Bhandardara Camping

Beautifully managed by emphatic individuals who are passionate about the nature, cultural heritage around them and on a mission to pass the compassionate understanding to others. This place is highly highly recommended, especially to the urban populace, those who want to enjoy the hinterlands of rural India, want to enjoy scenic views of Sahyadri hills. This place is best suited to them. Please do visit, enjoy.💙❤️

Very pathetic experience after staying here, you won't have to pay extra for spider inside your tent. You will get nothing hygienic there whether it's food, or your tent ,where you have to spend whole night. I'll never recommend anyone to visit this camping looters. They will promise everything before booking and after reaching there you will get nothing.

Getting straight into pros and cons. Pros- 1. Excellent camping location- This place is quite scenic, with lush green mountains on the front and serene lake at the back of this place. 2. The host family is warm, receptive and welcoming Cons- 1. The meals served during the stay may not be to your liking and not much options are there for your evening snacks or breakfast to chose from. However dinner was adequate. 2. Indian styled toilets were there which were not well kept. 3. A bit expensive if compared to the services provided.

Nice arrangment, good view. Tents are at proper distance to preserve your privacy. Food is tasty. Only issue is toilet. It's at the upper side from tents so in case of emergency and specially for old age people, it's not feasible to reach there. They must have 1 toilet at least for ladies and senior citizens at the camp site.

Good Food and location but everything else was horrible. Ruined our new year night celebrations. 1. I have booked 5 double occupancy tents for 10 persons and when I reached there, found 4 double occupancy tent and 1 single occupancy tent. When we asked them about it, that person tried to convince us that it is a double tent even though that tent is half the size of other tents. 2. When we asked about lighting a campfire as it was getting cold, they said they will light it after dinner. As it was already past 9 pm, we have to light the campfire ourself. Later, when we requested some more wood (as we have to stay awake till midnight), that man said, "no more wood available and if you want more wood come with us in the jungle and we will bring it." 3. Now the Worst part. TOILETS. They have dug the ground and fitted Indian seating toilets in that dug. They have covered the toilet with a tent and just a single curtain at the door. No lock to the toilets. It was a very horrible experience for the girls. 4. No pillows provided in the tent. Surely will never visit them again and will not recommend at all.

Amazing locations. Good food cooked in front of you. Well maintained tents. Scenic view. Absolutely brilliant sky with stars on new moon night. Reasonable , but slightly higher side. Fun place with friends,family or co workers. 2 days 1 night, snacks,tea, dinner and breakfast included.

NOT WORTH IT. 1 - Location was not as per expectation. They have promises lake side camping whereas it was above the lake. 2 - During the booking they will promise lot of things but reality is different. 3 - Barbaque served to 26 people and each person received 1 pc of paneer. More we asked and it never came (promise 200 gm barbaque) 4 - Water container got empty in night, nobody refilled. 5 - As a big group, they promised us for seperate section. after reaching there, they added few more tents with our tents only and told us please adjust 6 - Tent was too small for 2 people. 7 - As a part of activity we suppose to get Boating which we not received. HORRIBLE SERVICE OF GETSETCAMP. WILL FIND MUCH BETTER OPTION THEN THIS.

1) Pathetic hosts at the tent area. There was only one person called Amit(one of the hosts) who we met at Samadhan hotel who was friendly and helping. 2) The tent location and the toilets(at Samadhan hotel) are a km away. 3) They do have a makeshift toilet at the tent location which is extremely dirty. 4) Tents are placed like how cows are placed in a cowshed. Close to each other. 5) There we're groups which were drunk like crazy. So you get complimentary loud music from multiple groups and uncalled stupidity around you. 6) The barbeque is name sake. The hosts sit in a corner and do the barbeque. They give chicken pieces with bone. The pieces are as big as a motichoor ke ladoo. Also, which tastes horrible. Veg option bad 6 pieces of paneer. We asked for a plate more. The charge for that was 150. 7) Our tents were placed on uneven ground which also had stones. Hence it was very uncomfortable. 8) Their arrangement to sit outside the tent is pathetic. 9) Dinner was chicken in oil and red chilli powder. 10) The bonfire was a joke. The person who was trying to ignite the wood wasted few logs just trying to get fire from other bonfires. 11) There were glass shards behind our tent due to previously consumed alcohol. Obviously that credit goes to mannerless Indian people. 12) The blankets provided were unhygienic. We luckily carried our own blankets. 13) Next day morning at 7:30 was supposed to be boating .But the host at camp area did not bother to wake up. We woke him up, he peeped utside and then slept again. 14) Just when you think the worst is over, a group of drunk people come around your tent and start shouting and talking to each other. Then they piss right behind our tent. 15) There is a super cute Labrador called pinky at Hotel Samadhan. She was the only thing good in this whole experience.
