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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Fun in Baraboo

House was perfect for our group of 2 couples! Super clean, well-appointed with everthing you could think of, patio was perfect for happy hour, and the front porch swing was the best! Enjoyed the free zoo directly across the street. Great location for exploring and sightseeing.

A charming, cozy home in great condition. The home was much larger then we thought it would be. It was better then advertised.. An ideal location right across the street from the little zoo. We heard a few strange sounds then realized it was the Sand Hill cranes. I loved sitting on the porch listening to the birds.

This is a lovely home in a quiet neighborhood. There is a small zoo and park across the street. This home is close to great restaurants and a short drive to the Wisconsin Dells. Check-in was very easy. The home is very neat and tidy. The front porch is comfortable, inviting, and relaxing. It’s nice to observe some of the zoo animals right from the porch swing.

We enjoyed our stay at the Park Street Retreat! It was a great location for us to visit the surrounding areas. The house was very nice, had a lot to offer and was comfortable for our family. We’d stay here again if we were ever in the area!

Summer Getaway

The house was as advertised and the property manager was very attentive to any needs and communicated well with us as needed. Very clean, comfortable and within 15-20 minutes or less from food, entertainment and the State Parks!! Baraboo has a lot to offer for such a small community. A great week to recharge, relax and enjoy all the activities. Thank You!

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.

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.
