Babcock Mill

The beautiful and historic Babcock Mill is located on the banks of the Millhaven Creek in the village of Odessa. The mill is an important part of Loyalist Township's rich history. The stone mill was built in 1856 on land deeded by the British Government to Joshua Booth in 1803.

This picturesque property is the perfect location for an afternoon play at the natural play structure or a stroll along the newly developed path, topped off with a picnic on the grass overlooking the creek.
