Holbrook Retreat - 5 bedroom on 47 acres

This is the nicest property that I have ever stayed at, and it was so incredibly peaceful for me and my family! It’s an amazing place to connect, relax, explore and the perfect amount of distance from the twin cities.

Host responded quickly with any needs (shovel, driveway plowing)

Beautiful property, wifi is off and on, kitchen cooktop stove was iffy, bath towels were sparse and small. But overall was great. We did have to kill alot of asian beetles!!

The setting and grounds were lovely as was the house itself. There is nice separation between social areas upstairs and sleeping areas downstairs. The support staff responded to a request to check a smoke alarm within minutes and returned with supplies we mentioned were in short supply. Already planning our next visit.

We had an awesome time at this beautiful property. The swimming was not the best but had a great time with the kayaks and lilypod.

House beautiful, dishes were dirty and could NOT swim cause of weeds very disappointed and would not book sgain

Absoultely beautiful place and location! Plenty of room for the family to spread out and have their own space and then all come together for meals and just hanging together. Even the 1yr old grandkid did well! Any communication we needed with the host received a prompt replied to and the one issue was immediately remedied.Definitely plan to come back for another family get together in the future!

Amazing! Main floor has a beautiful kitchen, step down living space, extra large dining room table, and 1/2 bathroom. Basement houses:-King master bedroom with two walk-in closets, washer and dryer and a large shower. -Small sitting area outside of master bedroom with a tv and piano! -Hallway leads to two bedrooms with 2-twin beds in each room with large closets!-Additional living space contains a couple of sitting areas as well as three steps leading up to a bedroom with four twin beds as well as a full bathroom and sauna room. Seamlessly connected to the above living space the owners attached another previously built cabin with includes another smaller kitchen, a full bathroom with another washer & dryer set as well as a sitting area and a bedroom that has two twin beds. Lowest level of the house has a workout room-we did not use A quick 15 minute drive and you can be in DL for needed groceries, etc. Pro tip: If master bedroom gets warm at night, close door to the bathroom and leave the door to the sitting area open! Many areas to walk around and we saw four deer wandering around the property every day. Highly recommended for groups or families with adult children! Thank you for the memories made. Everyone enjoyed their time and verbalized they would love to return again!

We had a lovely weekend as a family. We enjoyed the beautiful spacious home, the peaceful sunsets, full moon and hiking trails. We love the ministry that this home provides to our veterans and their families. Some things that would have made our stay even more relaxing would have been a hall tree to hang our coats in place of the grandfather clock by the door, having the lightswitches labeled so that we didn't have to try them all to figure out which one was for which lights, and having the kitchen more organized. We also needed to have a maintenance person come and repair a leak coming from the refridgerator and fix the furnace. The first night we were without heat in the older part of the house. I share these things only to help make this already beautiful and peaceful spot even more relaxing.

Winter family gathering perfection! Large kitchen, dining, living area for cooking together, eating as a family, watching sports, and playing games. Bedrooms are on lower level so teenage / college student napping was never disturbed. Beautiful walking trails through property. Very clean. Every family member loved our stay here!
