Mill House Retreat

Quaint setting with so millhouse and lake with a relaxing view. Condos are different so experiences may differ. We had a very pleasant weeklong stay to enjoy restaurants and autumn foliage. Kitchen was well-equipted, furnishings were new and attractive, and bed was comfortable. It is a small space so I would not recommend for more than two people.

Great place for a relaxing trip. This location is close to wonderful food and local shops and vineyards. They even provide you with a list of local eateries that will give you a discount for staying with Mill House Lodge. Every room offers a fabulous view of lake where they have free canoes and paddle boats.

Awful. Paper thin walls. No peace. No privacy. You can hear every conversation etc etc in the next door unit. If the people next door cook anything, you can smell it at anytime of day or night. If they watch tv, it is like it is in the same room with you.

This was advertised with WiFi, a king size bed, and 1 1/2 bath. However, the WiFi didn’t work, the bed was Queen size and there was no 1/2 bath! Other than that all was good. The mattress was very comfy.

We look forward to staying here each year as we travel through on our way north or south. The rooms are reminiscent of vintage lake cottages. They are basic but comfortable and pristine as far as cleanliness. The millpond and sound of water are very relaxing. We always find something good to eat at local restaurants or grill something to have onsite. The area offers great drives, biking, hiking and interesting places to visit. If you want to venture a bit further, all of Asheville awaits!

We booked a room that was supposed to be "Lake View" and updated , but ended up getting a room that was in the dungeon and smelled of pot and was dark and dingy. We brought our concerns to management and the where rude and unapologetic. Offered to refund us and that we could leave, but nothing else and there was no other place to stay in town. The room was very outdated and not even close to the "Lake". Next to our room was a room that was in shambles that vagrants had been using that wreaked of urine, pot, and God knows what else. The door was left open for anyone to take up camp, when I brought this up to management ( a very rude women who chain smoked on the property) she claimed is was not an issue as they where not renovating it and it was not open. The next day the room was locked ( thankfully) and the beers thrown around the outside had been removed. It is a shame, the property is beautiful. The accommodations and manager on the other hand where deplorable.
