Top Coolongolook Nature Reserve Hotel Reviews

Discovery Parks - Forster

10/10 Excellent

"We had the absolute best time during our recent getaway at this lovely spot. Every corner of the grounds felt like it was built specifically for making lasting memories with the kids. We spent hours splashing around in the pool while enjoying the warm sunshine. It is rare to find a place that manages to be both relaxing for parents and high-energy for children. We really appreciated how clean and well-maintained all the shared areas remained throughout our entire stay. We are already looking at our calendar to see when we can come back for another visit."

Bream Cottage With Wallis Lake Water Views

10/10 Excellent

"Bream cottage is in an excellent location close to the lovely foreshore with awesome views of the water and boat activity. It was good for our dog to play along the foreshore. It was convenient to the lakeside restaurant in the town which we visited on Saturday Night. The host was good at communicating with me about the area suitable for our dog. I would definitely stay again."

Close to the beach. Family & pet friendly. Enjoy my peaceful coastal retreat.

10/10 Excellent

"A great property for our multi-generation family which included a dedicated playroom with games, chalkboard, toys and TV. Enough space to add a cot in the bedroom and a safe outdoor area for the pup. Included everything we could possibly need in the kitchen, dining and laundry. Excellent communication from owner."
