There are a lot of spots that you can view the main waterfall in Fall Creek Falls State Park, and this is by far the most popular one. There are usually a lot of people up above here, but as you move down towards the base of the falls, the crowds start to thin out. Fall Creek Falls and Coon Creek Falls sit side by side, and you get a direct view from here. There are some overlooks on the other side of the gorge that you can view the falls from that usually aren't quite as busy.
