Info Summary of reviewsLookout Mountain Retreat, situated on the edge of a scenic escarpment, offers guests stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the ocean, making it a perfect destination for those seeking a tranquil escape in the Dorrigo region's lush hinterland. The location provides easy access to local natural attractions like the Dorrigo National Park and Griffiths Lookout, making it an excellent base for exploration.

The property is well-maintained with spacious, comfortably furnished rooms that guests find clean and inviting. The accommodations are noted for their comfortable beds, cozy seating areas and well-equipped kitchens, which make longer stays both convenient and pleasant. Many rooms feature lovely patios or views, enhancing the serene atmosphere of the retreat and allowing guests to soak in the picturesque surroundings, which include beautiful gardens and even deer on the grounds.

Despite some challenges with meal services, the dining experience at Lookout Mountain Retreat receives high praise when available. The onsite Italian-style restaurant is lauded for its delicious dishes, such as well-cooked lamb racks and pork ribs. However, limited opening hours and occasional closures mean that guests sometimes need to find alternative dining options in nearby Dorrigo, where local spots like Peaches are recommended for their excellent pastries.

Breakfast at the retreat can be hit or miss with mixed reviews concerning the availability and operation of the on-site cafe and restaurant. Visitors often venture into town for breakfast, but the serene morning setting and abundant wildlife at the retreat make for an enjoyable start to the day regardless.

Guests consistently commend the friendly and professional staff at Lookout Mountain Retreat for their warm hospitality. The management team, particularly Craig, receives specific accolades for going out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. The seamless check-in and check-out process adds to the hassle-free experience and the staff’s accommodating attitude further enhances the overall guest experience.

In conclusion, Lookout Mountain Retreat offers a rejuvenating escape with its breathtaking location, comfortable accommodations and stellar service. While there are minor areas for improvement, particularly regarding meal services, the overwhelming positive reviews make it a highly recommended destination for those looking to immerse themselves in natural beauty and tranquility.
