Very glad we chose City Mills, super cute boutique style stay. The restaurant was wonderful. Whoever did the remodel left enough history to give it lots of character. Would definitely stay again.

This is an old grist mill. I thought we were to have an outside balcony,however I had chosen water view. It is a very interesting destination, in town and on the river, a lady named Patty was busy taking care of breakfast and took the time to show us a beautiful view of the River.
