Had a nice experience. Campsite was perfect and Shubham kale who looks after the campsite was very humble and polite along with the others too. Had a very pocket friendly trip. The food, view and hospitality was amazing (also got the tent closest to the lake!!). Kudos to Shubham kale and the team. Would definitely like to visit again!

Shubham who looks over the camp site has been very cooperative and understanding. The camp site is closest to the lake and the view is at its best from the tents. Camping experience at its best. Sharing some pics for your reference.

"All things mentioned in mail was provided in proper timing, not delayed for anything. Apart from 4 hrs of traveling, every minute was worth the visit. Great home cooked food, comfortable tents, beautiful location covered with mountains from all sides. The organiser was very polite and helpful. Clean surrounding, fresh air, away from populated and polluted environment. Will definitely visit again. Toilet was very far away from tent. Boating was always good."

We went for 1 day only, staff and food was good, We went in summer, so the weather was not that good, it was hot in tenet because of which It was hard for me to sleep, the tent was not ventilation free. But i know in rainy season or in winter this place will be very very good.

A wonderful campsite looking over the Bhandardhara lake. Beautiful place, good home cooked food. Tents look smaller from outside but our good enough for persons with normal height. You get a Barbeque, Campfire, Lake Boating, Forest Trail alongwith star gazing in the night sky. Organizers were good and friendly. Bathroom hygenie has to be improved a lot though, this would make this place great. Would definetly like to visit again.

One of the best camping experience, camping was inside a lake, the organisers are really good, worth every rupee spent.
