Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Forest Lake

This place worked great for our group of 12! We had plenty of room in the dining room to eat, and everyone had a place to sleep. It’s a beautiful old house with all the uniqueness of older buildings - our kids had fun opening doors and discovering new things. As the advisor of a group of kids, the creaking stairs made it easy to know when they were all waking up. I thought parking on Grand Avenue would be a nightmare but it was just fine. Crystal was amazing to work with and super cooperative - she was a dream to communicate with. I would recommend!

Very nice set up, perfect for us. 2 couples, 2 separate floors providing private space when needed but plenty of space for ganging out. The sauna was awesome.

This airbnb is great, perfect place for a group to stay in the area. Dottie was responsive, kind, and considerate - an excellent host!

A group of us stayed at Nona's place during Big Turn Music Fest weekend. We had an absolute blast, and this stay was everything we wanted. Of note: The home is super spacious, and even with eight people, we all were able to retreat to our own little corners whenever we needed a break. The view is simply stunning. We arrived after dark and it was a treat to wake up to the sight of the frozen river and bluffs in the morning. The kitchen was the best AirBnb kitchen I've ever stayed in. A fully stocked spice cabinet, baking basics, excellent dish and cookware (including Le Creuset!!), and a coffee/appliance nook with everything you'd need. We weren't bothered by the train or the nearby airport and the stay was super peaceful, while also close enough to Red Wing for an easy trip to the music. Thank you, Nona, for a great weekend!

Absolutely incredible stay! Brian is, without question, the BEST Airbnb host we’ve ever had. (And we’ve had TONS). He went above and beyond for everything—so much so that we’re already planning to make this an annual tradition. We celebrated my husband’s birthday with a private hibachi dinner on the deck overlooking the river, and it was unforgettable. The house itself is stunning—beautiful, spotless, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could need. But what really set this experience apart was Brian. Not only was he incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, but when we had a (completely our fault) issue with his pontoon, he came out on his own boat to help us—and even stopped by the next day to make sure everything was okay. Truly the most accommodating, kind, and thoughtful host we’ve ever met. If you’re lucky enough to stay at one of Brian’s properties, go. You won’t regret it!

This place was perfect for our gathering! Clean home, communicative hosts, and easy instructions for check in/check out. Would totally stay here again!

The Rose cottage is an comfortable historic cottage that the Artis and spouse have lovingly restored. I enjoyed having interesting things to look at everywhere. (NOT a beige and grey place like so many). Artis came immediately when we had an issue. Ability Note: stairs are steep and tub is self standing and requires balance to get in and out.

Alisa place was beautiful & very clean. Neighbourhood was nice and quiet. Alisa kept us updated and was very friendly Liz overall a great experience for me and my family. Would highly recommend & book again in the future.

Ideal location, beautiful home and super friendly hosts! This home was perfect for our family - plenty of space, super comfy beds and very thoughtful touches like snacks, local magazines and a fully equipped kitchen. Nancy greeted us when we arrived and checking in was very easy. The neighborhood was delightful and we loved walking down to see the falls and visiting some local shops. We were centrally located and close to mall of America and Xcel Energy Center. Will definitely stay here again when we visit Minneapolis!

Great place to stay in a quiet neighborhood within 1 mile of downtown Red Wing. Highly recommended.

Very flexible and great communication. Highly suggest for students who are rotating at the VA hospital.

Sara’s place was so cute and comfortable! She was easy to communicate with and very helpful. Would definitely come back for a longer stay!

We’ve been taking long weekend vacations to Red Wing this time of year for many years and found Stephanie’s place for the first time last year. We’re very happy that we could stay here again this year! It’s within walking distance of historic downtown Red Wing, near many shops, restaurants, historic sites and beautiful scenery. We’ve enjoyed staying at Stephanie’s Apt. twice (so far) and like being in a small town neighborhood instead of a hotel/motel on the main strip. We also wander around being 'tourist's' the whole time and it's a relaxing place to put up your feet at the end of each day!

This is our favorite location when we visit St. Paul. There are plenty of great restaurants near by and lots to do. The place is peaceful and feels homey.

We had a fantastic stay in Minneapolis! The space was clean, cozy, and had such a warm, homey vibe — it immediately felt like a place to relax and unwind. The beds were super comfortable, and we slept great. Our host, Andy, was incredibly accommodating and kind, especially with our late check-in, which made everything so smooth and stress-free. You can tell care was put into making this a welcoming space. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

This was a wonderfully charming Airbnb that was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully preserved vintage details! My fiancé and I rented for a week to be our home base during our wedding week (my hometown, currently out-of-state). JJ was super responsive, proactively gave clear instructions, and was super kind to leave us ample snacks (got in late) and celebrated our upcoming nuptials with a bottle of champagne, slippers, and an adorable oven mitt, spatula, and cookbook. Definitely above and beyond!!! The location felt safe with easy access to highways and it was walkable to a great coffee shop and within 10 minutes from our rehearsal dinner and wedding venue. Great value and would recommend and stay again!!! The only minor thing to note is that although the upstairs tenant was very quiet, I was woken up a few mornings by (a dog?) running around upstairs excitedly. The dog was well-behaved/quiet but because the house is older I did hear its weight shifting the floorboards around.

Seana was an excellent, responsive host, and her place is cozy, clean, and comfortable. The location is ideal— right by several quality restaurants and near the lake— and the apartment is well equipped with tea, coffee, and a great spot by the window where you can enjoy them in the morning.

Good location, walkable to the lakes. Everything was as described and well maintained

I brought my son and his friends to a concert this past weekend, and Jason’s place was perfect for us. He was so friendly, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed. We will certainly be a regular moving forward. Thank you for making this weekend even more memorable! We HIGHLY recommend!

We loved this condo because it was authentically representative of a time so long ago!! Yet out the door was a park with a lake and yummy restaurants

Was needing to be close to University of Minnesota for campus visits and tours. Was a quick drive across the bridge, but we also chose to walk to campus a few times since the weather was nice. It was an easy 15-20 minute walk. Great Coop grocery store just a block away and nice walking paths and quiet neighborhoods around. House has a historic vibe with all the necessary amenities.

Second time staying here and we love it for a girls trip! Located right downtown. Stay was great lots of bedding. Only downside was the upstairs patio was under construction and that was never mentioned prior to checkin. Was a bummer because we were all excited to sit out there the first night as it was a beautiful Minnesota spring day. Otherwise stay was great!!!

Our unit was in a large Victorian home. It had a vintage look and feel, which we liked. It was large, clean, and quiet, and well equipped. It had a garage for parking, which was easy to access. It is close to many St. Paul attractions… we walked to our event at the palace theatre. All in all, a lovely stay!

John’s place was in a great location. It was exactly what we needed for our short business trip. There’s plenty of street parking and a space onsite. The neighborhood is safe and there’s a lot of walkable restaurants nearby.
