Backyard Camp, a Pet-Friendly Lakeside Camp

No. We want you to come over and enjoy nature sounds and not disturb the natural sonic energy. Also, we respect the locals need for silence and space.  

We started Lakeside Camp to encourage people to connect with nature, enjoy nature sounds, stargaze and basically relish those moments you don't get to experience in the city.  

You will have to carry your dry waste back with you to the city. The waste management in remote places like Lakeside Camp cannot handle excessive waste and will only cause more damage to its immediate habitat and wildlife.   

Yes. The farm is very close to the Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary. We have elephants, leopards, civet cats among other species that frequent the area.   

No. There is a lot of wildlife activity in the area. We do not encourage campers to step out post 6 to sustain peaceful co-existence of wildlife and us humans :)  

Walk, read, stargaze, play indoor games and swim in the lake.

It has taken us over 10 years of careful planting and nurturing of the soil to be able to have loads of wild visitors today. We have over 100 species of insects (documented), critters and bird life. Feel free to ask us about the same or about the wildlife and conservation situation in the area, and we will be happy to share verified information with you. 

We don't serve dog food. We can refrigerate or heat up the food if required.

Dry waste, bottles, cigarette butts or chewing gums, which are harmful to the animals cannot be discarded at the farm. It is very difficult to clean up once its lost amidst the undergrowth. 

We have birds roosting on the farm, and we would appreciate if you do not get close or take pictures of their nests.  

We do not endure people whose idea of a break is getting very drunk and loud.  

Come for the stillness, the charm of the wilderness, and most importantly, come to decamp the city in you. 

We serve only homely vegetarian food. 

Eggs will be prepared.
