The Forest Lodge at Camp John Hay sits on a sprawling area
within the camp- away from the big-city hustle and bustle of downtown Baguio.
Here, one can enjoy the rare cool temperature in the middle of a pine forest
which forms part of Baguio City's watershed. Nature lovers can take time to
bask in romantic sunsets and indulge in a casual stroll along quiet, tree-lined
roads on what used to be an American military recreational camp. The whole
gang, the entire family and even the corporate denizens who long to escape from
the city and to let their hair down can vacation and have the best fun in
Baguio on the biggest deal- which means more fun at less cost! The best of both
worlds are here- living spaces that are big and comfortable and an outdoor
environment that offers numerous fun activities.
The warm and cozy feel of The Forest Lodge begins at the
airy and spacious lobby where the modern paintings and tribal décor provide the
dash of color. At the far end is a fireplace where guests can huddle and enjoy
the toasty blaze on cold and rainy nights. The surroundings offer views of
well-tended gardens and glimpses of the Cordillera mountain range in the
distance. The hotel's log cabin design inspires togetherness, bonding and the
traditional Baguio hospitality.
Real rest and relaxation await guests inside the rooms.
These living spaces are tastefully furnished with handsome furniture, subtle
décor and cable TV. Here, windows open to more views of the surrounding pine
forests and gardens. Some of the rooms offer refreshing views of the fairways
with their expansive stretches of greens. Homey and well-appointed
accommodation choices range from Superior and Deluxe Rooms to One-Bedroom
Suites. Free Wi-Fi services are naturally available at the lobby for those who
still want to get in touch with family, friends and business associates while
on a holiday.
For adventure-seekers and those that get their kicks from
action-packed sports activities, The Forest Lodge hosts an outdoor sports area
where rides promise to raise the body's adrenaline levels. The Canopy Ride
takes one above the tree line and gets them acquainted with ecology on the tree
tops. Not one for the fainthearted, the Superman Ride gives the sensation of
flying above the trees. In the Tree Drop, as its name suggests, riders plummet
straight from the tree top to the ground beneath. The Silver Surfer literally
allows riders to surf above ground.
Baguio City is also a foodie's haven and The Forest Lodge offers some sumptuous
treats at The Twist. The new café has a laidback and friendly feel that sets
the mood for casual dining. Renowned culinary artist, Chef Billy King, has
whipped up a menu of delicious snacks, quick-but-hefty short order items and
tempting pastries for those who have a sweet tooth. At The Twist, one can pass
the time away plugged to the music player while nursing a cup of coffee, or
shoot the breeze with a pal in between sips of iced tea or fresh fruit juice.
From The Forest Lodge, holidaymakers can take pleasure from
the other attractions inside Camp John Hay. Those in the mood for some retail
therapy can head to Mile High and shop in any of the retail outlets that sell
the latest fashion issues from a host of brand labels. Restaurants and cafes
offer anything from authentic Italian treats to Filipino all-time favorites.
The Baguio-AyalaLand TechnoHub, on the other hand, invites visitors to its
selection of charming cafes and specialty restaurants for quiet meals and
snacks.
