About host

Renee Pascoe


Hello, I'm Renee, owner and host of Fernglen Forest Retreat.

I take great pride in welcoming guests to our peaceful rainforest retreat in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges. Fernglen Forest Retreat is a family-owned property set on seven acres of beautiful native forest, offering five unique self-contained cottages for couples, families, groups and guests travelling with their pets.

Having spent many years in the Dandenong Ranges, I love sharing my knowledge of the area's hidden gems, scenic walks, gardens, cafés, wedding venues and local attractions. Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a family holiday, a group gathering or simply looking for a quiet escape in nature, I'm always happy to help you make the most of your stay.

My goal is for every guest to feel relaxed, welcomed and at home from the moment they arrive. I look forward to helping you experience the beauty, peace and wildlife that make Fernglen Forest Retreat such a special place to visit.
