At a glance
Overview
Bar Mills is a dam-and-cascade feature on the Saco River at the Bar Mills village, straddling the Buxton / Hollis town line in York County. It is a townscape hydro-era feature rather than a wild waterfall, with visible infrastructure and private land on both banks. Not a swim spot; scenic viewing from the public bridge is the safe option.
