Have an adventure! Historic Mill Creek is a trip back to the 1830s, and so much more. Feel the power of the creek as it is harnessed to operate the water-powered sawmill. Smell the fresh sawdust as sawyers demonstrate the pitsaw method of cutting lumber. You may be lucky enough to be selected to help! Explore engaging exhibits inside the Visitor's Center and at the Millwright's House, and learn about farming in the Workshop. While Historic Mill Creek is teeming with history, its natural history is equally fascinating. Join trained naturalists for guided nature walks, and learn about the wild side of Mill Creek during Nature of the North Woods programs. Or, go on your own through the park's three miles of groomed trails.
Witness the power of the creek harnessed to cut timber into lumber at one of the oldest industrial sites on the Upper Great Lakes. Smell the sawdust as sawyers demonstrate the pit saw method of cutting lumber, then feel the power of the creek used to cut timber inside the reconstructed sawmill.
Join trained naturalists for engaging programs showcasing the North Woods, and then take time to explore the natural beauty of Mill Creek State Park, which has more than three miles of groomed hiking trails.
