Its water comes from Haw Creek tributary. You'll find it in Johnson, Arkansas. It is protected within Ozark-St. Francis National Forest (USFS).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. A short walk gets you to the viewpoint, so it works for most casual visitors and families. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 1 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Hagarville, the closest town.
When to go: Spring (March-May) after rain. Like most waterfalls, Pam's Grotto Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
