Mill Haus - Heated Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly, Downtown

Live within history in the Mill Haus, located in historical Locust Street District of Downtown Washington, Missouri.

The Mill Haus is a part of the exclusive collection of Missouri Haus vacation rental homes. Bring your mom and sisters for a wine country getaway, ride the Katy Trail, or celebrate a wedding at one of the nearby wedding venues. The Mill Haus is in the heart of WashMo and Missouri wine country and less than an hour from St. Louis.

On the National Register of Historic Places as a part of the Locust Street Historical District, the renovated 1920 historical home is fully updated with modern amenities. With 4 bedrooms and 2-1/2 bathrooms, it sleeps a total of 10.

Over a century old, the fireplaces (nonworking), doors, woodwork, and hardwood floors have been refurbished, adding a beautiful charm to this brick home.

The Mill Haus is dog friendly for pre-approved dogs only.

Located next door to the Beekeeper's Cottage, the two houses share the backyard, hot tub, and heated swimming pool. For exclusive private use of the hot tub, heated swimming pool, and backyard, please book both houses together, the listing named the Bees Knees.

MAIN LEVEL

The living area on the main level is an open floor plan stretching the entire side of the house, showcasing the old fireplace and hardwood floors. It has a sofa sleeper in front of the large TV.

Across the hall is the formal dining room that seats 8 and has a nonworking fireplace.

The dining area seats 6 people, with additional seating in the kitchen and on the screened back porch.

The beautifully detailed full kitchen has everything you need to make your own meals, including modern appliances, place settings, pots and pans, wine glasses, and a regular coffee maker.

Bonus quirk is a hall turned into a pantry/bar area with an ice machine. Then a half bath located between the kitchen and the parlor room.

SECOND LEVEL

Up a flight of century old stairs (take either the grand front staircase or the kitchen staircase), the second level has three bedrooms and both of the full bathrooms.

Bedroom 1 has a king size bed with crisp white linens, a nonworking fireplace accent, and an en suite bathroom with an amazing dressing room with delicious natural light.

Bedroom 2 has a king size bed with en suite full bathroom, and Bedroom 3 has a queen size bed.

THIRD LEVEL

Take another flight of narrow steps to the top floor for the finished third level and Bedroom 4. This bedroom has two (2) queen beds.

LAUNDRY and HALF BATH

The set of front loading washer and dryer is located between the bedrooms on the second level.

BACKYARD, SWIMMING POOL, HOT TUB

The fenced backyard is a treat with the shared hot tub and swimming pool of the Beekeeper's Cottage next door. Note that the fence encloses the backyard for both the Beekeeper's Cottage and the Mill Haus, and there is no fence separating the yards nor an additional inside fence around the swimming pool.

*Pool is open May through mid October weather permitting -- and it is heated!
**Hot tub is open year round!

Dogs are welcome in the yard, but not in the hot tub or swimming pool.

Mill Haus also has access to a charcoal grill (charcoal not provided), patio table, and fire pit (firewood not provided).

GAME ROOM ABOVE GARAGE

The game room above the garage is not included in the listed rate but is available for an additional charge of $50 per night plus a $35 cleaning fee. The rate is times the number of nights of your stay even if you use it for only one night.

The game room can be added to your stay and is available to both the Beekeeper's Cottage and the Mill Haus on a first-come-first-serve basis. It will not be shared, but the 1/2 bath in the garage is available to all guests using the swimming pool.

EXCLUSIVE USE OF THE POOL, HOT TUB, GAME ROOM, and BACKYARD

Exclusive use of the hot tub, swimming pool, game room, and backyard is only available when you book both the Beekeeper's Cottage and the Mill Haus together -- the houses together are referred to as the Bees Knees.
