A restored grist mill featuring a 40 foot overshot water wheel. It is believed to be the largest operating water wheel in the world. The mill was restored and is currently operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers as a day use recreation area on the shore of Lake Cumberland. Besides the mill, there is a gift shop and picnic area. The recreation area can be accessed from the lake via boat slips as well as by car. The operating season is May through September.
Very cool place to visit! Nice old mill that is still in operation grinding can into flour. A gift shop, paved walking trail out to picnic tables and a group shelter with a grill and tables, and a canon at the point looking out over the lake. Gift shop and mill are open seasonally.
