Places to Stay:
Private Lodge – Manasa Lodge – A nice open place. Rooms are small but just enough for you to spend night. Individual huts gives makes the place inviting. We hope that the people do not use these places for “entertainment, drinking and eating”. The night we stayed was 31st night and there was loud loudspeaker, and party till midnight. It hard for nature lovers to see such kind of misuse of place.
Govt Lodge – Highly not recommended. It is in dilapidated condition and there is no open space for you to move around.
