Get to Know Us

We love old, imperfect things, so we found the perfect old building – a 175-year-old grist mill turned lodge in the Shenandoah Valley. We became the proud owners in May 2024 and now operate it as a bed and breakfast so that we may continue to restore it over time. The Mill’s rustic imperfections add to its unique character and informal setting for those memorable moments we hope to help many people create when they stay with us. We love being able to bring new purpose and life to old buildings and taking care of them requires extra time, financial resources, attention to detail and a long-term view of improvements. It also requires that there’s no fuss over things that aren’t perfect. The Mill was built in 1849, and its hand-hewn chestnut columns and beams show wear and tear, markings from previous uses, and cracks from age. We are lucky that this structure is still here today for us to enjoy.
