The town of Mills River was incorporated in 2003, but it has been known unofficially as Mills River for more than 200 years. As a matter of fact, some of the land in the town has been owned by the same families since the 1700s.
With spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Mills River is a terrific place to search for apartments and townhouses for rent. It's an up-and-coming area that is close to the hip, mid-size city of Asheville, yet it is still rural enough to be considered country living. See more
Finding an apartment in Mills River that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.
While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.
If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
