Grimshawes Post Office
America’s Smallest Post Office for 75 Years
Nestled in the shadow of Whiteside Mountain, stands a little one-room wooden shack. Grimshawes Post Office served as the nation’s smallest for 75 years, from 1878-1953. This family-friendly attraction is completely free and a must-see while visiting the Cashiers Area. Snap a quirky family photo out front, and read about the history of this perfectly preserved piece of Americana.
