Great option for families!
My husband and our two kids (ages 13 & 17) stayed here for a few nights. The house has been recently renovated, with new appliances and furnishings - everything is lovely (kudos to the interior designer!) and "low mileage". The home is in a quiet neighborhood, and just a short drive/walk to shopping and restaurants. We appreciated the lake access, including the kayaks and fishing poles. The fire pit and deck are very nice, too. Access to laundry was a plus, especially after my daughter introduced her brand new white sweatshirt to ketchup. :-) The complimentary k-cups, laundry supplies, and bundle of firewood was great.
For those concerned about the downstairs occupants: We only heard them once during our stay (it just sounded like a muffled conversation) and never saw them. It didn't feel disruptive and didn't detract from our enjoyment of the property.
We enjoyed our stay; the property and its amenities worked well for our family.

Great place in a great location
Our family got together for the 4th of July weekend and we loved everything about our stay. The lake was great and we had access to the kayaks. We also had access to games and a fire pit for at night. There was a festival going on in Forest Lake which was another nice addition. The host was quick to respond to any of my questions.
