It’s something of a period piece but charming. Not everything is modern but you have all you need and it’s spacious and clean. The grounds are lovely.

Our room was basic but clean and quiet and the bed was comfortable. Just right for our 1-night stay. About 5 mins drive to shops and eateries.

We had the most lovely stay over three nights. While the rooms might be dated, they are immaculately clean and the staff are super friendly and helpful. It would be great to see the restaurant open.

Second time we've stayed here on our visit to Pemberton. Basic but cost effective and all we needed for the kids/family. Beds were comfortable and heaters worked great (although we couldn't figure out why the heating wouldn't go on immediately, but apparently it's like that will the Mitsubishi ones...) - were greeted friendly by the staff and were also able to get a free late checkout.

Very comfortable and affordable stay in Pemberton. I would rate it a 3star motel. Overall we were very happy with our stay. Bed comfy. Basin in bathroom could do with an update but otherwise very clean.

Clean, functional, good location and value for money. Although the Queen bed was very comfortable, the single bed mattresses were more suitable for a child, not adult weight. We had family staying elsewhere in Pemberton who paid 3 times the cost we paid for run down noisy accommodation. We will return to Karri Forest Motel when next visiting Pemberton. Thank you

Nice stay

Lovely, quiet and secluded place just a 10 minute stroll from the town of Pemberton. The room was clean and tidy, just needs a little updating with the bathroom and maybe it’s time to move the worn 1990s sofa out and get a newer one. Shower head was broken/cracked squirting water to different places but still worked well enough. Just needs a little TLC
