Enjoy Your Stay at Our Bed and Breakfast Near Black Mountain, NC

“To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.”  ~ Helen Keller

At the Inn on Mill Creek, you can select among five spacious and comfortable guest rooms, each with their own individual style inspired by our location inside Pisgah National Forest. The Evergreen Room, Carolina Room and Oak Leaf Room are in the Main House, while the Mountain Laurel Room and Maple Tree Room are in the Deck House. The Main House and the Deck House are separated by the Pool Garden, a lovely butterfly and hummingbird-friendly perennial and herb garden that was formerly a swimming pool!

Evergreen Room

Frequently chosen for romantic and/or extended getaways, the 600 sq. ft. Evergreen Room is our largest room, located on the second floor of the Main House. This expansive king bed room with a 14′ peak rough-hewn cedar ceiling has full-length windows gracing the entire south wall with four-season views of the National Forest, our garden spaces, and the peaceful pond. Other features include a woodstove-inspired gas fireplace, writing desk, and 32″ satellite HD-TV as well as a DVD player.
