Sunset Circle waterfront Cottage

There are a few secrets in the area, and this location is one of them! Located on a quiet low traffic road sits this quaint little cottage that is just steps to the lake. You will love and appreciate the level lot to the sandy base lakeshore. Perfect spot for watching amazing sunsets over the beautiful lake. Winter visitors can easily cross-country ski, ice fish, and snowmobile just steps out the door. Brand new remodel flaunting the perfect blend of rustic and modern this super chic cottage has everything you will need. From 4 ship style "berth" bunk beds to the cozy master bedroom with a lake view, you just can't help but to fall in love with the surroundings that this place offers. The kids will love the little game room for those summer nights or rainy days. one full bath and one half bath. Note, this place can comfortably sleep 2 adults and 4 children or 4 adults total. Not very suitable for 6 adults, but can work. Come stay at this little gem, you'll sure be glad you did! Thank you

Perfect and quiet get-away!
Sunset Circle was simply perfect! Loved the decorating inside the cabin - so clean and neat! We found everything we needed for a nice, "chill" weekend. Our hosts were very easy to work with and were always quick to respond to questions. We would highly recommend Sunset Circle and hope to be back again!

Family get together
We had our family get together here Aug 12 - 15th. There were 6 of us total 5 adults and a 5 year old. We loved the location and coziness of the cottage. Everything was perfect. The only thing was the construction on the road but other than that the place was great. Thanks much for an awesome weekend.

Quaint and well appointed lake cottage
We loved our stay at this beautifully appointed lake cottage. It felt roomier than the listed square footage. The owners did a great job of decorating the cottage. The water was lower than expected but it’s been a very dry spring and summer in Minnesota.

Wonderful cozy upscale cabin on great part of Forest Lake!
Cabin is quaint with very upscale, nautical decor and everything we needed and more! The kids loved the quaint bunks, the master has a private walkout with lake view, all the linens and kitchen supplies are very nice. The grass and outdoor property are well-kept with high quality chairs, lounge and large table with umbrella. Sunsets are amazing! Our kids loved playing in the sandy area (and there were a bunch of sand toys provided!). The shoreline is large rocks but there are nice steps farther down the dock to enter the water. The main draw back is that there were a lot of weeds along the shore - it's not a great swimming area. We did have some relaxing canoe rides which was so nice and we rented a pontoon to have which was key for the week with kids. The owner was very responsive to our requests and communication and was very accommodating! Would definitely recommend this place and stay again!

Not good for kids
The property is newly remodeled however it is all IKEA. And there is a mold/mildew problem. If we would have been scheduled to stay more than 4 nights we would have left on day 4 anyway. We all got a cough after sleeping one night. Things you might want to know if bringing kids/infant..... there is no recliner or rocking chair nor any laying down lawn furniture for relaxing by the lake. The lakeshore is not maintained. When I asked for a weed rake to clear an area for kiddos to play I was told there wasn’t one. Yes the lake was extra green due to the drought however that even means there should be effort into maintaining the shoreline. There are no board games, cards, etc. Only the video games and a couple vintage quality yard games. For this price I would expect a perfect lake shore and at least some relaxing lawn furniture.

My new favorite VRBO
This place was even better than I imagined. It was a group of four women for my birthday and we would stay again in a heartbeat. It felt cozy and comfortable. It was peaceful. All of the use of space and choices they made in the updates to the house are perfect. We left so refreshed and full of gratitude.

Quiet neighborhood and beautiful sunsets.
Looked like the pictures we saw on the website. We had to change to the end of September so it was too cold to swim. We'll come back when it's warmer.
