Muuido Natural Recreation Forest is gaining significant popularity among families due to its accessibility from Seoul and the metropolitan area, offering both lush forests and the vast West Sea. Weekend bookings are highly competitive, often referred to as a 'lottery accommodation,' but securing a spot during off-peak weekdays or through cancellations can provide an affordable stay. The island's name, Muuido, has various origins, including a theory that its shape resembles a general in official robes dancing.
Reservations for the recreation forest are made through the integrated platform, Supnadle. Weekend and public holiday bookings involve a lottery application from the 4th to the 9th of each month, with results announced on the 10th. Unselected or canceled rooms become available on a first-come, first-served basis from 9 AM on the 15th. Weekday bookings open on a first-come, first-served basis every Wednesday at 9 AM. Forest cabins are ideal for those seeking private relaxation and mostly consist of 6-person rooms. Multi-child families can receive a 30% discount on weekdays during off-peak seasons and 10% on weekends/peak seasons, with some families booking a 6-person room for around 50,000 KRW.
Even non-lodging visitors can enjoy forest walks or free forest experience programs during daily operating hours (9 AM to 6 PM, closed Tuesdays). The recreation forest is accessible by car via Muui Bridge and can be combined with a visit to the nearby Hanagae Beach for a combined forest and sea itinerary. Accommodations typically feature a living room/kitchen, one bedroom, and one bathroom, equipped with a refrigerator, electric stove, tableware, and bedding.
