Forest Lake

Forest Lake lies beside its namesake lake in northern Washington County, where wooded lakeshores and suburban neighborhoods form part of the wider Twin Cities region. The city’s setting reflects Minnesota’s lake country, with public access to Forest Lake supporting boating, fishing and seasonal recreation. Downtown Forest Lake serves as a local commercial center, while the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail follows a former railroad corridor through the area. Its location north of Minneapolis–Saint Paul makes it a useful stop between metropolitan life and the quieter communities of east-central Minnesota.
