Description
There are some places that instantly invite you to slow down.

Where mornings begin with the gentle murmur of a mountain creek. Where cool breezes drift through the trees, coffee tastes a little better on the deck, and evenings are spent beneath a sky full of stars gathered around a crackling fire.

Welcome to your own peaceful corner of the Blue Ridge Mountains at Mill Timber Lodge.

Tucked away just outside the charming mountain town of Newland, this beautifully appointed three-bedroom retreat offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and natural beauty. Vaulted ceilings, warm wood accents, and thoughtfully designed living spaces create an atmosphere that feels both spacious and wonderfully cozy: the kind of place where time seems to move a little slower.

The heart of the home is an inviting open living area where everyone naturally comes together. Prepare memorable meals in the fully equipped kitchen, gather around the dining table to share stories from the day's adventures, or settle in for a relaxing evening with your favorite movie as the electric fireplace adds a warm mountain ambiance. Enjoy making lifelong memories with the kids upstairs in the loft as you challenge each other to games of PacMan and Galaga on the arcade!

When it's time to unwind, the primary King suite becomes a private sanctuary. Wake to peaceful creek views, step directly onto your private deck, and let the soothing sound of flowing water become the soundtrack to your mountain getaway. The spa-inspired ensuite bath provides the perfect place to relax after a day spent exploring the High Country. Down the hall are two more dreamy escapes, one with a Queen bed and the other with a Double bed and single Twin bed, and these rooms share a second beautiful bathroom.

Outside is where this home truly shines. Spend lazy afternoons stretched out in the hammock with a good book, grill dinner while the creek flows nearby, enjoy meals in the fresh mountain air, watch fireflies dance as you enjoy the cool air at the gas firetable, or gather around the wood burning fire pit down on the banks of Mill Creek as the evening settles over the valley. Every outdoor space has been designed to help you disconnect from busy schedules and reconnect with the people who matter most.

Whether you're chasing waterfalls, hiking scenic mountain trails, skiing fresh powder, discovering local wineries, or simply exploring the shops and restaurants of Banner Elk, Linville, and Newland, you'll find some of the High Country's favorite destinations just a short drive away. Then, when the day is done, you'll return to the quiet comfort of your own creekside retreat.

Perfect for families, couples, and friends alike, the home is thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including high-speed Wi-Fi, Smart TVs with premium streaming services, a fully stocked kitchen, family-friendly amenities, and convenient self check-in.

Come breathe the cool mountain air. Listen to the creek. Watch the stars appear one by one. The mountains have a way of helping you remember what it feels like to truly relax, and Mill Timber Lodge is waiting for you.

Great rental, clean and spacious. My family was very comfortable and enjoyed the week. Have never rented a house so well stocked. Robbie and Sherry have thought to everything that makes a vacation stress free and enjoyable. – Helen, review left August 2022 under prior management

This home is a great space for a lot of people!! We had 7 people in our party, all adults and we felt we had plenty of room. The dining table is fantastic and accommodated us all and we never felt like we were on top of each other. The large kitchen was full of everything we needed and then some. Huge refrigerator and freezer and great coffee bar. We especially enjoyed sipping our locally bought wine on the deck at sunset and plenty of chairs for everyone!! Finally a driveway that held all 4 cars, it is so hard to travel with multiple people and then have no where to park. We could have fit two more cars if necessary!! We will definitely stay here again. – Laura, review left July 2025 under prior management

What a beautiful home on a quiet street close to all of the historic sites. The 5 acres of land was pristine and the creek was so much fun for the kids. They enjoyed both fire pits for s’mores. The one by the creek was for the wood burning and the one the porch was gas, which came in handy during the rain. The kids had their own space and the adults got to relax too. What a blessing. The home is decorated beautifully we felt right at home really. It has everything you would need and the town store Ingles was just up the hill. We just loved it there. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home. – Lavonne, review left July 2024 under prior management

With this being the second time we have stayed here, I will reiterate that this place was gorgeous. A beautiful home tucked away in a quiet and safe area. You can't ask for much more than being only 15 minutes away from skiing and activities, as well as nearby shops. The house was clean when we arrived, check in was a breeze, and the house seemed to be newly renovated with all new fixtures and appliances. 10/10 all around! – Abby, review left February 2024 under prior management

What an absolute gem! We LOVE this place! Everything was new, clean, and beautifully decorated. Completely family friendly….There was a pack n play and high chair and the floors were clean for a crawling baby. There were even a few toys and children’s books. Now THAT is something!!! It’s a beautiful home - even more stunning than the pictures. We made wonderful memories with our family and will absolutely be back! – Jennifer, review left July 2023 under prior management

Beautiful updated home in a quiet area. Our family grew up on this road so it was nice to rent a place near home. The kids enjoyed catching trout in the creek. The home had everything we needed & more. Amazing host, house & location! – Angie, review left April 2023 under prior management

We were hoping for a relaxing, quiet weekend and that’s exactly what we got! Thank you so much for opening your home, we had a wonderful time. The surrounding towns are quaint and cozy. It’s a gorgeous place to be in the fall, and I’m assuming any other time of year as well. If you want a weekend away to unplug but still have access to everything you need, this is the place to be. Absolutely stunning home!! – Brian, review left October 2022 under prior management

To begin with the surrounding area is an experience in itself and once you arrive to the home, it’s like the cherry on top that brings it all together. The home is a perfect blend of wilderness and modern luxury. My wife and I loved the design and feel of it, our family felt so cozy. We have kids (4 and 1 yr old) and they had everything they needed to keep them happy. A few toys, 5 acres of land to explore and a mesmerizing stream across the house that we went to visit every morning. We even got to witness a small herd of deer drinking from it and walking around. It’s the kind of magic I wanted my children to experience. Take full advantage of the tub or the shower in the bathroom and relax. This is a place to slow down and take a deep breath. The host was quick to respond to any questions we had and offered suggestions to what we could do. In the home you can find a detailed binder with activities you can do locally or trails you can take hikes in. If we had more time we would have taken full advantage of that as there is many things to do but we only knew that once the information was placed in front of us. We highly recommend staying here, it’s worth every dollar! – Philip, review left November 2021 under prior management

We had a great weekend celebrating my daughter’s birthday. This house was perfect for what we needed and exceeded our expectations. We even said we would be back. We enjoyed the fireplaces, blackstone, the showers, and the tub! The amenities were much more than we were expecting! The basket of toys was a nice surprise and we enjoyed the sleds for the tiny bit of snow that was there. Thank you for a great weekend! – Courtney, review left February 2022 under prior management

This place looks 1000 times better in person. Great quiet area, not too far from restaurants and or grocery stores. Very spacious to accommodate a family of 5+. The kitchen and the master bedroom is to die for. Please enjoy the tub and the FULLY equipped kitchen. (No need for quick stores runs for making basic meals.) If I continue to go on, I’ll spoil the surprise! Very fast responses as well !! I would definitely stay here again without any hesitation! – D’Era, review left December 2021 under prior management

This is a lovely house and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. It is spacious, clean, and as described on the listing. This is an amazing host - very responsive, warm, and helpful. Check in was a breeze and check out was easy and not onerous. The house is very convenient to lots of hiking spots, there are nearby food options for take-away, and it is very easy to just relax on the couch and do nothing too. Highly recommend! – Yasmeen, review left November 2021 under prior management
