History
Alexis and Brock bought an abandoned 1930s sawmill in Whittier in the summer of 2018 and have renovated the building to open a new event venue. The building captured their hearts when they first laid eyes on the oversized barn doors, gorgeous timber-frame ceilings and hardwood floors. These are the exact features that they wanted to highlight in the new venue.
Location
The Parker Mill is conveniently located just off Highway 74 between Sylva and Cherokee and is embedded in national forest parks.

Breathtaking beauty, attention to detail and a lovely staff/owners.
We recently had an event at The Parker Mill and words do not express how impressive the venue is and the scenic beauty which surrounds it but on top of that, the owners couldn't be more lovely. They were attentive, helpful, and kind. They went above and beyond. Our organization is literally brainstorming ideas for parties just so we can go back to the beautiful place and work with them again. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The Parker Mill is fabulous. Thank you so much, Alexis and Brody.
