I love spring at The Mill House and in our lovely canal town of Grand Rapids. At the first sign of warm weather and sunshine the town just comes alive. Grandparents and grandchildren strolling down the tow path next to the canal with an ice cream cone. Adults and children alike on their bicycles. Parents with strollers and dogs on leashes. A vibrancy only seen at the first sign of spring.

Last weekend was the first official event in Grand Rapids for 2016. The “Run for the Rapids” 5K and Walk for ALS. The Grand Rapids Arts Council has been sponsoring this event for the last several years. Each year brings more runners and walkers of all ages and The Mill House has a front row seat.

You don’t have to be a 5K runner or a powerwalker to enjoy walking, running, or pedaling in Grand Rapids.  We are just a few minutes from Providence Metropark, which is just across the river, where you can use a tow path that takes you from Grand Rapids to Waterville.  The 10 mile towpath has scenic places to stop,  public restrooms along the route, and you can enjoy lunch in Waterville before pedaling back.

The Wabash Canonball Trail is within a few minute drive.  This old railroad track turned paved path winds from Waterville to Whitehouse, and then through Oak Openings Metro Park.

Come visit us this summer. Bring your walking shoes, bicycle, or even your kayak and enjoy the lovely Maumee River with all of it’s scenery and wildlife.  We’d love to have you and we even have a covered place to store you bicycles.

Testimonials

The wife and I stayed here for our one year anniversary and had a great time. The owners are so nice and caring. It is a quiet and romantic place to stay, with great views and quaint historic rooms with a lot of character. We will definitely be back again!

We visited the Mill House for our second time in the Grand Rapids area. Ron and Kathy even made sure to have the local bald eagle put in an appearance on one of our river walks. Clean spacious room, pleasant company and bacon scones. A slice of heaven in NW Ohio.

One of the best overnight stays we have ever taken. First, you are greeted with warmth and kindness. The Mill House is a true getaway from the rush and stresses of life. The rooms are all very inviting and a place of refuge. The snacks are best around and the breakfast felt like home with relatives. Will recommend this place to everyone and returning very soon!
