What guests think

Across recent reviews, Forest Lodge Resort is praised for its bushland setting with a lake, abundant wildlife, and clean, comfortable, well-equipped rooms, with many guests also noting friendly staff and useful in-room extras such as kitchenettes.

Feedback on the on-site restaurant is mixed: several diners enjoyed quality dishes and attentive service, while others found prices high, items unavailable, slow service, or seasonal closures. Some outdoor areas need maintenance, and a few guests mentioned dated or small rooms, occasional noise between units, or operational hiccups such as a brief water outage. Best for travelers seeking a peaceful base in nature, with restaurant plans worth checking ahead.

The room and bed were comfy, we had a really good night's sleep! The walk around the lake was easy and enjoyable for everyone young and old:) lovely to see the kangaroos around in the evening, and the ducks in the morning:)

Nice stay in a forest environment Our chalet was a little dated and the adjoining room had a spa which was very noisy in our room. Saying that I would stay there again but not in the room we were allocated . The gazebo on the lake also needed some attention and the seating that was there had bird droppings on which was not inviting to sit, which was a shame. On the plus side our bed was made each day and replenished with towels if needed

It was a very convenient place to stay. Having a microwave and toaster was perfect for us. The room was adequate in size, with a fold up table and chairs. The was some noise from the adjoining room. The laundry was convenient but fairly expensive and needed coins. The restaurant was very good with delicious smoked duck and a helpful and attentive waitress. The walk around the little lake was pleasant.

Old fashioned resort with beautiful sunset view but the path to GAZEBO was a bit flooded. Restaurant vibe was wounded as a group buffet was arranged for a big Asian country. Fish was overcooked & prices were set at high side.

The “Lodge” was pleasant enough. Room clean, cosy and tidy. Staff not thoughtful putting cleaning trollies right by our doorway before we had checked out at 10am. Gave an unwelcoming ‘get out’ feeling. They could have waited another 10 minutes. When I dropped the key to reception the German owner wasn’t really interested and just stayed sitting and typing on his computer.. Poor courtesy and hospitality.

Likes: - Quiet - coffee machine Dislikes - only given 1 coffee capsule per guest per night ( any additional are payable, how much are these capsules anyway that they should charge guests who are paying $150 per night stay) - we stayed 2 nights and the cleaning was not thorough ( trash cans not emptied , carpet not vacuumed) - very expensive restaurant , most guests evidently choose to dine elsewhere

Nice walk around the property to view the lake and wild life around (birds, kangaroos). It’s probably the most comfortable hotel stay we’ve ever had. We also had dinner at the restaurant, the food was awesome and the service was great! Looking forward to stay again one day, thank you.

I think the resort would be great for a longer stay. Sadly it was heavy rain and chilly. I expected a larger room, with a table & chairs. There was a fold up table under the TV but only chairs were on the balcony. Guess they could've been brought inside. Bathroom was quite large in comparison with the room. However, for 1 night it was fine. The bed was VERY comfortable. Appreciated the toiletries and tissues. Please also supply paper towels in the kitchen.

Arrived at 4pm on the hottest day of the year in Pemberton at 41 degrees and was given a room facing west with the doors and windows wide open and the room was like an oven. We had to close everything and set the aircon to 20 degrees and go out for 4 hours before we could use the room. A tiny bit of forethought a few hours before, like closing curtains and turning on the aircon, could have made our arrival much more pleasant.

Because I left my paperwork at home, went to property before check-in to see we were at the right property. Told in no uncertain terms "we were to early so will have to come back". We did mention why we were early and did not expect to be able to check-in. Dining experience - staff were excellent, when paying we mentioned tip, told not to as The Boss keeps it all!

A beautiful place to stay, I loved the surroundings, wildlife and accessibility into town. We enjoyed the meal at the restaurant though would have liked a staff person on hand to help with operating the pancake machine. We did get help from the front desk personnel but perhaps a person in the dining room would be better. Very friendly cleaning staff, greeted with a smile.

The property was spectacular, the grounds amazing, the rooms extremely affordable and clean and classy. Unfortunately the restaurant lets the Resort down. 7pm booking couldnt get in earlier. Things sold out on menu and changed different to menu on site online.Then orders taken took almost 50mins before brought to table. Setting only for 1 on table booking for 2. Then rudely cutlery thrown on table without a serviette. The soup was terrible luke warm and terrible taste unable to be eaten. Thank goodness ordered side of garlic bread. Prices extreme extravagant. Rating 5/10 :(
