Old Mill House

When life's constant pressures start to take their toll, seek refuge in the mountains to restore your soul... Located within the coveted Journey Through Hallowed Ground, The Old Mill House Bed & Breakfast is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Madison County. The restored pre-Civil War farmhouse was once a log schoolhouse. A circa 1799 gristmill, miller’s house and barn complete the compound recently placed on The Virginia Landmarks and The National Register of Historic Places. In this region blessed with unsurpassed natural beauty, the Shenandoah National Park (a source of abundant riding trails, hiking, fishing and wildlife) is one mile from the front door. Horseback riders are delighted to find trails leading to Fork Mountain, Big Meadows on the Skyline Drive and to Camp Rapidan (President Herbert Hoover’s hideaway) where they can walk along the streams and look into the remaining buildings and understand why he chose this location as his summer retreat.
