Great time on the lake with some friends, I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to get away for the weekend without having to go too far away from the cities.

The process was very easy. The property was at the end of a dead end road.(very private) it has a great game room for rainy days. The landscape is very well kept with patio, gazebo and waterfall. Five TV's so with larger groups you can have variety. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay! Tucked away far enough from the road to not be bothered, but close enough to town for food and fun! Great for a weekend with the boys! Host is super friendly and quick to respond and the cabin is super clean! A great place for family and friends!

Great place to stay!!

We came home to Mn for Christmas and this property was a wonderful cozy home to spend the holiday in! Very easy to find location, near everything you could ever need. The owner was very quick to respond with any questions I asked, everything you need is in the house, and the garage/gameroom/bedroom was a teenage boys dream!! Would definitely stay again!

Fun cabin stay

This cabin is well equipped and has an expansive game room. It would be an excellent place to stay for a family with older children. We were disappointed that the cabin wasn’t directly on the lake but it did have lake access.

Convenient Getaway

Our family stayed at Walleye Cove in Forest Lake for three nights. We wanted to stay near our sports activities in Lino Lakes while also feeling like we were escaping to a lakeside cabin. Every amenity we needed was supplied and we were very comfortable. The garage was an extremely fun space for the kids. Andy was also very attentive and communicated with us very well.

Ice fishing stay

Me, my wife, 2 friends, and our 1.5 year old wanted a place on the lake to ice fish for the weekend. The place was great for this, water access is right across the street. The heated garage was awesome. This place was great for what we needed. Got into some pike, perch, and walleye

Getaway

Bigger than it looks, plenty of space to get “away” but lots of gathering places. Everything we needed (except ice—but that’s my fault for not asking).Garage/Mancave really cool. Andrew was easy to communicate with and reach.
