Meet The Host

Hello travelers! We are Christina and Daniel, a middle-age, slightly geeky couple with a passion for history, small Texas towns, travel, good food and better cocktails.

We bought the Mill House on Stillhouse Creek as a passion project, get-away and a place to share with our extended families all over Texas. Gatesville is both off the beaten path and in the middle of so many great Texas spots, we think it is a wonderful home base to travel from as well as a warm and inviting retreat to enjoy.

We can't wait to host you at Mill House. If you have any questions, want to know the best spots on the property, or are curious about the history and lore of the old Winfield Mill, just ask. We'll do our best to make your stay welcoming and comfortable.

Mill House is within walking distance of the Gatesville Town Square, Coryell County Courthouse, the Coryell History Museum, and the Feed Mill Restaurant. We're less than an hour to Waco & Lake Belton, and even closer to the north end of Ft. Hood. Some of our favorite things to do are the Last Drive-in Picture Show in Gatesville, Mother Neff State Park, and the Topsey Exotic Ranch & Drive Thru Safari. If shopping is more your thing, there are wonderful antiques in Hamilton and Crawford nearby.
