Holiday rentals with lake access in Forest Lake

We were very happy with the accommodations! The smores kit, sparklers, sunscreen, bug spray, fire wood, extra propane and so much were so helpful! It was a beautiful place and we could have sat outside all day and night long!

If you have a car this place is great. Very convenient to I-394 and Hwy 169. Steven is very responsive and made sure everything was in order. Would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing time at Tamara’s beautiful cottage. Everything inside this little gem was perfect —the furniture, the decor, the appliances, the bedroom, the front porch. We absolutely loved the location and had a great time walking and biking around the lakes, and also just hanging out on the porch drinking some & listening to music thx to nice BT speaker Tamara was a perfect host, made us feel very welcome immediately. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely magical stay! The lake house was the perfect setting for making unforgettable family memories. We spent our days kayaking on the peaceful water, our evenings around the fire pit roasting s’mores, and our nights playing board games with the grandparents. Watching squirrels play in the trees each morning was a delight for everyone. Cozy, clean, and full of charm—this place felt like home from the moment we arrived. Can’t wait to come back!

Booked a stay with some friends for a long weekend at the lake and Heidi’s place was absolutely perfect! She was always responsive, and well prepared with everything we needed from towels to basic kitchen utensils and everything in between. The hot tub was a huge perk and we also had fun taking the kayaks out on the lake. Definitely would recommend booking with Heidi for anyone looking for a relaxing escape near the twin cities!

The house was nice. Pictures were accurate. The neighbors are friendly.

Beautiful home with peaceful surroundings. We enjoyed the hot tub, making smores around a fire, swinging our 1 year old on the rope swing, and many more activities. I was the most impressed with all the fun toys available for our daughter. She had a blast and so did we! Will definitely return in the future.

Just beautiful and cozy. Felt right at home and comfortable in this gorgeous house. Was bigger than expected. Kitchen was fully stocked and easy to make a meal. Beds were really comfortable. My kids loved the bunk and arcade games. Would love to come backs in the summer.

This small unit has everything you need for a comfortable stay. As a host, Lucie was very communicative and her hospitality was thoughtful and gracious. She provided snacks and bathroom toiletries. With a couple of quirks, everything worked as it was supposed to. One quirk was that the shower will spray water out into the bathroom when you turn it on unless you make sure that the curtain is pulled. Another is that when you turn on the TV, the screen just shows snow, so you have to figure out how to use the remote and the menu system in order to watch Netflix. There is apparently no general TV, if that matters to you. Wi-fi was fine. The lake location is pretty and quiet. Lucie offered us the use of her kayaks. However, it's not really a neighborhood where you can go for walks, so this is a location that you either can use as a base for doing other things in the area, or a place to relax in, along with the deck where you can sit outside. Lucie does a good job for her guests.

The peaceful and beautiful location of this apartment, walkable to Harriet Lake, can’t be overstated. The unit itself is on the top floor of a charming older building, in a well-kept neighborhood graced with towering trees. The unit itself had everything I and my two adult children needed — very comfortable rooms and beds for all, a well-stocked kitchen, a bathroom where everything worked as it should (plenty of hot water), and of course, that gorgeous outdoor deck right off the living room, where we spent so much of our time. We plugged in the lights at night and it was magical. The location meant we were close enough to walk down to Harriet Lake and then run the 3-mile loop around, finishing the run off with a beer or a delicious ice cream at the Bread and Pickle, near the outdoor amphitheater where, if the stars align, you can find someone on stage singing about love, grief, and redemption. So many great restaurants all around. Khâluna was fantastic — don’t think, just go!

Bob & Lisa’s home was very beautiful & we felt right at home! Bob came out & greeted us soon as we got there, showed us around, & we’re always willing to help if needed! They are such wonderful hosts! We’ll definitely be back in the future!(:

Space was great for the 2 of us, our friend joined for 2 of the nights and it was great all around. It's so walkable to everything. Host was very responsive to my questions.

So great that we came here a second time! This property is a slice of heaven. Gorgeous sunset views. Kayaks and paddle boats were perfect for our young family being able to paddle to the sand bars and enjoy the lake. “Serenity” is such a perfect description. We will be back again next summer, Lord willing!

It was a great place to stay for the weekend

I was on the road for 23 hours before finally arriving at Tina’s. It was my first time to Minnesota and I am very glad that I chose her place for my family and I. It was peaceful, clean, quiet and very homely. We slept so soundly. It felt as though I hadn’t left home in how at peace we were. Tina responded to any queries I had promptly. I was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is very clean. The only downside for me was that I didn’t book her place for a longer time. I am definitely going back for a longer visit. If you’re still reading this please book already before someone else takes your dates. You won’t regret it one bit! 😀

This location was fantastic for our family of 3! The home is lovely, immediately felt comfortable and we were able to enjoy the outdoor deck area so much! For families, this is a fantastic location. 2 blocks to the beach, one block to nice park on a quiet street and the hosts were amazing at having the home baby proofed and ready for our arrival. Overall, it was the little touches and kind hosts that make this place truly stand out, can’t wait to visit again!

What a charming, cozy and spotless cottage in a very private setting! The description was on point! Very quiet, wonderful neighbors and accessible to parks, restaurants, shopping, etc. Communication with the host was excellent with any concerns! She was lovely to chat with. I would definitely book again! Susan C.

My pup and I felt right at home. comfortable beds and a beautiful view of the lake...what more could a weary traveler ask for? really awesome place. highly recommend...

If you ever want a true lake house experience with all of the fun but none of the dreaded lake house chores this is the place for you. It’s cosy and comes with all the amenities. The owner is a genuinely nice person. You are within driving distance of several “oh fer cute” Minnesota towns and the lake is right outside your door!

Wonderful place to stay and great location. Easy walking distance to the local downtown and the lake.

Enjoyed the welcoming by hosts, coziness, peaceful and private location near Half Moon lake. Beautiful sunsets, night sky, and nearby hiking trails we explored. Provides necessary amenities for a very enjoyable stay! Look forward to booking again.

We have stayed at Little House several times before and it is always a wonderful experience. I would say it's our favorite Airbnb location in the Twin Cities and if it's available to book, we always do!

The hosts, Katie and Curt, were very friendly and responsive. The hot tub on the patio was a big bonus. I also enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and watching the trolley go by through the woods ($3 to take the short historic ride). And just a few minutes to walk to Lake Harriet pavilion to take in some live music or walk around the lake. I’m excited to come back sometime for this relaxing get-away!

Jordyns place was exactly as described. Plenty of room for all our family members. Extremely well stocked with towels, cooking and eating supplies, and other essentials, very clean with a relaxed and comfortable vibe. Definitely one of best Air B & B we've stayed at. Very responsive to our Questions and kept us informed as our check out day arrived. We will definitely stay here again when visiting family . Thank you for a great stay!
