Thorp Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Across the street from the Thorp Mill is this photogenic old barn. Not sure who owns it or how much use they make of it, but it sure looks pretty.

You can't miss this produce market from the freeway! We were there during peach season and the peaches were just wonderful. In addition to fresh produce you'll also find quite a few specialty foods like vinegars, oils, chocolates, jellies, sauces and more. Nothing you can't find in Seattle, but it's worth a quick stop just for the country-farm atmosphere (and maybe some ice cream).
This grist mill was built in the 1880s and operated as a feed and flour mill until 1946. The area was first developed ten years earlier when James Mills dug a 2-mile (3.2km) ditch from the Yakima River to create a log pond and power his sawmill. The grist mill was powered by the same outflow, and with the arrival of the Northern Pacific Railroad in 1886 and Milwaukee Road in 1908, the mill was able to sell it's products nationwide. In addition to the sawmill and grist mill the owners added an ice pond in 1889 to service the Northern Pacific. Between this pond, and the larger Sprague Lake, over 40,000 tons of ice could be packed into hundreds of refrigerated cars each year. Using sawdust to insulate the ice, they were able to supply the railroads all the way through to the end of summer. Today the grist mill serves as a small museum and a reminder of human ingenuity and capitalism. The turn-of-the-century equipment inside has earned it a place on the National Register of Historic Places.

Area was beautiful. Our mattress, comforter and pillows were all lumpy and uncomfortable. Food and drinks were insanely high. One white russian $22 before the tip. Price gauging ruins any trip yet people must pay it. Check-in at 4 pm is really late. We travel often and it’s never been so late. Overall ...
