Reviews from previous Forest Creek Lodge & Spa guests
“Forest creek is nestled at a foot of mountain, away from the big lights and transverse by a vehicle with ride height. This makes its perfect quick get away. The lodge is well kept and the staff are friendly and accommodating. The forest walk is one of the best. The hike is technical; crossing stones, rivers, trees etc. But not difficult like the berg which gains altitude rather fast. Its also very scenic and relaxing. The location and nature is the standout feature of Forest Creek” wrote PhilCharRedd on their TripAdvisor page.
Reville N added; “This was a wonderful weekend getaway! Forest Creek Lodge is set among panoramic mountains with walks along a stream in an indigenous forest. The cottage was comfortable with a deck to watch the black eagles and other birdlife. Friendly service, great food – we will return!”
