Ringling House Bed & Breakfast

This historic home did not disappoint! Beautiful woodwork, stained glass windows, and nicely appointed rooms. The hosts were gracious and made us feel welcome in their beautiful home. The grounds were very pretty too! The breakfast was delicious and served on the dining room table that Mr. Ringling and family used.

I would highly recommend this historical B & B. It has been lovingly maintained by private ownership and updated to accomadate my needs. The location is perfect for easy access to Baraboo, Devils Lake, the Wisconsin Dells.... I will definitely stay again.

Beautifully restored historic home, wonderful hosts, excellent breakfast, great location within easy walking distance of historic sites, good restaurants and shopping. Lovely front porch for resting and reading in good weather. Comfortable common rooms, including library and music room.

My husband and I enjoyed a 2-night stay as part of a little getaway. The house provides plenty of space for relaxing, both inside and out. We especially enjoyed chatting with the other guests at breakfast. The staff gave us several suggestions for restaurants, attractions, and hiking trails.

This was our second visit to the Ringling House B&B. We needed a getaway, we've been through so much lately. Lost an adult child in November and had our 5 y.o. granddaughter diagnosed with leukemia in Jan. We stayed in Charles & Edith and it is such a cozy and calming setting. Julie & Stu are great hosts. There was major road work going on in Baraboo so it could get a little noisy at times, but we still had a lovely time.

A night at Ringling House B&B was a lovely way to ease into a holiday. Julie and Stuart are welcoming and friendly. The bedooms were comfortable, with very nice bathrooms for a home built in 1901. The ability to explore the rest of the house on our own was like traveling back in time. Julie offered great advice for dinner options, and served a nice breakfast the next morning.

Disappointed. While the history is fascinating, the accommodations were quite sad. This place is in dire need of TLC. It was not clean and looked and smelled tired. It's the small things, the details that can make a B&B special, but the attempts came off as woefully lazy and cheap. The breakfast was unappetizing and again...a sad effort. We won't be returning nor will we recommend.

The Ringling House Bed and Breakfast surpassed our expectations in the most delightful ways! My two besties and I arrived on a Friday evening to a quiet and personalized welcome: complimentary wine and cheese as well as time to take in the historical grandeur of a Ringling residence. We chose adjoining rooms so that we could combine amenities but that was not necessary. Each room is unique and offers privacy and all that one might desire. Our rooms were clean, charming, and came with some welcoming extras. It is such a gift to sleep in, walk downstairs, and enjoy a delicious, homemade breakfast in a beautiful space. This is one of the PERKS of staying in a B & B versus other "on your own" short term stays. I am an early riser, so I enjoyed the additional luxury of walking around to view some historical items while listening to "old-timey" music. Our trio also benefitted from lounging with the owners, who shared stories and recommendations for our time in town. We were visiting in a non-touristy (cold) season, yet Baraboo did not disappoint! The museums had opened and the downtown shops and bars were thriving. Plus, no competing crowds. Don't hesitate to make Baraboo, Wisconsin a long weekend getaway any time of year. There is much history and hosting that will greet you. Our thanks to Julie and Stuart for revitalizing this marvelous bed and breakfast and for attending to all the important and pampering details. It will go down in our traveling history as one of our Greatest Stays on Earth!

This was our 3rd stay . Once again was a great stay. They had a Valentines Dinner that was outstanding Julie and Stuart are wonderful hosts. Every time we come back we learn something new about the history of the house and people that once lived there. We are ready for stay number 4.
