We had a great family weekend getaway on Briggs Lake! The house was spacious and well stocked for our group's needs. Check-in went smoothly and there was plenty of room in the driveway for several vehicles, including our truck with pontoon trailer. Having a large dock with boat bumpers ready for us was a huge plus to be able to bring our pontoon to explore the lake! The kitchen had everything we needed and there were plenty of towels. We enjoyed relaxing on the large lakeside deck and eating meals in the shade of the big oak tree. Dena was a responsive and accommodating host - she was friendly, provided great information about the lake, and ensured we were able to enjoy our weekend to the fullest! Thanks for a great stay!

Our stay was absolutely amazing! This house made my friend’s birthday weekend so special, and everyone had an incredible time with friends and family.The home was beautiful, cozy, and had plenty of space for our group to relax and enjoy ourselves. What really stood out was how thoughtfully stocked everything was. I’ve never stayed at an Vrbo that provided so many extras—there were plenty of towels, extra forks, plates, cookware, and everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home.The host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, and it made such a difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, welcoming, and well-equipped place to stay!

We had an amazing stay at Briggs Lake Retreat House! Dena was an excellent host and truly went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable. She was incredibly communicative both before and throughout our stay, always making sure we had everything we needed and that everything was perfect.The kitchen was fantastic and stocked with everything we could possibly need to prepare meals, including high-quality kitchen items that made cooking for our group a breeze. The large, open floor plan connecting the dining and living areas was perfect for our group and gave us plenty of space to relax, visit, and enjoy time together.We also loved the lake access! The dock had plenty of room to park our boat and provided a great spot to hang out, relax, and try our luck fishing. It was exactly the kind of setting we were hoping for during our friends’ getaway.We would absolutely recommend Briggs Lake Retreat House to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable lake getaway. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!

Great girl's weekend stay; will definitely book again. Dena is really nice to work with, very kind & responsive.This property had a lot to offer our larger group of 8. It's an easy drive from the Twin Cities & centrally located for drives from other parts of MN, WI & the Dakotas. Lots of restaurants & things to do in the area. Plenty of room to spread out in the house & also nice cozy areas to gather in. The house (kitchen & bathrooms) was well-stocked. Lots of beds & having a 3rd bath & a bath on each floor, is a plus for a larger group. We really appreciated that the house has a large dining room table that allowed us all to sit together at the same table. In the past, with other rentals, even though they may sleep larger groups, they didn't have a large table & weren't all able to sit together. The grounds are nice! The house sits on a larger, deep lot with lots of large trees for shade. There's a longer U-shaped driveway that's easy to negotiate & park several cars. While we didn't get a chance to use the new fire pit, it was inviting w lake views & would accommodate a large group. We spent a lot of time on the deck. Great lake breezes & views from the deck & somewhere for everyone in the group to sit. Nice dock. Large enough to actually sit & hangout on it. One in the group caught and released a couple large fish from the dock (nearly 2 ft bass). We found the setting quiet & peaceful.Thanks for the wonderful stay. We can't wait to return next year!

Thank you so much for the incredible review! It was an absolute pleasure hosting your group for your girls' weekend. I specifically chose that large dining table so big groups could share meals and make memories together, so hearing that it made a difference for you truly makes my day! It also sounds like you made the most of the deck and the dock—and congrats to whoever caught that massive bass! You all were wonderful guests and we're excited to host you all again!

This was a great VRBO! Everything was just as listed. Host was super responsive and helpful when needed. Lake was easy to access with a rented boat. The General store nearby had so much plus yummy ice cream! Location was great. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could need! Comfy beds/ furniture to hangout! We would absolutely visit again!
