When you come down the hill at the end of the Roaring Fork Motor Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, stop in at Ely’s Mill. It’s a neat little gift shop that dates from the 1920s with local crafts, and honey taken from the hives that stand in the field outside. You can also get to Ely’s Mill by driving up Roaring Fork Road from Rt. 321 out of downtown Gatlinburg.

    This brings back memories. I used to fish & swim (sort of) in the creek by the mill. Sherman Clabo was my Dad’s grandpa and we lived there for a while in the early 50’s. Thanks for sharing these.
