Each room has a veranda overlooking the tranquil waters of the Bhadra Reservoir and not to mention the spectacular view of the sunset over the backwaters. To appreciate nature, it is consciously decided not to have TV’s in the rooms.

This is an ideal tiger habitat although it is rare to see one! Wild dog tracks are also found all over the area.

Other mammals found in the area are common Palm civet, Stripe necked mongoose, Sloth bear, Large brown flying squirrel, Sambar, Spotted deer and the Wild boar.
