Waterfront vacation rentals in Forest Lake

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!(:

I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The one-bedroom space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The shower was excellent, with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The neighborhood felt very safe, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Communication with the host was smooth, and they were very accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and secure place to stay by the historic lake.

We stayed here for about 6 weeks for a job we had in Red Wing. Easy drive in and out. The place was well stocked and very clean. The only irritation we had was the parking and the bar next door. You never knew what the parking situation was going to be. And the bar could be loud on the weekends and very busy. Other than that, we would definitely recommend people staying here for long term jobs. Anthony was always responsive and very accommodating when we needed to extend our stay.

Great location, comfy bed, interesting building, great view. Felt safe and was quiet. Note that there is not currently a walkable grocery store but you can get the train to one or use ride share.

My friend and I have stayed here twice now for writing retreats and just love it. First of all the aesthetics and design are just right on with lovely natural light, no clutter, and high end choices. Everything is functional and beautiful and comfortable. I am amazed at the hosts ability to design a space. Second of all, the coffee shop downstairs is so great and has a great vibe. It is also right on a hiking trail. For a writing retreat, it was perfect.

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.

Very Happy with the property, had no issues with checking in or out. I would highly recommed Tonya and this property.

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!

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.

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!

I can't wait to come back! this was peaceful and charming. the kids loved it so much and enjoyed exploring, roasting marshmallows and staying in the bunk! nature at night was magical and we slept so good. highly recommend!

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.

We stayed here for a girls’ weekend and the house was perfect for us! Modern, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We loved the little lake outside the kitchen window and enjoyed hanging out on both the front and back porches in addition to making s’mores around the fire pit. Beds were comfortable and so were the couches! We loved the big craft table for doing puzzles and playing games. It was close and convenient to Stillwater, too. A really great home for a weekend getaway!

The property was a little gem secluded in a forested area. Windows looked out onto a beautiful pond. It was so peaceful to watch visiting wildlife. The space was a basement level of a home and was huge. There were 2 bedrooms and 3 baths. It would be perfect for a family.

Such a beautiful place to stay! The hosts were quick to respond to anything we needed. The place was so cozy, nice, and clean. A fun downtown location. We had such a great stay!

My husband and I were in town to visit our son. Stephanie’s place provided a serene, peaceful atmosphere with a beautiful view of the lake. Her backyard patio and flower garden was a great space to relax and visit in.

This is a great place to stay in Stillwater! You are close to all the shops and restaurants downtown. It has a beautiful view of the river. Walking trails are nearby as well and the place itself was pristine and comfortable. Would highly recommend!

this place is awesome! book it!

Jacob was a great host, willing to be flexible on timing and super accommodating. Super responsive! We love the Yellow Lake Lodge next door, such a great community! So many great local places to checkout!
