Forest Lake Beach — Attraction in Forest Lake

As a child I would always go to this beach and it was very lovely because it was well kept. In recent years however it has fallen into Decline and disrepair. The only thing that it has going for it is the location, it has restaurants very accessible to it and it's a very good place for boating. However if you wish to go swimming and you are an adult the depth in which is the furthest you are allowed to go is not even close enough to wear a 6-ft man or woman could be able to swim in it only a small child would be able to swim in the deep end. A beach is supposed to be a family Endeavor however at Forest Lake Beach this can no longer be because not all family members are able to enjoy it. Forest Lake Beach needs...

Quiet, shallow beach, perfect for kids as it's not very deep. Parents be warned, there is no lifeguard.

Please monitor your children at all times.

The park has open restrooms and an outdoor shower to rinse off after the lake.

Due to the location of the park on the lake this is a wonderful Park to view a sunset as the lake is lit up in front of you and the colors constantly change with the sky during sunset.

The park is cleaned daily.

Please remember you're always on native land, leave nothing but footprints and fond memories....

This is a great beach, park, and launch area in downtown Forest Lake. Ample free public parking including handicap. Lots of places to eat and recreate nearby. Park has a children's play area, public bathrooms, picnic areas including grills, covered picnic shelters, sandy beach area, and two boat launches. A great place to bring kids or your dog! We like to go there on date night and just hang out and enjoy the atmosphere on a beautiful Minnesota evening. This beach and Park will not disappoint! My dog's...
