Children's classics:

The Wind in the Willows, by Kenneth Graham. (spelling?) The Wild Wood is a rather eldritch environment - but one of the good guys lives deep within.

Winnie-the-Pooh, by A A Milne. This is an open woodland - a forest in the old English sense. Animals having silly adventures.

Quite a few of the Robin Hood novels have a lot of woodland porn. I seem to remember a good one by Roger Lancelyn Green.

Adult fantasy: The Winter of the World, by Michael Scott Rohan. The middle volume of the trilogy is actually called "The Forge in the Forest" - and that forest is near-sentient. The trilogy as a whole is next rank after Tolkien, I'd say. Set in a recent glacial period; a group of friends do battle against the powers of the Ice.

SA: Also Hexwood, by Diana Wynne Jones. YA fantasy; it's been too long since I read it to give any coherent summary but there's a definite mythic wood. She did several with woodsy settings; I think The Pinhoe Egg is one of them (in the Chrestomanci series.)
