Forest Lake is a great city that is growing each year but still has the love and connection of community to feel small and known. We have beautiful lakes in and throughout our community that are perfect for swimming, boating, paddle boarding, fishing, picnicking, and good old family fun...or snowmobiling, ice fishing, and snowshoeing for those that prefer the winter season! Our main street hosts many local businesses and restaurants and great walking paths provide great accessibility and opportunity for connection throughout our city.
