Dwell among history!

'Rented for a team I hired for a project in the vicinity. There are 3 private rooms, and 6 "beds" pretty much in one large area. My team loved it with the only negative comment being that traffic was a constant awareness but what do you expect being located right on the road -- proximity was the reason we chose it! 'Gorgeous of mix bare-bones, rusticness and thoughtful amenities.

The Mill

Needed a large place to stay for a diverse group of family and friends. Met our needs perfectly. Adam was a great host.

Great for the active

A truly unique property in a special part of the world. If you are looking for an unusual and active holiday then thoroughly recommend staying at Old Masters Mill. It has been thoughtfully restored and renovated to make a comfortable living space and to offer a taste of the outdoors right on the doorstep. The creek is beautiful and the waterfall gently lulls you to a state of relaxation. The road is quite busy but you soon adjust to the pace of Loafers Glory and it’s comings and goings. Recommend Roan High Knob and anywhere on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Crabtree Falls are a memorable experience and were one of our highlights. If you fancy a trip further afield, Asheville has a surprisingly active arts community by the river, truly something for everyone!
