    This is a small historic park. It has a house, Mill, iron workshop, general shop, a large picnic area,, trails,, etc... plenty of parking. I've been here several times, and it's a great place for photography. If I remember correctly, we took pictures here for one of my photography classes. When I visited today, I spotted 2 deer... so cute! This park is also very dogfriendly.

    One of the oldest automated water mills in US and the sole functional one in NOVA. When you want to visit the site, ensure you arrive by11:30, when they start up the mill. This way you don’t only get an explanation of the mechanism but how it is actually put together, in front of your eyes.

    What a wonderful tour. Interesting, detailed, and was amazing seeing the inner workings of this gem. We've lived here years and only just went. Go, you'll enjoy it.

    Visited with family. Very interesting tour - staff knew a lot about how a mill worked and a lot of the history. Beautiful building and learned a lot.

    Very cool park! We weren't there for a demonstration or the store, but we'll have to come back.

    Historic Mill right off route 7. Good place for a lunch picnic followed by a walk around the property.

    The stone ground corn meal for the mill is amazing! The exhibits are very detailed and the mill is a wonderful example of history.
