Bear Den- Waco/Baylor/Magnolia

This is one BEAR DEN you won’t mind visiting. Come enjoy this cozy and comforting space after an exciting day exploring Waco’s Bear Country.

Location is everything! We are just about one a mile to Baylor University. Three blocks to Magnolia. Six blocks to the new sport complex (Foster Pavillion). 1.5 miles from McLane Stadium which some of our guest that stay in this building walk to the games. We are also next door to Fable Bookstore and Cafe. Fable and the Behrens Lofts are actually a conjoining building.

Our condo is located on South Fourth Street & Mary St in downtown Waco, Texas. The Behrens Lofts now occupies what was once known as the Behrens Drug Company building. The structure was completed in 1913, and was headquarters for the Behrens Drug Company. The building was constructed as a fire-proof, concrete structure with emphasis on ample working space and employee safety. As testament to its significance in Waco history, Behrens survived the 1953 Waco tornado with little damage. In 1990 the fifth, sixth and seventh floors were added as the building was converted to loft living spaces.

Guest will have access to the entire condo except for one locked closet.

Long term stays are welcome.

Eclipse Stay
We came to Waco for the eclipse. This home was perfect for the three of us to stay in Waco. You only climb one flight of stair from the entrance to the living area. I would not hesitate to stay again.

Fun loft, but…
The loft is in a great location for Baylor festivities, clean, cool, etc….but, when anyone in the building runs their water or flushes the toilet it runs through a pipe in the middle of the loft at a volume that scares you awake every 25 minutes. It literally sounds like someone threw a glass bottle on the wall and then water running for 45 seconds….over and over. The walls are thin enough to hear all the neighbors music and conversations. The building and loft are amazing, it’s just impossible to get a solid night’s sleep.

Good nase camp for a weekend in Waco for Baylor football.
The loft was clean and is good for two people. Great location and very clean property. Nice to have a parking spot,but the lot was full of large vehicles which made getting out difficult at times. There are not many windows so overall natural light is limited and the ceilings are pretty low.
