We just got married and held our reception in the Lakeview room and spent two nights in a cozy room at Spring Mill Inn. The service was wonderful, and all of the staff was over-the-top hospitable! Our children even asked if we can come back for a trip when it warms up they loved it so much; especially the game room and pool, of course. The restaurant is pretty good, great waitstaff.
We can't wait to go back for a weekend when we are not so crazy busy :)

I visit the Spring Mill Inn in Spring Mill State Park every year and have done so for many years. I enjoy Indiana's state park inns, but they are not for everyone. Since they are located within state parks, there is an entry fee (charged once) during the spring/summer/fall season. The inns are not located on main roads. Most are older buildings with interesting histories. They are not sterile and modern, but I have always found the Spring Mill Inn to be clean and comfortable. There are TV's in the rooms, wireless internet service, and service on my Verizon cellphone. The inn swimming pool is an interesting indoor/outdoor pool. The indoor part is available year round. Obtain pool towels at the front desk instead of in the pool area. There is also a pool in the park which is open during the summer season, a nature center, and trails. There is an 1800's recreated village which includes a mill on the creek which runs through it. An additional attraction is a museum which commorates astronaut Gus Grissom, who was a native of the nearby town of Mitchell. I have always enjoyed the food in the inn dining room.

The Spring Mill Inn located in Spring Mill State Park is great value for a family vacation. not fancy, but with a rustic charm, the hotel has modern conveniences: cable TV, wireless service, an indoor-outdoor pool, clean rooms in a wooded setting. The restaurant in the hotel serves hearty traditional Midwestern farm fare either from a menu or buffet style. This is comfort food, not health food, but it is delicious, priced well considing the amount of food. You can even Taste the local delicacy, persimmon pudding or pie. The staff is very helpful. The recreated settler village from the early 1800's is an added attractin.

I have always given the Spring Mill Inn an excellent review. But this time there were a few problems. The main problem was with a man on staff at the front desk. He was kind of rude and had very little knowledge about anything. And I heard other staff members just telling people to call another number for any questions. This one man one time was using the GUEST computer. I am not sure if he was working or what. The staff has always been amazing here. But this time the staff at the front desk all seemed a bit indifferent. The lobby is till amazing...rooms are still nice....food in restaurant was still good. The pool looked nicer...maybe has a new lining. But this was not our best stay here...because of the front desk staff. We were annoyed with the TONS of spiders outside our window. I know this room was on an upper floor and is in a state park. But there were literally tons of spiders at night right outside our window. AND I do think it is about time that the Indiana State Park Inns ALL started putting coffee machines in the rooms. And the fitted sheet on one bed was so worn that it would not stay tucked in...and I hate it when that happens. We actually went in to town to DOLLAR GENERAL and bought a sheet to put OVER the bed.
