Reviews
"Old Slater Mill is a lovely national historical park. The history here along the Blackstone Valley is quite cool. Definitely recommend checking out if you are in the area!"
"Fun downtown park! Dog friendly, great views of the river, and the signs were so informative!"
"Nice site that you need to leave time to take the tour, you will not get to see inside the buildings unless you do. We only got to see one because the other 2 are under renovations. There is plenty of parking."
"Interesting National Historic site with a small ranger/Interpreter center and beautiful grounds along the river"
"Small park with the historic Slater Mill, as well as nice views of the Blackstone and a couple of other historic buildings. It’s run by the National Park Service and has a handful of informational signs posted, as well as an audio tour on their app. While tours are offered from April-December, the grounds are open to visitors year round."
