land manager. A map pin does not establish a public right of access. Follow posted routes and never block gates or driveways.
Regulations & Fees
Operator-authorized swimming and floating during its operating season; currently seasonally closed. No diving, fishing or recreational scuba. Closed for the 2026 season as checked October 14, 2026. Confirm the next opening calendar directly. Public park access does not necessarily include permission to swim. Respect private property and posted restrictions.
Seasonality & Flow
Water conditions can change quickly. This listing does not provide a current safety or water-quality assessment. Check official alerts and avoid entering water when conditions or permission are uncertain.
What to Bring
Bring sturdy water shoes to protect your feet on rocks and slippery surfaces. A waterproof dry bag keeps your phone, keys, and valuables safe. Pack a quick-dry towel, sun protection, and drinking water - never drink from the natural water source.
Nearby Facilities
Nearby places from saved public map data, not necessarily facilities at the swimming spot. Confirm access, hours, fees, and amenities with the operator before you drive.
