In the fall of 1832, Elora founder Captain William Gilkison forged ahead with his dream of creating a water-powered settlement by establishing a sawmill on the north side of the scenic Grand River. Resilient throughout economic highs and lows, restored in the face of natural disaster and adaptable as host to a multitude of business ventures, the Elora Mill truly reflects the town’s motto “Time Commands All Things.”

The outfitting of the mill with updated equipment and the inclusion of cattle pens, storage buildings, a barn, distillery and general store helped define Elora as a major agricultural marketplace in the 1850s and 1860s. A century later, the structure has undergone another major rebirth where it was converted into a five-star hotel.
