How to reach the property

Written by the host, walked and confirmed by our verifier.

From the Bus Stand, take the Muthodi / Bhadra road via Lakya. At the Muthodi forest check-post (around 26 km), turn right before the barrier and park at the clearing — the cabin is a 300 m walk down the marked path to the water.

Know before you go

The practical truths booking sites rarely tell you.

  • Last verification is 6 days old — monsoon access road being re-checked.
  • Canoe slots: 7 AM and 4:30 PM, with the guide.
  • Leeches in monsoon; salt socks provided, wear them.
  • Keep food inside — monkeys are quick learners.
