Verse for Thought
I look to the hills! Where will I find help? It will come from the Lord, who created the heavens and the earth."

The well-cared-for 3.5 story limestone mill of 40'X 55' dimensions resides in a delightful natural glade setting along Beaver Run shortly before it joins French Creek. The mill serves as a private residence.
