Small Town Charm with Big City Amenities
We took a last minute trip to N East Tennessee. Looked at Hotels.com for somewhere to stay. Didn’t want to stay at the local chains. Damascus Old Mill Inn came very highly recommended by the reviews and rating. This hotel did not disappoint! It is comfortable, clean, has all the amenities you need and was beautifully situated on the creek with flowing water. We were upgraded to a creek front room. The check in staff walked us to our room, made sure we had what we needed before leaving. And in the morning, we had a wonderful breakfast made by the sweetest lady. She was so kind and friendly; it started our morning off right! It is very popular in the summer due to the Appalachian Trail that runs through town. And the old Creeper Trail that runs up the mountain. Would highly recommend! There is a bar and restaurant also onsite at the facility. Thanks for making our last minute getaway so relaxing! We will definitely be back!

Cute, comfy, and peaceful
Ms. Betty is wonderful! I arrived late because I was driving all day, and she was very helpful in getting me checked in late, and making sure that I had a nice breakfast before getting back on the road the next day. The waterfall view was calming and a nice break from an otherwise stressful couple days of driving. I hope to come back in the future with time to properly enjoy myself and explore the area.

Virginia Creeper Overnight Stay
We enjoyed our one night stay at the Old Mill. The location is perfect for all activities in Damascus. Very walkable to downtown. The room was impeccably clean. The beds were comfortable with quality bedding. I would stay here again.

I called about late check in and when we arrived no one was there. We walked all around the property and it was completely locked up. Walked into several cobwebs. Looked in windows and tables were not very nice. Looked abandoned. Phone was never answered.

What a lovely setting! We had dinner at their restaurant on site overlooking the mill stream! The room accommodations were nicely appointed and very comfortable. Everyone on the staff was very friendly and helpful. We hope to return there again to visit more of the shops in the town and surrounding areas.

The staff and bartender were excellent. But we thought we were booking the mill inn instead we were put into the old house across the street. It was quaint and clean but i dont think it was worth 200 a night. The tv remote didn’t work the tv. No instructions anywhere for anything. The ac wasn’t working properly. The free breakfast was cold ,coffee luke warm no microwave or way to heat things up. It just wasn’t worth 200 a night.
