This is my little hideaway! I’ve been coming to this park for 40 years since I was a small child so it holds more sentimental value for me than most but a great place for anyone to start a new tradition! And!!!…. Fun fact: this mill was built so solid that its structure survived the worst flood in TN history in 2010. Nothing but a couple of tiny stones were turned. It is a beautiful piece of History and you can almost feel the history when you step into it.

A beautiful and quick historical stop for the traveling history lover. Plenty of parking with easy access to the mill's interior, all fenced in for safety making an easy viewing experience even for those with small children. However, if you follow the small grave trail behind the mom down to the river, there are no fences preventing one from falling in, and there is also a spot where you can walk out onto the dam portion, completely at your own risk. Parents might wanna keep one hand and two eyes in energetic little ones on that side on the mill!
