Sunrise Views - Lake Cabin - Dock Access • Bring Your Boat • Walk to Downtown

Cozy Lake Cabin Getaway with Sunrise Views • Walk to Downtown • Boat-Friendly

Welcome to your perfect lakeside escape—where mornings begin with breathtaking sunrises over the water and days are made for boating, fishing, and soaking up the best of lake life.

This cozy cabin is nestled just steps from the lake, offering beautiful water views and easy access to all your favorite warm-weather activities. Bring your boat—the public launch is just a half block away, and you’ll have convenient access to a shared dock, perfect for tying up, casting a line, or simply relaxing by the water.

Spend your mornings fishing or cruising the lake, afternoons exploring the charming shops and restaurants within walking distance in downtown Forest Lake, and evenings unwinding as the sky reflects across the water in a stunning sunset glow.

With two spacious decks, you’ll have the perfect spot for morning coffee overlooking the lake or a laid-back afternoon drink in the sun. As night falls, gather around the fire pit, share stories, and enjoy that unmistakable up-north feeling—right in town.

Whether you're planning a fishing weekend, a boating adventure, or a peaceful lakeside retreat, this cabin offers the best of both worlds: cozy charm, beautiful views, and effortless access to everything Forest Lake has to offer.

Cozy property, great location, great host!

The property is in a great location in Forest Lake, anything you need is walkable from the house and you can easily get down to the water right from the backyard! We stayed for the Chisago Lakes Triathlon and it was a quick 10-15min drive over to Paradise Park from the property. Sonja was great and very accommodating, and we will definitely be staying here again for our next little beach town getaway!

Wonderful location

A nice cottage style home on Forest Lake. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. We rented this place for our wedding night as most of our guests stayed at nearby hotel. Perfect for a quick getaway from the cities. The lovely hosts left us a special gift for our wedding. Thank you for allowing us to stay here on such a special weekend.

Cozy!

Although it rained the whole weekend, we enjoyed our cozy stay so much! The hosts were attentive and available right away for questions, both before and during our stay. The kitchen is huge and the shower is great, plus plenty of fluffy towels (it's the little things!). We enjoyed the thoughtful little "extras" Sonja did for us.

Cozy Cottage

The cottage is a small, simple and pleasant stay. Was clean and smelled wonderfully so. The only suggestion would be the full size beds. I understand a queen would take over but it would be a benefit at least in the larger bedroom. My husband ended up sleeping on the floor our 2nd night. Overall, it was a great stay.

A Forest Lake Retreat

We were attending a family wedding in Scandia, but also visiting with relatives in the Twin Cities. This charming Forest Lake cottage was the perfect escape from all of the activity. It had everything we needed for our stay. Its location near the lake was ideal for relaxing walks and exploring the local area. The cottage itself was clean, comfortable and truly enjoyable. Sonja was a terrific host, making sure we had everything we needed and responding to questions right away. A special thanks to her (and her sister) for the impromptu TP delivery after we arrived!

This cabin was exactly as advertised. My Husband and I Booked this lovely cabin in Forest Lake for 1 month. To be close to family. In May my husband passed. So, this vacation turned into a funeral. The cabin was the perfect place to be. Sonja and Mike are so nice and made this month so special. I would do this again in a heartbeat. Daphne Winter Haven FL

Old. Could be cleaner. It’s not on the lake. There is a big grey house that actually owns the dock and the very narrow path to the lakeshore. No lake view. The fire pit is almost in the street which people park on. The grey house had company parked in the driveway of the vrbo so we had to park on the street. They knew we were there because they talked with us. They also have big dogs that bark at you and aren’t friendly!
