Perfect Location!

by Karla Vesey

We came for a wedding and this location was perfect! Easily walkable to the action, yet secluded enough from the busy streets. We sat by the creek to relax several times. Our code stopped working late on our last night, but the 24 hr service got us back in quickly. We were pleasantly surprised with this suite!

The location of Inn at Mill Creek is outstanding...within walking distance of Main Street and with an adjacent cafe. More importantly, Suite 5 has a fantastic view with a balcony overlooking the creek and lovely stone terrace. Our suite was beautifully decorated and included everything a traveler needs for a comfortable stay. We appreciated the Keurig coffee, ice machine, refrigerator/freezer, and having the rental office close by. The suite was super clean & quiet and the bed was very comfortable, providing for a great night's sleep.Office staff were great. When we needed more coffee, they rushed on over. Many thanks.

I would definitely return to the Inn at Mill Creek and recommend it to others. The balcony over the creek and fireplace really set the mood each day. The Inn is quiet, accommodation first class and shopping, restaurants all within walking distance.The Highlands team was very responsive and professional each time I reached out. My contact was minimal and the experience was perfect! The check in process was seamless and communication prior to, throughout my stay and afterwards were excellent.

The room was wonderfully equipped and clean and it was very easy to find and access. It was also a great rate, and lovely to open the door and hear the stream beneath us. The fire place was relaxing when returning from a hike, the mini fridge was perfect to keep snacks and drinks cool, the huge shower felt luxurious, and huge porch overlooking the creek was perfect to sit on with a cocktail or coffee and listen to the stream below.

This property was lovely! Very clean and beautiful, reserved parking, perfectly located, and hands-down the single most comfortable bed weve encountered during our many travels. The suite was very well appointed and the bath was a spa-like experience. I cannot say enough! We will always look to this property for future returns to the area!Everyone we encountered was very polite, personable, and professional.

Review from Kelly

by Kelly
I truly cannot wait to come back here! Truly one of the best places in stay in town. I got into my room late in the evening but with the keyless entry it was so easy and safe for me traveling alone. Walking into a clean and cozy room with a fire place and balcony looking over the mountain stream was just what I needed. The bed will put you to sleep so quickly, its soft, fluffy, and very spacious. The next morning I enjoyed breakfast and the little cafe downstairs and the food was to die for. I am sad to leave but I truly cannot wait to bring my husband and/or girls weekend!Easy, enjoyable, and fast!
