Recent Mills River vacation rental reviews

Absolutely loved our stay!! Beautifully renovated home centrally located in Mills River, literally on property right next to Mills River Brewery which is amazing. We came to visit family for Thanksgiving and enjoyed a beautiful stay at this home. Gorgeous views of the sunset, a peaceful and serene environment. We would love to come back, thank you!

We loved the location next to a great brewery and the comfy open vibe of the house. The only issues were an oversight on the housekeeping schedule that resulted in our rental not being cleaned before our check in. We unfortunately had to do some sprucing up, but they promptly refunded our cleaning fee. We also had to leave half way through our stay due to Hurricane Helene, but we purchased travel insurance so we're covered. Our dogs enjoyed the large grounds and we slept comfortably the few nights we were there. There were also multiple workers on the property updating the out buildings on the grounds during the day as well as events like an air stream rally and bike race that ran through the far end of the property, but they didn't disrupt our stay.

It was quiet and a nice home for rent. I would definitely rent again
