This property fits 6 adults very nicely and had many options for hot days on the lake or rain days in the garage game room. The property has a nice fire pit but does not provide wood. If you plan on more sleeping on the couch there is no window coverings on the main room for blocking the light. Enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home right on the lake. The grandkids had a blast on the dock and in the water, the game room was an added bonus for entertainment. The second story deck has incredible views of the lake and surrounding area, would have spent the entire time there if possible :). Forest Lake has much to offer and would recommend all to check this home out for a great getaway!

The lake is great. You can catch lots of fish. The property is not comfortable for 8 people like the listing says it can sleep. This property would be good for 3 adults and 2 children max. The beds were not very comfortable. The futon is extremely uncomfortable. My daughter had to sleep on a cot in the closet. The owner came to get their boat while we were there and said it would take 10 min. My sister said it took more like an hour and she wanted to tan on the dock but felt uncomfortable. Our last day the owner sent two kids over to mow the lawn and pull weeds out of the lake. This was a couple hours which was weird as I was trying to work in the sunroom. Communication on that would have been nice. There was no body soap for the shower. Unfortunately it wasn't our best stay.

This was a perfect vacation for my family! The use of space in the home was perfect, and the garage was a wonderful space to get away and play games and hang out. Loved using the kayaks every morning and waking up to the sunrise right outside the master bedroom! The dock was a great place to relax at too with a nice table and umbrella. We brought our boat and the owners were so kind as to give us tips about the lake and suggested boating over to the pizza pub, so fun! Great recreational and fishing lake, this was a trip to remember and we will be back!

Very enjoyable home on the lake. The house sits right up to the edge of the lake and is very comfortable with some great rooms to enjoy the view and sunrises.

Shared this home with my brother and his young adult children. We had plenty of room to cook, socialize and play games together. We will definitely look into this property for future get togethers.

We loved our stay here! My two kids (10&13) especially loved the game room. We flew in from CA to meet our two Minneapolis friends at this perfect lake house. It had everything we needed. The view of the lake was just beautiful-especially the mornings I managed to catch the sunrise over the lake. We loved cozying up by the fireplace and cooking great dinners in the kitchen. The hosts were fabulous and responsive. Couldn’t recommend this place more for a quick getaway with friends!

We stayed here for our annual sibling get together and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Daniel and Heather were wonderful hosts and good communicators. This property is truly better than the description and everyone in our group was delighted. It's located close to the metro but still far enough to feel like a getaway.

My husband and I had a great stay at the house. We LOVED the views. So nice to be able to see the water whether you were upstairs or downstairs!! We very much liked how quiet it was at the house. We used the game room which was nice since it did turn out to be a little rainy while we were there. We would definitely return to this house. Great stay!!

First time visiting Forest Lake, and would go back in a heartbeat. Dan and Heather were extremely helpful in offering suggestions in the area and in pre-booking. If we would’ve had issues (we had none) I know they would’ve been taken care of it immediately.
The porch and dock were where we spent most of the time, they are as picturesque as advertised!
Plenty of places to sleep and the game room will be a great escape for those with kids.
We all enjoyed our stay and it will be in consideration for next summer!!!

This is the ideal property in the twin cities area for family or a group of friends! The house is beautiful and spacious and the game room was a big hit after a day in the lake. The place comes with kayaks, fishing poles, floaties and a beautiful dock to sit and enjoy the sunset and moon rise. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and very helpful all along the way with the booking process to check-out. Couldn’t recommend this property more.

The property was great overall, and the game room was a nice feature. The lake was extremely weedy though, so that part was disappointing.

It was great. Lots of games to play. Lots of places to relax. Beautiful lake front property.
You need to put a blow dryer in one of the bathrooms. Only thing missing that we needed.
Awesome place.

What a nice, welcoming cabin to stay at. All the beds were very comfortable. The outdoor kitchen was awesome to use. Only missed the jetted tub which was not working. Would recommend for any family.
