About the Mill

The Spencerville Mill & Museum (SMM), owned and operated by the not-for-profit Spencerville Mill Foundation (SMF), is a beautifully preserved 1860s three-storey gristmill located on the South Nation River.

When you rent the Mill, you can enjoy two levels indoors as well as the riverside Mill Park.

• Indoor capacity: 135 guests maximum
• Sit-down receptions: approximately 75 on the main level or 100 on the upper level
• With a dance floor upstairs: about 80 guests is most comfortable

The Mill is a DIY venue, which means you can bring your own personal touches. We provide tables and chairs, while you take care of set-up, decorating, and clean-up. We ask that you return everything to its original spot at the end of your event.

For everyone’s safety, artifacts, exhibits, and machinery are part of the museum and cannot be moved or altered without permission.
