This year is North Carolina’s Year of the Trail, celebrating all kinds of trails and all the good things about them. And all year long, we’re sharing our favorite trails in the greater Asheville area, focusing on those within an hour of the Inn on Mill Creek B&B, as well as new trails coming to our neck of the woods.
In 2023, we’re rolling out a new feature called Our Favorite Things – a short list of places in our neck of the woods where you can find the stuff that brings joy, for your trip planning purposes.
We have some exciting news to share, in the form of two tiny and adorable pups! Chibi (black) and Honey (fawn) are the newest members of our Department of Leisure and the next generation of innpugs at the Inn on Mill Creek Bed & Breakfast.
If you’re a fan of Hallmark movies, you’ll be excited to hear that Biltmore Estate in Asheville is going to be the location for a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie, scheduled to be released for this year’s Christmas season!
As you may know, the Inn on Mill Creek Bed & Breakfast is located two miles inside Pisgah National Forest, between Black Mountain and Old Fort, North Carolina. This means we have beautiful dark skies at night, often clear and full of stars.
Near the southern end of the property, adjacent to Pisgah National Forest and just beyond our pond, lies a half acre of wetlands, or as they call it in the mountains, a high elevation bog.
We love gardens… and plants… and flowers. This is no secret if you have been to the Inn on Mill Creek Bed & Breakfast. It comes as no surprise, then, that one of Innkeeper/Engineer Dave’s 2022 projects was to build a new set of six planters, similar to the ones he built that line the outside of the dining solarium.
Catawba Falls in Pisgah National Forest has become one of the most-loved waterfall hikes around here, and with it being the closest waterfall to the Inn on Mill Creek B&B, it is for sure appreciated by our nature loving guests. That’s why we want to share that the trail is currently undergoing improvements by the U.S. Forest Service and is slated to reopen in Spring of 2023.
One of our most popular complimentary amenities has become our digital guidebook, which we introduced to guests in November of 2020.
