Robert and Griffin Mill is such a peaceful, clean, and spacious place to stay just 20 minutes from Auburn. It’s our second year back and we all agreed the creek views, all the extra space, and how quiet and picturesque the location is we will be back again! You won’t be disappointed in this Vrbo it’s a special one.

Really perfect- great location, beautiful piece of land. The addition of a toaster and more dishwasher tabs (there was only one) would add to this. But we had a really great time!

Beautiful spot in the Alabama countryside. Great view of the bustling creek from the deck. Easy check-in / check-out and the cabin was equipped with everything we needed. Robert, the host, was very prompt answering our questions and extremely accommodating with our requests. We could not have had a better experience.

Wonderful
We booked all three of thesee cabins for our family to stay for our sons wedding to be close to the venue. The cabins were perfect to give us all the individual space with the pavillon to gather together. Robert was so nice and accommmodating to make our stay even more enjoyable. The views of the property were so peaceful and beautiful. I would highly reccomend this property.

River Cottage Oasis
The property is fabulous. The location and patio over the river is so peaceful. The owner/manager was so responsive when we needed a kitchen item that must have walked off from a previous guest. It was truly a wonderful stay on our way to Auburn. I did trip on the deck walkway as there is an unmarked step down. While my knees got banged up, I simply reported to the owner and suggested that he protect himself from future liability and to identify the transition in some manner. He was quite receptive and gracious; making sure I was okay. The world is much too litigious and I am confident he will address for future customers to thoroughly enjoy! I still give it

Great place!
We loved our stay at the Griffen Mill cabin. Robert was an awesome host and answered all of my many questions in a timely manner. There were only two of us staying in the cabin so it was just right for what we needed at a far more affordable price than something closer to Auburn. It still smelled of new wood and was an easy drive from Jordan-Hare and back to Tiger Town the next day. We used the pavilion to host our daughter and some of her friends after the Auburn football game. It was perfect for grilling burgers and having everyone sit out to enjoy the weather. We arrived at near dark, but after seeing the site the next morning I am intrigued about the history of what once stood on the property. We will definitely plan to stay again in the time before she graduates!
