The property was operated by a variety of textile concerns until 1953, when the property was briefly owned by the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), whose Camp Yawgoog, located on the shores of Wincheck and Yawgoog Ponds, was affected by the mill's water rights. The BSA retained the water rights and sold off the rest of the property. The mill complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006. (en)
