    Burgen Lake Rest Area - The vending machine with snacks is inside the building.

    Burgen Lake Rest Area

    Burgen Lake Rest Area is located on I-94 heading northbound. Alexandria is north of this rest stop…read more It's basically midway between Fargo and the Twin Cities. I decided to take a break as I made my way to Winnipeg. I had no problem pulling into a parking spot. I used the women's washroom. There was a strong bleach smell. This rest stop is maintained extremely well. I liked learning about the Red River ox cart trails. It's nice when you can do a self-guided tour while you take a breather from driving. This rest area was a bit quirky when it came to the vending machines. If you are looking for a snack, the vending machine is inside the building. If you feel like a cold drink, it's located outside. I'm wondering if this outdoor machine works when it's freezing outside during a normal winter day. This year hasn't been normal weather-wise, so this beverage machine seemed to be okay when I was there. If you have a pet, there is an area for pets to stretch and play. It was a colder day when I was here. The trees and snow made this outdoor area picturesque. I'm sure that it's gorgeous during the summer. There was a picnic area that would be perfect to relax and enjoy lunch outside. I like that Minnesota rest stops invite you to submit feedback. The state has decent, nicely maintained rest stops. It was great stopping here on a sunny Sunday. (97)

    Very useful rest area on I-94 westbound between Minneapolis and Fargo where I stopped to use the…read morerestroom, stretch my legs and when my phone rang, I ended up spending over an hour here on a work call and Zoom meeting. The rest area has a long sweeping turn which is something I appreciate as it truly helps to slow down the cars as they come off the highway at 75 mph. There is a "front" truck parking area and the car parking in the back is accessible for trucks as well. So keep an eye out for larger vehicles coming through and give them plenty of space. Lots of greenery around, benches, picnic shelters and enough room to enjoy some peace before getting back on the road. [Review 20749 overall - 160 in Minnesota - 1731 of 2023.]

    Pleasantly surprised!…read more For a Best Western this was a very nice experience. The last BW we stayed in was in Illinois and it was unexplainably humid inside with a terrible moldy smell so I didn't have high expectations, but this one was very comfortable. Our room was clean and bright, the air was cool and dry, no smell, huge TV, abundance of towels, across the street from a gas station, Target, a few restaurants so the location was convenient... My favorite thing was the complimentary breakfast! There was actually quite a large variety of food and beverage options, and I cannot rave enough about the woman working in there. She was constantly in and out clearing dishes, keeping the food stocked and covered, wiping up every little crumb, and making conversation with the visitors, and asking if there was anything we needed that wasn't already out, etc. she was so friendly and helpful! I don't know if/when I'll ever be in Fergus Falls again but if I am, I'd come back here. My only complaint is that of all the cable channels, somehow Food Network was missing? But we settled for HGTV.

    Pleasantly surprised by this place in Fergus Falls. We were in town to see family & while this…read moreCountry Inn & Suites is clearly older, the rooms were clean, and generously sized. We didn't try the pool but it looked wonderful & always had lots of people in it. Our only complaint is that the carpets in the hallways are a super weird design that looks like something is leaking; clearly it's the design, but it's really off-putting.
