Ridgecrest, North Carolina bed and breakfast: Inn On Mill Creek
The Inn on Mill Creek welcomes guests in one of two buildings: the Main House and the Lake House. Two rooms are pet friendly.

There are four large guest rooms spread across three floors in the Main House. For those who enjoy the particular pampering offered by a four poster king size bed, consider the Lake View room on the top floor. One wall of floor-to-ceiling windows offers a graceful view of the Inn's lake and the woods, giving this room its name. Additional amenities include a gas fireplace, large bathroom/dressing area and private screened porch.

The North Terrace room, a queen bed room located on the ground floor of the Main House, has an entrance through a set of French doors leading to a private parking area and patio with Adirondack rockers, perfect for stargazing on a clear night. A gas fireplace and large separate room with step-up hot tub offer opportunities for relaxation in this popular room.

All three rooms in the Lake House have 14-foot ceilings, queen beds, private baths, Jacuzzi tubs, fireplaces, and sliding glass doors leading to a lakeside deck.

Popular with both couples and small families, two of the Lake House rooms include a sleeping loft with an extra double bed. And for those having too much fun to drive into town for lunch or dinner, a fully appointed guest kitchen is also available in the Lake House.
