  • Introduction

    SOMETHING NEW IS HAPPING AT THE OLDE MILL INN!!!!

    Check it out!!!!  Visit our website to see the Repairs and restoation of our Grist Mill ~ Soon to be running and producing Cornmeal, Real Grits and Flours again after 70 years!!!!

    This spacious, lovely 1800's Bed and Breakfast is snuggled in East Tennessee's Beautiful Northern Mountains next to our wonderful year round creek, fed from a spring inside a mountain cave across the street. That still moves our Fitz Water wheel, once ran by Chief Black fox and Daniel Boones brother and families for over 100 years before moved here in the 40's! Newly remodeled, large, comfortable, seven (7) unique guest rooms, each with its own private bath, help make it the perfect places for Romance, Relaxation, Family, and Adventure.

    Looking for someplace new to meet your friends/family? Are you looking for the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of your life? With a lot of "Cool" Factor, like feeding our rainbow and brown trout? Unique? One of a kind place? Full of our history? Are you looking for that very special and unique New hideout? You just found it! How about that corporate retreat you have to head up? Wedding/Event coming up and looking for some place that is one of a kind? We can help with all of it.

    Cumberland Gap, Tennessee is close to everything, but just far enough, to be away from it all! Surrounded by thousands of miles of National Forest, our small town is a wonderful hidden treasure. A place where they still sit out on their verandas and visit with you, as you stroll around the town built mostly in the 1800's.
