We spend…read moremost of our time in Minocqua, Wisconsin; but, on the big(ger) city trips like to Rhinelander, we always make it a point to swing by the Briar House for their excellent coffee concoctions. Nicole was friendly, welcoming and a barista extraordinaire. This definitely made our experience. I had theCarmelita, 20 ounce, as I needed to get more energy to make it through the afternoon and also, I needed to 'get my Maxx on.' Yes, TJ Maxx is right around the corner at Riverwalk Centre. The Briar House is always an A++ experience due to the high-quality coffees, as well as the really friendly hospitality!! I recommend to always include the Briar House with your TJ Maxx'in as you will be sharper and more mentally alert in hunting down and spotting the deals!

There was a plethora of options including, but not limited to, vodka, onesies, plushies, magnets, and beer. If I'm being honest, I hadn't heard of the mythical creature until we came to Rhinelander and now I have a magnet on my fridge as a reminder of our time in this town. The person who helped us was an absolute delight and welcomed us to the area.

This has become Rhinelander's Hodag stuff store! Anything you can think of is here, with a Hodag on…read moreit! Through the front window of this repurposed service station, you can see an array of Hodag themed merchandise. Most of it is new, however, there are old, brown. Rhinelander Shorty bottles for sale, the same ones my mother and father used to drink Rhinelander beer from. Yellow diamond signs, reflective and manufactured to DOT standards warn of Hodag crossings. Other signs indicate Hodag parking only, others will be crushed. You'll find front license plates, license plate frames, mouse pads, thimbles, bells, bottle openers, salt and pepper shakers, refrigerator magnets, decals, geocaching emblems and, of course, sweatshirts and t-shirts in a wide range of sizes. The Hodag store shares the space with a resale shop filled with artifacts of several varieties. In addition, there are works of art for sale, of course, also themed around the Hodag. Because of the nature of art, the inventory is subject to change. During my visit, there was a cross-cut saw painted with a scene featuring the Hodag. What's a Hodag? It's a mythical beast that sprang from the fertile mind of another Rhinelander legend, Gene Shepard, a practical joker of renown. The fearsome creature was "captured" by Shepard in 1896. It was made by Shepard and an expert carver; Shepard exhibited the creature in carnival side-shows. It has since become the official symbol of Rhinelander, his image appearing on water towers, squad cars, and signage, he's even the mascot of the high school. A park is named for the Hodag and now there's even a huge music festival that uses his name. And now, thanks to the Hodag Store, you can own a piece of Rhinelander's ambassador and official mascot.

They have a variety of items, so you could easily find a gift for someone here if you're not looking for yourself. They had some cute wind chimes and there was one I liked a lot, but I just moved and am not familiar enough with my new home to know where it could go. They had some plants and planters--I certainly don't need another planter but there was a hedgehog on that was too cute to leave on the shelf. They have some t-shirts, including some Park Falls souvenir ones. There were some baby items, jewelry, and what they're probably best known for--their bath bar. They had a nice large sink and a variety of oils, soaps, and so on for folks to smell and try. I didn't buy any bath stuff but I always appreciate when a store selling lotions and potions has a sink for you to rinse off. Service was friendly and not pushy. Parking is super easy; I'm not sure if there's ever a busy time in Park Falls, but there was street parking directly in front of the store and throughout the downtown.
