Our stay at the beautifully renovated historic Waseca Mill was perfect! Close to everything and also located right on a greenway across from gorgeous Loon Lake!
We stayed at the Brick & Vine for a week when we moved to Waseca while we were waiting for our closing, and for belongings to be delivered, and it was truly wonderful! Can't wait to see the property when everything is in bloom.We had a trailer with us and there was plenty of room to turn around and park on the concrete pad, and the seclusion was nice as your vehicle(s) are mostly hidden from the road.Arrival and entry was simple, the property was immediately comfortable and cozy. The updated kitchen and included washer/dryer were beyond amazing to have for the entire week while moving from out of state.The rooms were nice and the beds were comfortable, though were definitely a little warmer when the heat was on; be sure to bump the thermostat down a few degrees when you head to bed if you don't like to sleep hot. Modern TVs in each room, which we logged in to and installed the apps we use.Our 3.5yo enjoyed the stay as well as there was plenty of room, and the States puzzle was a big hit!The only downside was the water pressure. The shower was decent, and my wife said it was enough to wash her hair, but if the washing machine or dishwasher is running, the pressure is reduced drastically. Even after flushing the toilet the drop in pressure while washing your hands is quite noticeable while the tank refills. Also, the water in the kitchen took a minute or longer to get hot in the winter, but the temperature was certainly not an issue once it got hot.Thank you!
Weâve stayed at this property before, and itâs always very clean, well stocked, and we are always very comfortable. The owner Mike is great to work with and responds to any questions immediately. Holiday travels can be exhausting and itâs so nice to have this property as our Oasis when visiting MN.
Very well thought out living area in an old grain exchange. Very clean and quiet. Walk out to a small lake. Very easy and helpful host that made sure everything was correct.
Unique!!
Very nice 2-bedroom unit housed in an old brick mill.
Very quiet.
Very clean and well kept.
Everything is as shown on the website.
Neat town with a paved hiking trail right next to the property.
Loon Lake next to property with larger Clear Lake about a mile away with hiking trails around both.
Several great restaurants nearby.
Will definitely stay here again when in the area.
Loved it!!! Nice having trail at lake for morning walks. Lots of space with full kitchen. Spacious separate bedrooms with washer and dryer a plus. It was clean and inviting. Walking distance to great shops in downtown. The owners were so nice, friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend others to stay as well. Thanks Mike!
We come to town every year for a memorial event for my fallen friend and brother-in-arms, and this secluded and calm location was an ideal spot to unwind and decompress from the highs and lows of such an event. A serene and comfortable spot for any small family.
We needed something that was halfway between Owatonna and Mankato, and could work for a family with two busy boys. This fit the bill perfectly. Other than the Keurig machine not working (which was easily fixed by visiting a local cafe), the stay was great. We didnât communicate with the hosts until our trip was over about the coffee machine, but they responded in a timely fashion. My only complaints are that several of the dishes in the kitchen were dirty (easy fix thanks to the dishwasher), there were no ice trays provided, and the lake right across the bike path had algae that made it unsafe to use (out of the hostsâ control).
It worked out very well for us. If I had not seen pictures of the property, I never would recognize it as a place to stay. No signs or any indicators of what it was. Not the normal look of an apartment on the outside but very nice and comfortable on the inside. So, yea, very close to things downtown and even across town. We walked to the Fair grounds for the Farmers Market and school garage sale. Then we walked out to Clear Lake and made a lap all around it and back to the apartment. Owner or someone provided outstanding weather, lots of sun, mild temperatures and no rain. We will be going back
A great place to escape after a day of helping family cleanup after the floods in Waterville.
Located across the street from Ace Hardware and great boutique shops as a diversion. Try Lush cakes for coffee
We enjoyed our stay in Waseca. Cool unique property. Nice accomodations with full kitchen. Cute quiet town with many things to do near by in town (and within hour drive). Would definitely recommend local Mexican đź restaurant El Molino on the main street. Beautiful lakes and walking trails. Would stay again. đ
While historial on the outside, the interior was stunningly decorated. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was equipped with beautiful dishes and everything we needed for cooking, We enjoyed the downtown shops, which were within walking distance.
Nice walking trail right out the front door.
My family and I enjoyed the time away from the twin cities in a beautiful and quiet get away.
Thank you to the owners for sharing their place with us.
After traveling 10 hours and visiting multiple family members from Iowa to MN, we arrived at the property. My husband flipped on the TV flopped down on the sofa and said, âThis is way better than a hotel!â
The property owner Mike is always great to work with, the cleanliness of the property is always spotless. The kitchen is stocked with all the utensil's needed for holiday cooking. The location is beautiful, and unique.
We will definitely be back!
This is our second time staying here this year. Once again, we enjoyed our stay. Our host was very responsive. Itâs easy to immediately feel right at home!
Very spacious and well-equipped rental. As a couple, never used the spare bedroom. Especially liked the location. So close to downtown but very
private. Picturesque setting on SE edge of Loon Lake. Paved trail next to rental was perfect for walking our dog.. Thanks to Mark Denn for taking the time to get us on track with the smart TVs
