Great video, thanks for sharing. I used to live across the road from the lake on Phillip Place in Settlers Village. Moved away for work in the Central Australian Desert in 2012 and returned in late 2021. I walk the lake and all those great trails you shared some weeks up to forty-three kilometres. I love it. Friendly people. Clean suburb. Outdoorsy vibe. And great walking tracks. ❤
Forest lake has to be my favourite place in the Entirety of Australia, now I probably am biased since I grew up there but even then I only have praise for this place. I also want to thank you for walking around this great suburb it really takes me back
Hi Graham. Thanks for dropping by and for the comments. We have been here 8 years now and it is such a nice place to live. Unless things change we have every intention of making this our retirement home.
Thanks and Happy New Year, glad you enjoyed it. If you're interested in other areas around Brisbane and SE Qld we have another channel - Rob and Ali's Big Days Out - where we visit places and events. Take Care.
Thanks for the comment. I have a video of cycling round the lake that I'll put up and try to do one of the shopping centre and restaurants in the next couple of weeks or so. Robert.
Thanks for the comment. We haven't done much for a little while as we've been working on other things but have some footage to edit and put up. If you're interested in Queensland stuff have a look at our other channel Rob and Ali's Big Days Out. Take care. Robert
Can you please comment or record on how bad/good is the noise living just next to the Logan Motorway such Purdie Pl, Ashton Way (all those streets around) Thanks in advance, great video!
Hi Luis. Thanks for the feedback. As to your question, I'm sorry but I can't really say as we do not live on that side of Forest Lake. Given the proximity to the motorway I would think there would be a little noise. I guess it's like a lot of places where there is a constant noise though and you get used to it so that you don't notice it as much. Also, consider that the shooting range is not too far away so there could be some noise from that. If you are on Facebook I would suggest that you join the 'Forest Lake Community Space (Australia)' page and put a post on there. I'm sure there will be people who live around that area who will be able to answer your question. Sorry I couldn't help more but I think the Facebook page will be able to. Robert.
Thank you for your video, it helped a lot since I haven’t been there but have been looking for buying a property in brisbane. Just wondering how many km to walk around the lake like you did?
Hi Zhang. Thanks for the comment and apologies for the delay in replying. It's about 2.2km round the lake. We really like Forest Lake as a place to live, it's reasonably close to the City yet has it's own relaxing feel. If there's anything you would like to know just ask and I'll try to help. Robert

Forest Lake is a beautiful place to live. Can you show the lake and the shopping center and all the restaurants we have?
