We stayed in the lakeside cabin for 2 nights. The cabin was a bit rustic but what makes the place so amazing is the lake and surrounding nature reserve. It’s so quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. We even swam in the lake just steps from the cabin. The staff are also very kind and friendly and the food was good for all of our meals. We also did one of the activities offered by the lodge which was a few hours hike/walk through the surrounding area to an incredible view point. We would have loved to do more of the activities offered but didn’t have enough time. The nature reserve, lake, and the surrounding crater lakes region in general is a very beautiful place.

Cosy rooms, wonderful views just in the middle of nature! There is a beautiful lake which is hippo and croc free. Also, at least three different monkey species will be your neighbours :-). The food was very tasty and the staff was very welcoming and helpful. Special greetings to Brenda!

The highlight is the crater lake besides the hotel where you can swim surrounded by jungle, monkeys and birds. You have many different types of monkeys around the lodge and it’s a great spot to do yoga while watching the sunset. I also saw mongooses! The room was basic but comfortable. There was a power cut and the hot water didn’t last, but it happens in this part do the world! And the beauty of the place compensate it. The staff is very nice too.

If you are looking for a great accommodation in the Fort Portal/Kibale NP area, look no further! We stayed here for our Chimp Trekking adventure - which is only a 30 minute drive away. You are staying in the midst of nature, on the banks of the ONLY crater lake in the area that still has pristine forest all around! We spotted three different species of monkeys during our stay. Our cottage was beautiful and very clean, nice hot shower and a toilet with an unbeatable view! Food in the restaurant was also great, and very helpful and friendly staff. The road up to the lodge is good. Highly recommended!

We stayed 2 nights at the campsite with car with Rooftop tent. A nice and quiet place with view over the Lake. Friendly staff, good food, lots of beautiful Monkeys and birds, guided walks. We did a walk along the lake, so peaceful. After the walk just sit and relax, you dont need more. Basic Toilet and shower Facilities. There are also nice cottages overlooking the Lake or the Mountains. The only challenge is to find the right way to come there. Mapsme sended us the shortest route in kilometers but not in time. The route was very challenging. But when you arrive there, the nature is the best present.

We spent our last night of our 2-week trip around Uganda at this very well maintained, beautiful campsite and we could not have chosen a better place to end our journey here! Staff and manager very super open and friendly, breakfast was very good and the view from our rooftop tent on our rental car was perfect, including all the action in the trees right in front of us, with dozens of monkeys jumping over into the next tree. The lake also provided for a very relaxing swim and is a wonderful option if you want to explore a Crater Lake with a jungle rim and full of life.

This is such a beautiful place! Surrounded by woodland and overlooking the lake, with excellent facilities and lots of monkeys! My room was really comfortable with hot water and electricity. I did chimp tracking and the forest&top of the world walks, all of which were fantastic.

Me and my husband stayed here for 2 nights for our chimp trekking experience ! Nice property, clean and basic rooms, good food. The property is bit away from the main road, which makes it essential to have a personal vehicle, to reach the chimp centre. The property has a beautiful lake and natural grounds, where we spotted several species of birds and primates and even a mongoose ! Great for birding ! Make sure you head down to the lakeside to enjoy a dip in the cool waters or to relax on the banks ! Their service in the restaurant is good, polite staff make it warm and hospitable, within a decent budget. Julius the owner was approachable and interacted with us.
