This place is amazing. Right in the park. Electricity is from solar pannels, water they pull it from Ram ganga river that flows next to it. Food is basic yet delicious. Very friendly staff. Stayed for two nights. Once in a lifetime experience

Had a great stay, the rooms are nice and large plenty of space to spread out your gear. Every day they freshened up your room, clean towels etc. We had a 3 night stay, the staff were great, very friendly. Special thanks to the guys in restaurant, food was great being Aussies it was nice to have omelettes made just how you wanted for breakfast or lunch. The Indian food was buffet style and lots of choices. Being in the National park itself, there were no long drives to start the day. Accommodation is fenced off to keep wildlife out, plenty of monkeys still came to visit us. Our best Tiger sightings were here!!! Saw at least two a day, they came very close. So exciting!!!

Location, location, location. Right in the middle of the core area Corbett NP, the place is beautiful. The facilities are quite basic but considering the remote nature quite okay. Hygeine could be better.
