Historical Tales of Delphi Falls with Jerome Antil

We welcome you to the Madison County Milk House, hosted by Samantha Field the Madison County Public Information Officer.   This is where we talk about the big topics both North and South of Rt. 20.

Delphi Falls County Park was purchased in 2018.  Since then, Madison County has worked hard to make the park a destination that all can enjoy.  As we get closer to the park being fully open to the public once again, take a journey with us to learn more about its past.  

Jerome "Jerry" Mark Antil spent many years of his youth growing up at Delphi Falls.  The majestic two tiered water fall played a huge role in his life and the Antil Family built the original home and barn that used to be on the property.  Jerry's time at Delphi  Falls inspired him, he wrote several books about the area, including the Delphi Falls Trilogy and The Boy and the Big White Rock.  

Delphi Falls County Park has wrapped up the final phase of construction, and the new event hall at the lower falls will be open to the public Summer 2025.  We hope everyone takes a chance to walk the rim trail to the upper falls and enjoy a picnic by the base of the lower falls.
