[ the mill ] is a co-working community in the heart of San Clemente for creatives, founders, designers, photographers, freelancers, writers, and anyone who values connection as much as focus.

A community that shows up
Our calendar is built around bringing people together: founders’ breakfasts, skill shares, art nights, talks, and supper clubs. We partner with local San Clemente businesses and create room for people and ideas to grow side by side.
Space for your wellbeing
Yoga, breathwork, and fitness sessions are woven into the rhythm of the week, so you can support your work and your wellbeing in the same place.
A better kind of business
We give 3% of our revenue back to people, projects, and causes that serve our local community. When The Mill grows, San Clemente grows with it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an incredible gem in San Clemente! [ the mill ] is so much more than a coworking space. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed. Karli was absolutely wonderful..so gracious, warm, and inviting! Everything about this space just *feels good*. The energy, the atmosphere, the art, and the thoughtful details create such an inspiring environment. It’s the perfect balance of productivity and connection..a place where you can settle in, get meaningful work done, and still feel part of something rather than working alone. As someone navigating the world of hybrid work, I can’t say enough about how refreshing it is to find a space that brings together creativity, community, and genuine hospitality. [ the mill ] has created something really special here. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to work, connect, and feel inspired.
We love hosting our weekly Executive Edge Toastmasters meetings at The Mill in San Clemente. The space is modern, beautifully designed, quiet, and creates the perfect environment for learning and professional development. It has everything we need to run engaging meetings, and our members always comment on how welcoming and comfortable it feels. If you’re looking for a fantastic coworking or meeting space, I highly recommend The Mill!
