Judge Baylor House Bed & Breakfast
Judge R.E.B. Baylor was the founder of Baylor University which was chartered by the Republic of Texas in 1845.
The Judge Baylor House at 908 Speight Ave. is located adjacent to the campus and is a three-minute drive to downtown Waco and the Waco Convention Center.
Our two-story red brick home has four bedrooms and the Judge Baylor suite, all with private baths and either king, queen-size or twin beds. Each room is spacious and beautifully appointed.
The rooms have been remodeled and arranged to afford maximum privacy with no two rooms sharing adjacent walls.
In addition to central heat and air, each room has a ceiling fan for your added comfort.
With only five rooms, we, the owners and innkeepers, Bruce and Dorothy Dyer, are able to provide quality personal time to our guests.
Since our living quarters are also located on the grounds of the Judge Baylor House, we are available whenever needed.
Our two-story red brick home has four bedrooms and the Judge Baylor suite, all with private baths and either king, queen-size or twin beds. Each room is spacious and beautifully appointed.
The four bedrooms are named for our children, Alan, Aaron, Anne, and Amy. Identifying each room beside the door is a framed chalk profile drawing made on a trip to Disneyland in 1964.
A full breakfast is served beginning at 8:00 a.m. weekdays and 8:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Earlier breakfasts may be arranged on request. Conversation around our dining room table can be exhilarating, or you may dine at a table for two.
