SAD NEWS!!!
My dear friends and loyal guests of the Johnson mill… it is with a very heavy heart I have to make this announcement. On Oct.15th, 2014, the Johnson Mill will be shutting its doors permanently. I want to personally thank you all for your support and friendship over the past 20 years. It has been a wonderful experience and we value and love all the many friends we have met from all over the world that have come to stay with us. It has been an honor and I thank you all.
The Johnson Mill is an historic landmark, a five story flour mill that shipped flour to Belgium during WW2, provided ice to the local Native American Indians that once populated the area so heavily. The Mill has a very rich history, and has been a special part of the community since the turn of the century. I have tremendous respect for this beautiful piece of property and have dedicated my life to protecting it. Unfortunately, we find ourselves in a situation that has led us to seek other avenues for the survival and preservation of this place we love so dearly. After months of consideration, we have found a group that shares our love and respect for the Mill. I'm not at liberty yet to say who will be the tenants for the next 10 to 15 years, but I will let you know soon.
As for me, I will no longer wear the hat of an Innkeeper / hotel owner. As much as I have enjoyed it over the years, it has proven to be quite an expensive venture! Not only financially, but in time and energy. I will continue making my living as an actor / filmmaker, and look forward to being able to focus much more of my time and efforts in that area, where my true passion lies.
Just wanted to send a note to everyone and say THANK YOU!!! And please.... PLEASE come stay with us some time in the next month.
**(NOT selling. Just leasing it out. I'll get it back in 10 to 15 years. The Johnson Mill SHALL return!!!)
