The location is really good - right beside a shallow river where you can take a dip, swim or play with lifebuoy tubes they have onboard. (Charged 100 rupees per tube for resort customers).
They have four cottages to stay in a row by the river. Each cottage is basically a big-size tent that's enclosed within a solid wooden housing. Wooden flooring below and a thatched roof above. Two double beds in each cottage. One is an actual bed and other one is a floor bed with a partition between them. Ideal for a group of 4 people. Price 3000 per cottage. I think they do allow an extra person or two with additional charges.
Each cottage has an attached bathroom but I felt the bathroom was not well maintained and not clean. The bathroom has running water but no geysers as of Aug 2021.
They have a restaurant with seating options by the river. The service was quite responsive.
During our stay the food was really below average. We were told the main chef was not there but we were really disappointed with the food especially the starters. The pork dry fry, port stick, chicken dry fry were just bad. The breakfast however was okay.
If you book a stay, it's best reach there by 12.00 - 1 PM so that you can make the most of your stay. Check out time is 11 AM. One night stay here in enough I feel.
Going on a sunny day would be great to play in the river. Take cash with you to pay for your stay. Although they accept Google pay, mobile network is unavailable at most times.

Read more★☆☆☆☆ Very Disappointing Experience
I recently visited this resort with my friends, and I must say it was a very disappointing experience. First of all, there was no one at the front gate to guide or inform us about any rules or entry conditions. We walked in thinking it was fine, as no staff member was present to communicate anything.
After spending some time there and taking a bath, we were getting late and decided to leave. That’s when a staff member suddenly showed up and rudely demanded that we pay an entry fee. He told us that if we weren’t going to order food, we had to pay the entry charge — something that should have been clearly informed to us in the beginning. We had already eaten at a restaurant a few hours earlier and had no intention to eat again.
The way the staff spoke to us was extremely rude and unprofessional. They clearly don't know how to talk to visitors. If there are such rules, they should put someone at the entrance to explain the terms and conditions properly.
Definitely not a place I would recommend. There are plenty of better-managed resorts where guests are treated...
