For over fifty years, this mill ground corn into meal and wheat into flour for the mountain community near Mingus Creek. Instead of a wooden water wheel, a small steel turbine provided power to run the mill's stones and machinery. Rehabilitated by the National Park Service in 1968, the mill operates during the summer as a historical exhibit.
