We come here every year. Quite peaceful and a perfect base for the Margaret River wines, dines and sites

First visited in 2020, loved it so much we came back and got married here. There is nothing I don't love about Forest Rise, from the lake to the chalets to the wonderful staff! Really cannot recommend it enough

Everything you could want for a romantic get away & we were grateful for all the special touches, like welcome drinks & snacks. Amenities are excellent & staff are very friendly, responsive & helpful if there are any issues or questions. Stunning bush location that feels very secluded & cozy when the fire is burning. We highly recommend staying here & would love to again ourselves

We just celebrated my hubby’s BIRTHDAY here and stayed couple of nights. The chalet exceeded my expectations, all the small details in there gives you the feel of warm and cosy atmosphere. Chalet was warmed up for us, bubbly was chilled ready to pop. Amazing views from our windows. Loves the spa with the glass ceiling. Thanks Deb for providing us with the relaxing, romantic and lovely experience. We will come back for sure 😊

What a weekend! We booked the lodge with some friends and once we arrived we couldn't believe the place. Amazing secluded lodge in the forest, we had nobody around, such a great place to just wind down and relax. Starting with the booking, everything was so easy and Benson was such a darling accomodating to everything we wanted (organising yoga and massages for our 8 people group). We were welcomed with a pack of delicious local food and drinks, relaxing music, you could see the kangaroos jumping around the property through the window, just a dream to be honest. 110% recommended!

My husband and I treated ourselves and our bridal party to the Forest Rise Chalets and Lodge for the weekend of our wedding in Yallingup Siding in October 2020. We booked the lodge and a few chalets. The lodge is beautiful. It was the perfect base for our family/friends and us to gather, get ready for the wedding and relax. The kitchen and inside and outside dinning areas are spacious and have all the cooking and serving utensils needed. The pool, spa and ensuite bathroom for every bedroom are welcome luxuries. The firepit at the lodge was a perfect spot to watch the sun go down and enjoy a glass of wine. There are loan bikes and picnic backpacks at each chalet which makes enjoying the grounds and getting between chalets easy. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. This place is magic.

This place is out of this world, they have thought of everything I could of cried when I had to leave.

Amazing accommodation option for the region. We had 3 nights there and it was beautiful. The accommodation provides a beautiful setting, great amenities including bikes and wood for the wood fire. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough and can't wait to stay there again!

This place was a dream. The chalets were so private and peaceful and had everything we could have needed and more. An experience like no other with private bush walks, bikes provided and the most amazing bath tub. Thank you, we can't wait to come back.

I dont know where to start - this place is amazing! From the moment you walk in, you can tell that the owners have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. We walked in to cosy lighting, the heating on, and a fridge full of complimentary goodies!! We loved exploring the property on the bikes provided, and absolutely LOVED the kangaroo spotting all weekend - we even managed to catch a few boxing kangaroos on our porch one morning, what a treat to watch! The fire place was roaring all weekend and we genuinely didn't want to leave. Thank you so much, Forest Rise. We will definitely be back! x *edit - we stayed in the Elegant Parrot

Well located hidden gem What a surprise. This truly is a hidden gem. Well equipped with everything you will possibly need. Just BYO food and drinks. The log fire is beautiful on winter nights along with the fire pits around the property by the lake. The bikes were an awesome addition for exploring their property and the bushwalking trails were a bonus. We will be back for sure !!

Our favourite place to stay near Margaret River! We had a one bedroom cabin, it was great as always, plenty of firewood, great cleanliness, complementary snacks and drinks to kick off our stay. Very secluded feeling, we didnt see anyone else around, but we knew it was booked out at the time.

Amazing, relaxing secret hideaway! Fabulous find! Lovely chalet so close to the wineries and breweries or just to come and chill. Absolutely gorgeous and lots of added touches to make it even more special. Thank you forest rise team 💕

One of my favourites in the south west We have stayed at forest rise a handful of times now and just keep coming back as it’s one of our favourite places to stay. It’s situated in the best location if you want to explore the best wineries, all within really short driving distance. This trip we went on the last weekend in July when the weather was crazy cold and it was even hailing - it is my favourite time to be here as the chalets are so luxe, warm and inviting and you can relax and unwind by the fire watching the footy or sit in the spa bath under the stars watching the rain come in. When the weather permitted we went on bush walks through the many walking trails and sat under the gazebo drinking wine. Pure bliss!!

The ultimate couples getaway We stayed here recently for my birthday/babymoon getaway at the boobook owl one bedroom chalet. Very pretty property, stunning bike and walking tracks. Kangaroos everywhere. Even complementary bikes to use for stay. Each chalet is very private. Check in and check out all done online, so didn’t need to see anyone. Chalets are wooden, rustic but still modern. Fire and lots of fire wood for cold winter nights. Biggest bath you’ve ever seen with glass ceiling. Fridge filled with south west goodies, including cheese, nuts, chocolate, cider, beer & prosecco. Vasse virgin amenities in bathroom. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Will definitely recommend to anyone wanting a private south getaway! Thanks so much.

An immersion in nature We were welcomed into cosy warmth with some complimentary treats - so lovely after a long drive. Waking up to a window overlooking the bush, seeing the birds each morning and arriving back each day of our stay to kangaroos grazing in the paddocks was a highlight. Forest Rise feels secluded and yet you are a short drive to a lot of eateries, wineries and activities in the Margaret River Region, We are definitely going to stay there again.

South West Western Australia Getaway Great Chalet nestled in iconic South West Margaret River wine Region. Close to some beautiful wine and local produce. Beautiful inside and out, clean and basically perfect getaway from the hustling city of Perth. Can't wait to return, again and again!

Beautiful, secluded and peaceful Forest Rise is a beautiful property. As you approach your chalet you feel a sense of peace wash over you. Well equipped, clean, luxurious. Loved the full cooking facilities so we could look after ourselves but will definitely take advantage of the in house chef next time! The arrival gifts are a special touch that I really appreciate. No contact check in worked well for us so we could arrive and depart as needed. The location is also very central with lots of options within a short drive to eat and drink. Would definitely stay again.

Absolutely awesome experience The setting and location was the scene for a perfect getaway. The chalet and the facilities were second to none and everything required to stay and be self sufficient was all at hand. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and would definitely stay there again as well as recommend the accommodation to others.
