    Here is what was wrong with the property. 1. Bulb out over the master bath mirror2. Glass shower door in master bath filthy3. Broken red umbrella on dock with big holes in it4. Globe on mantle in family room covered in dust5. Sopping wet towels and linens stuffed in the washing machine-so heavy that they were difficult to get them out of washer6. Propane had to be changed by US-not ready for new guests7.Roku in master not working until we bought new batteries for it8.Recycling bin full-and why did we the guests have to take garbage out to the curb if someone showed up at 11:05 am to clean? Pretty awful for us to have to do that.

    The whirlpool jets did not work and little things like broken light bulbs and loose railings and chairs were annoying. Location was beautiful and the rooms were cozy though!

    overall house was in good shape, bed was decent, house was clean.host sent a lengthy message after booking of the do's and do not's.claimed Jacuzzi tub was not functioning, found out after booking. This was a main option for the booking, my wife really enjoys these and it was very disappointing to find this out after booking.Hot water time was a joke, water heater was probably set to vacation mode, or lowest possible setting. Could not take a relaxing shower any longer than 6-7 minutes of hot water. SO plan accordingly, because if you want to hop in the shower after someone else, it will be freezing.Bring your own pans if you plan to cook anything. All the Teflon pans were scratched- this is a health risk and should be thrown out. couldn't get the main living room fire place to workI cleaned everything as requested, washing machine room was probably the locked room so we couldn't wash any towels.there were some other issues but these are the main things

    Great location on the lake, we loved the upper patio and the outdoor options. Game garage was a hit. Fits 6 adults comfortably.

    There were many highlights of the stay but the biggest one was that there were no surprises. The listing matched our experience. The host did an excellent job setting and meeting expectations. Couldn't ask for a better location. Right on the lake and still being close to the Twin Cities when the weather didn't cooperate. If we were to come to Minnesota again we would re-book.

    We have a wonderful time at the Forest Lake Lakehouse. Everything was as described and exceeded our expectations. A fun bonus was the game room in the detached garage.

    Lovely home with great views of the lake. Nice dock for casting a line and catching various panfish, docking a pontoon rented from Your Boat Club and watching sunrise or set. Outdoor kitchen/Grill was a wonderful way to cook one night, while Stella's on 97 and Zoukmaya were great nearby restaurants. A visit to Winehaven one day and Uncommon Loon the next made for a great jaunt before returning home to the gameroom and firepit to relax and drink some wine!

    Great place to hang out with our adult kids. We wish the weather had cooperated better so that we could have utilized the outdoor space, but still enjoyed the lake views. We even saw a bald eagle amongst the numerous water fowl settling in for the upcoming summer!

    I rented this place for my colleagues. They were thrilled by the location and beauty of the surroundings. Especially right on the lake. While this was primarily a work trip for all, they were able to relax in beautiful surroundings.

    Great house, the most beautiful view of the lake. Beds were comfy and the fireplace was perfect for such a cold weekend. The dining table extends with an extra leaf which was great for our big group. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, tools etc. The game room was great for activities needing more space and the heater was fantastic. There’s lots of parking space in the driveway. Great stay.

    The home was advertised with items ( hot tub) that it didn’t have and I wasn’t made aware of those missing or not working items until we arrived and paid for. Small issue that we take greatly is we are big coffee drinkers. To have a small coffee maker ( and it was dirty) was not good. Just not happy about the weekend!

    Beautiful lake home! Property is very well kept and has many high end features that help keep the stay comfortable. The downstairs bedroom didn’t work very well for my parents with mobility issues, and the neighbor really does not like dogs, even a fully leashed, elderly, friendly lab who was in no way bothersome. Every other aspect of the property was absolutely stunning. Owners were friendly and helpful. Location is convenient. My 3 year old loved the clean, shallow lake, playroom, and local park. Don’t miss watching the sunrise over the lake!
