Sylvan Falls Mill B&B

Rabun Gap

10/10 Exceptional

It is a still working mill and together Mike and Linda team up to provide excellent and healthy food using the mill as well and old cook books. Dinner was fabulous and breakfast was a surprise each time. The house is old obviously, but is kept very clean. We even got clean towels daily! We certainly recommend to have a romantic dinner on the day of arrival sitting at the porch overlooking the waterfall!
