About this property

2 Bed, 2 Bath Cozy Home Across from Zoo in the heart of Baraboo.

I found this home on my birthday and knew it was MY home. I happily lived here for 10 years and loved it. Life took me in a different direction but I'm fortunate enough to be able to keep it in my life and thrilled to give you the opportunity to enjoy it. Directly across the street from Ochsner Park and free admission Zoo, enables you to enjoy the animals right from the front porch. Adjacent to Ochsner Park, is Baraboo's 3 mile Riverwalk that is part of the Wisconsin Ice Age Trail. If shopping is on your list, you are 0.5 mile from the downtown square and all it has to offer. 5 miles to Devil's Lake State Park, 12 miles to Wisconsin Dells, 14 miles to Cascade Mountain, 40 miles from Madison. Dane County Regional Airport and Dells Baraboo Airport service the area.

For the safety and security of guests and owner, 1 outdoor camera is placed on the garage to capture the driveway and front and back entrance of the property and 1 camera in utility area.

Nice vacation home

The house was well furnished and had plenty of space for my family to spread out and relax. It had nice amenities, was clean, and was in a good area well away from the tourist traps in Wis Dells while being a short drive to everything we wanted to do.

Great stay!

The property was very clean and well equipped. The A/C worked good. The beds were a little soft for my liking but not everyone likes to sleep on a rock (like my wife would say). Overall a great place to stay. Would stay again.

Feels like home!

This property was just as described! It was perfect for our family of three getaway. We enjoyed the area (zoo across the street) and downtown Baraboo (eateries, antique stores and the circus museum). The weather wasn’t as good as we had hoped, but we still enjoyed our stay very much.

4 night getaway over the 4th of July

The property was perfect and even better than described. We stayed over the 4th of July weekend with our two children and my parents - plenty of space for everyone! The property and home was extremely clean and well maintained. Notes throughout the home were super helpful and informative. Very quiet neighborhood that felt safe and a 15 minute drive to the heart of the Dells. Would highly recommend!

Great experience

We stayed at Park Street Retreat while on a girl's weekend. We were very happy with the house. It was cozy, welcoming and very clean. The accommodations were wonderful. Plenty of comfortable beds and great bathrooms. We especially liked the porch and watching the zoo across the street. Tracy was very helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Great house for our family to stay and visit our extended family in the area. Second time staying with Tracy and the house always brings me back to the lovely home feelings we had when we grew up here. Very clean, convenient and easy to keep cool. We’ll be back again next year.

Park Street Retreat

The house was as listed plus had additional amenities (such as extra towels, linens, toilet paper, paper towels, hand and dish soap) that we haven’t had in other vacation rentals that made it feel like home. We have always had to bring these extras with us. Tracy was an excellent host who was super responsive, as well as went above and beyond to make our stay great! We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Location and Comfy Beds

Best beds of any VRBO I've experienced! Soft and warm beds, cozy living room, table for two, kitchen with all the amenities, great water pressure in the showers, quiet location. My dad and I really enjoyed our stay in this cozy home near the center of Baraboo. We attended the Rogues and Ruffiians Ren Faire at Circus World both Saturday and Sunday. It was only a few minutes away which made it so convenient. We also enjoyed eating out at several local restaurants. Would definitely recommend this cute home for couples and small families.

Visiting the water parks at the Dells

Place was very clean, neat and bright. Location was great as we were only 15 minutes from Mt. Olympus water park. Watching the animals from the swing on the porch was fun in the morning. My only negative was the mattresses were a little soft for me. Will definitely stay there again. Wi-Fi coverage for T-Mobile was poor in general area. Wi-Fi in house was fine.

Zootastic house. Best in Baraboo.

Couldn’t have asked for a better house. Tracy is an amazing host and knows how to open her home up down to the smallest details. Having rented in Baraboo in the past it’s been hit or miss but not with this home. It’s very true to the description and the location was perfect for us and all the family activities we had during our week stay. Personally, I loved the zoo, having grownup in the neighborhood it’s great to wonder over anytime during the day The zoo is in such great shape, you can tell it’s still well loved by the community.

Quiet and Comfortable

We felt right at home in this house. It is very comfortable, beautifully decorated and updated throughout. The beds are comfortable with a good selection of different style pillows. There is great water pressure for the showers. We were a little disappointed there was no access to a clothes washer or dryer as in other VRBO homes we've stayed in. Other than that everything was perfect. The owner is very responsive to any questions we had. Checking in and out was easy. As animals lovers we were able to visit Ochsner's Park almost every day. It's close to everything in Baraboo and a surprisingly short drive to the Dells. Would definitely stay here again

About the host

Hosted by Tracy

Host profile image
My better half has been a lifelong Baraboo resident. While I grew up only 20 minutes away and have always been familiar with Baraboo, I have enjoyed making it my permanent home since 2010. We very much enjoy everything Baraboo and surrounding areas has to offer. My family and I especially enjoy taking advantage of kayaking the Baraboo river. History, outdoors, shopping, scenic sights, breweries, wineries, waterparks.... The Baraboo area really offers it all.

Why they chose this property

Cozy home that is right in the city, walking distance to downtown and numerous attractions and sights.

What makes this property unique

Located directly across the street from Oschners Park and Free Zoo. Animals can be seen and enjoyed from the front porch.
