COVID-19 Updates

Picture
The Franklin Creek Grist Mill is operating under Phase 4.5 guidelines. However, we are normally closed during the winter and reopen in April.  A reservation is needed for picking up an online order during the winter. Masks are required for entry if unvaccinated.

Franklin Creek State Natural Area is open for limited activities including hiking and camping for equestrian users. For more information about DNR owned properties follow the link here.

The FCCA Headwaters property is also open for hiking. For directions please visit our Headwaters page.

An inherent risk of exposure to the coronavirus exists in any public place where people are present. The coronavirus is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death.
