Hi, this is Helene and Manfred, Welcome to Forest Lodge. We are wildlife carers for the last 25 years. We look after orphaned and injured animals (mainly Gliders) and raise them to be released back into the wild. We are lucky to live on a relatively large property with natural bushland and riparian rainforest which allows us to release the animals here. So, you might have the chance to see some of Australia's nocturnal wildlife in the huge aviaries we built where the animals can exercise as preparation for release. We have created and designed our own space from the gardens to the house and like to get our hands dirty with gardening and building.

Forest Lodge is a peaceful oasis only 15 minutes from the pristine beaches of Agnes Water and the Town of 1770 on Queensland's east coast where the Great Barrier Reef begins. Here you can book a trip to Lady Musgrave Island, an extraordinary coral cay of the Great Barrier Reef, a ride on the LARC to nearby sand dunes and lighthouse, visit the museum, walk the numerous scenic hikes or just enjoy yourself on the beaches or in one of the cafes and restaurants.
