What is it about covered bridges that is so compelling? I suppose they have a different effect on each person, but I don't know anyone that isn't attracted to them. We are fortunate to have a nicely restored covered bridge just a short drive from l-5 (exit 21) and that is only the secondary attraction at the site. Hayes Road intersects with Lewis River Road right in front of the Oaktree Restaurant and more or less parallels the river, in an easterly direction, after crossing over the North Fork Lewis River bridge into Clark County. As you drive the road to the Grist Mill and covered bridge you will pass by a beautiful red barn. Many pictures have been taken of this barn. The total distance is only about nine miles. Signs point the way for you and it is a pleasant drive. There is a tree farm where several acres of fir seedlings start their life and depending on the time of the year, you may find roadside stands selling strawberries, corn, pumpkins or even Christmas trees. The Cedar Creek Grist Mill has been restored after one-hundred and twenty three years. The mill is fully operational and will even grind your grain if you bring it along with a small donation.
