    Another fantastic stay at StoneMill. Enjoyed brilliant fall colors while biking the Root River Trail on our tandem. We've stayed at Stone Mill 7 times in the past 10 years and each time our experience has been outstanding. It's our favorite get-away inn of the dozens of B&B's we've stayed at while biking throughout the US. Friendly service, clean rooms, charmingly restored historical building. We recommend Stone Mill to all our friends.

    Amish Room - Don't let the internet picture deceive you. We thought it would be tiny. Instead it was a cute spacious room, enough room for two twin air mattresses on the floor in addition to the queen bed and awesome with your own private entrance to the street. A little noisy with trucks and harvest season but not an annoyance (adds to the quaintness of the town, it was harvest season), could hear the ice machine run for 15 minutes at 7 a.m. (poor folks in the forest room). Not sure what was disappointing about breakfast, tasty (pastries from the cafe freshly baked) but looking for something different or more filling. Plenty of breakfast joints available downtown in walking distance and it was enough to tie you over till lunch. TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CLEANLINESS WITH GREAT UNIQUENESS. We would do it all over again and even the same room if that was the only option. Great package deals too.


    Another great stay at Stone Mill Hotel and Suites!

    This is our favorite place to stay of anywhere! The entire place is very unique and quaint and very clean! The staff is especially helpful, caring and very personable. They take a genuine interest in you as people and you really do feel you are leaving good friends when you say goodbye. If the staff can't answer a question for you, they will do what they can to find out. Always very helpful! Cannot say enough great things about staying at Stone Mill. Do not miss the opportunity to stay a great place!

    We went up to bike for two days and enjoy the fall weather. We always like to stay at Stone Mill as the staff here is simply the best. They always seem like family and act that way as well. The rooms are quaint and the location is the best. We enjoyed the theater as well and the great dining at Village Hall and Root on the River. We canot wait to get back to enjoy more of the wonderful biking and food.
