Last week, we attended the Summer Swizzle event by Andrea Serrano and checked out the Mills House pool and brand-new rooftop bar. Y’all, it was stunning, and we have to tell you all about it.

The pool is situated on the rooftop to allow for views of downtown and Meeting Street. Even though the pool is reserved for hotel guests, locals can book to reserve a cabana for the day and enjoy the space for a swim. Talk about an ideal staycation.

The Terrace Bar is situated next to the pool and invites guests and locals alike to sip on refreshing summer cocktails. It is a romantic spot to grab a drink or appetizer before a downtown dinner date.

The pool bar is open Thursday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Race you there for a cocktail.
