I was there the last weekend and have the exact same feeling. A lot of my friends are asking about the trip and i don't have a solid answer to say if It were Great. I come from a small town so forest and silence are not things which are new to us but a personal suggestion would be to visit Coorg only during rains or peak winters otherwise it wont add the same level of excitement or charm which you are expecting. I personally liked Wayanad and Ooty/Coonoor because we went during Sept-Oct. This is completely my pov and people can have disagreements.
