Mills House Review
A favorite local landmark, from which several historic tours depart, the Mills House is the reconstruction of an 1853 hotel where Robert E. Lee once waved from the wrought-iron balcony. All guest rooms have been completely refurbished and have antique reproductions in a Charleston style with Asian accents. There are some additions to the original design, such as a fitness center and a delightful pool and deck. Lowcountry specialties are served in the Barbados Room, which opens onto the terrace courtyard with its lovely floral mosaic by famed Southern landscape architect Loutrell Briggs.
