    What a nice lake Mill Pond is. Mill Pond frequently gets much rainfall; March is when you get the most rain here; the driest of the months is October. But wait, there's more to do near Mill Pond. Mill Pond is a delightful location to visit for more than one day, Knoxville East KOA is a delightful location to camp nearby. After a long day outdoors Comfort Suites Kodak is a good place to spend a night or two; there's nice hiking along the Laurel Falls Trail.

Do pay a visit to Great Smoky Mountains National Park since you're here at Mill Pond, and Mill Pond is not the only location close by, Callans Pond is a close by lake. This lake is so wonderful. In case you don’t have a problem getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Little River, and you  
               can go for a hike on the Cove Mountain Trail.
A good location for whitewater paddling close to Mill Pond is Cove Creek, and it's a good idea to pop by Berry Branch.

Little River
19 miles away
Correction:
The run described here is actually from the Elbow to the Y. It is incorrectly labeled Elbow to Townsend.

There is another run from the Y to Townsend, but there is a low level Dam about 2 miles from the Y that has to be portaged. This run is about 4 miles. It has Class 2+ rapids at the start and gradually gets easier till it is Class 1 as the trip approaches Townsend....
This is a very scenic run.  The Little River run through The Smoky Mountain National Park along Little River Road. The put-in is 2.6 miles from the Y driving towards the Sinks.  You should go with a group of experience paddlers that have run this section before.  There is a rapid called Mary's Rock that is Class 2+ rapid with a deadly undercut rock that has nearly trapped unaware paddlers under water.  This rapid should be portage by most paddlers.  Advanced paddlers should not have any difficulties making the S-turn that is required to successfully run this rapid. There are probably 8-10 Class 2 rapids to go along with the 5-6 rapids that are Class 2+ or 3.  This run is is runnable in the wet season (Fall to Winter).  You need a minimum 600 cfs on the Little River Maryville gauge....
