About

Step into timeless elegance with a stay in the Captain Potter’s Suite, the premier accommodation at Potter’s Mill — an 1840s gristmill turned boutique inn by Riverview Vacations. Located below the bluffs of the Bellevue State Park, this distinguished suite honors the mill’s founder, Captain E.G. Potter, blending historic charm with refined comfort.

Good to know

Set on the third level of the mill, the Captain Potter’s Suite offers sweeping views of the Mississippi River and the surrounding blufflands. Inside, you’ll find high ceilings, original wood beams, and curated vintage décor that reflect the rich legacy of the mill. A stately King-sized bed, spacious sitting area, and private en-suite bath with a jacuzzi tub provide a luxurious setting for your stay. Whether you’re watching eagles soar over the river, exploring nearby Bellevue State Park, or simply relaxing in your private retreat, the Captain Potter’s Suite offers a one-of-a-kind experience steeped in history and natural beauty. Perfect for romantic getaways, special occasions, or anyone who appreciates the stories behind the walls — this suite is more than a place to stay. It’s a piece of Iowa’s living history.

Dan’s communication was very good and gave good instructions. The view was really beautiful. This place was not a typical hotel room. It was spacious and used the mill’s ambiance to make it feel special.

This was our second stay. The first time we stayed in one of their tiny houses. Great hosts! Potters Mill has so much character! We will be back when we can stay longer.
