About Us
The Mill House at Richland Creek offers a unique location for your special occasion. Nestled in the woods next to Richland Creek in Randolph County, the home has all the conveniences of modern living while retaining the charm and historic feel of a 19th century structure. Materials from the original Moffitt Mill were used in the construction of the house.
Although the foundation and structure of the house was laid in the 1970's, the old mill provided the wooden beams that now support the living room and dining room. The fireplace was created from river rocks. These same river rocks were pulled from the creek by slaves to build the dam. The dam is still viewable on the right when you pull into the driveway. The wood flooring in the home once bore the traffic of farmers bringing their grain to be ground on the millstone. The paneling in the family room and breakfast nook was worn smooth by the grain as it passed through the mill shoot. The slate that lines the walkway to the front door, the floor in the family room, and kitchen also came from the mill. Mill doors were used throughout the home and much of the original hardware was used in the re-construction process.The corn flour produced by the mill was "Moffit-made". It was packaged in bags with a young woman's picture and ears of corn on it. We still have the bags in the home.
