The Forester was a beautiful place to stay. The hotel has been recently updated and looks very nice. The rooms worked great for us, we were with 2 other couples and had a couch and chair in the room so we could visit with them in the evening.
I would stay here again if I was in the area.

I love this hotel !! We used to stay at Dear Path Inn and this is on par with that level of quality although a bit more modern. The food at the restaurant called Oaken is delicious and their brunch is fantastic. I would go to Oaken to eat even if not starting at the hotel. We are Lake Forest College parents and this hotel has good proximity to the college.

Amazing hotel in Chicago’s North Shore. Perfect, new rooms that are immaculate and very comfortable beds. Great service all around. Nice restaurant if you are eating in.

The Forester was amazing! Very clean/modern, staff very attentive, and location was great! The rooms were spacious and even with being close to the interstate, noise was never an issue! We will definitely be back if we’re ever back in the area.

Incredibly attentive sales and event staff for our cocktail reception. Sleeping rooms were clean and well maintained. Everyone was so friendly and helpful during my stay. Food and drink were lovely. 12/10 experience.

Enjoyed the hotel location, cleanliness, and great service. The restaurant is surprisingly good. It’s a tad on the expensive side ($11 for a bottle of sparking water, $20 for eggs and bacon), but it’s worth it. The front desk team is very courteous.
