"Keep close to nature's heart...and break clear away, once in a while and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods..." John Muir

Discover a wonderful day (or several) in the mountains and woods of Western North Carolina during your stay at the Inn on Mill Creek, an Asheville/Black Mountain area bed and breakfast literally surrounded by North Carolina's Pisgah National Forest.

Geographically, we're centrally located between the always photogenic Biltmore Estate, Mount Mitchell {the highest peak in the eastern United States} along the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the lovely Lake Lure/Chimney Rock State Park area. The town of Black Mountain, with its walkable downtown, charming shops and local farm-friendly restaurants is just 10 minutes to the west, while the historic railroad town of Old Fort is 15 minutes to the east.

Our area attracts the nature lover, the romantic, the history buff, and those who like to take the scenic route to a relaxing and rejuvenating destination.

With over seven private, wooded acres, seven casual and comfortable guest rooms, and two rhododendron-filled miles of protected forest land between our B&B and the rat race, you have the easy task of taking your vacation at your own pace.
