The mill faithfully reproduced of meals and flour for day to day existence of the Smokies' early settlers. Back in early 1800's, a water powered gristmill on the banks of the little Pigeon River became one of the main hubs of activity in the small mountain community.
The giant water wheel that harnesses the flow of the Little Pigeon River is the attractive feature.


The Old Mill is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and just as in the 19th century, it's still one of the most popular places in the Smokies and one of the most photographed mills in the country.
