Great food! Great views! And absolutely love the bartender there! Such a great selection of beer, bourbon and mixed drinks. You won’t regret stopping here.
Oh my goodness. The most insanely great service you could imagine. I just finished a 4 day hike on the AT and the tour of the mill gave me goosebumps; the art and history will blow your mind. They were closed for a private party and the owner went really far out of his way to make sure I had a great stay. 11/10. Definitely coming back.
Noteworthy details: Very accommodating to hikers.

We stayed here over Veterans Day weekend and just loved this place. We stayed in room 204, which is an "L" shaped room with a queen-size bed and a fold-out couch. Our teenager used the fold out. There was plenty of room (even after couch was folded out) and the bathroom was an adequate size as well. In fact, we kept our 3 bikes in the room as well, without issue. Our room had two windows which overlook the creek running behind the Inn. One window is large and over looks a balcony. The balcony isn't private to our room (although some rooms do have private balconies), but all you have to do is exit the room, then exit outside - very convenient. Our room had a large screen tv. Our only issue with the tv was we couldn't adjust the volume and it was set really low. Along these lines, the hotel was very quiet. Our bed was extremely comfortable! All the employees seemed very friendly and accommodating. Our breakfast, which came with the room, was great the next morning - what a lovely place to have your coffee. The location of this inn is perfect for exploring Damascus and getting access to the Creeper Trail. We were here to bike the trail from Abingdon to Damascus (shuttled to Abingdon through Sundog Damascus).
Nearby activities: Wicked Chicken, Appalachian Heritage Distillery & Brewery, multiple bike rental and gift shops, Wilson's Cafe & Grill (excellent food here), and convenient to the Virginia Creeper Trail. Food City is a short drive away. Laurel Creek Park (home of the local farmer’s market) is next door to Inn.
Walkability: You can walk everywhere in this town from Old Mill Inn - or bike.

Did not stay at the Inn- but ate at the restaurant. Hands down the best hamburger around. Looking forward to returning there soon after the mess from Helene begins to clear up. So glad to know that this treasure survived.
The food was very good and the desserts were awesome!

Out of most items we were interested in ordering. Had we ordered flies, we would have been in the right place. Waitress was very nice, location was beautiful but other than that you could not enjoy your meal, which was not great by a long shot, for the serious invasion of Flys! Very bad. Would not spend that kind of money for a meal that was not worth but 1/3 what it cost!
Noteworthy details: Not worth the trip, dtinks and food were poor at best, and the flies were terrible. Won't go back.

Service was great, food was overdone or TASTELESS, in that it was tough. The manager didn't seem to care. He needs a different career.

Dinner: 16 Oz ribeye we returned both due to being overcooked. Waitress gave us a complimentary pimento cheese dip with no veggies or pita slices. We ate it with a fork. Second steak temp was correct but so tough and flavorless. Honestly, Texas Roadhouse does a better job. So disappointed that nor the Chef or Manager spoke to us after expressing our concerns. My fiancee had to go inside to locate the manager. I am so disappointed and was hoping to give a good review
The restaurant is under new management however, nothing has changed.

Great location but the food isn't very good. Make sure you sit outside. Chicken and burgers were over cooked.

Had dinner here on our anniversary. Big mistake. Out of trout and service was terrible. My chicken was burned and the appetizer tasted a brick. Sorry that I bothered to call and make reservations. Will not be returning.
