The Dells Mill and Museum is located about 20 miles from Eau Claire and 12 miles from I-94 in Osseo. It is only open Fridays and Saturdays 9-5. There is plenty of parking. There is a donation box for taking pictures.
You are allowed to walk around the outside of the mill when it's not open. We did that last fall but I wanted to go inside.
We decided to stop on our way to Eau Claire and check it out when it's open. It is part museum, part store that sold Amish bakery.
You can wander around the ground floor but if you want a tour it's $10/person. It covers the 5 floors of the mill with lots of stars. The hubby is not fond of staircases and high places especially ones that are fairly open. I'll keep that on the bucket list for another day.
The store was very small. I was hoping to snag a post card but I didn't see one. The cherry angel food cake looked really good but we had cheesecake in the car.
After checking out the mill, we walked down to the bridge and checked out the falls. The mill wheel was moving the time and it was very picturesque.
We even had a nice chat with an Amish man.
Overall it was a nice stop. If you ever find yourself in that are on a Friday or Saturday afternoon, take a moment to go back in time and check out the Dells Mill.
