Came across this place by chance while researching for my Rajasthan road tour. Was a bit sceptical if I should book this place but the reviews convinced me that it was worth a shot and I am certainly thankful for it. The host Mr Pankaj wasn't at the venue but he was in constant touch asking about our comfort. The tents are basic but very comfortable and clean. The food, especially dinner, was superb. Do request their koftas. Harshit is the caretaker and he took us for walks in the jungle. For a city guy like me it was so soothing and refreshing. Sunil took care of all our needs with a smile. We did zip lining and loved it too. The best part about the place was that the tents and the entire set up are done to be one with nature and there is no damage to the ecosystem. We were lucky to spot alligators basking in the sun from outside our room. Perhaps the only drawback is the noise from the stone crusher from a nearby mine. The approach road is stony given that the camp is within the forest. If you want seclusion and some time with nature then this is the place to be.

Isolated destination for people who love to immerse into nature. We spend nights there, enjoy the songs of birds in the morning, the sound of night and the gorgous sunset. Sometimes on the road we found beautiful peacocks flirting. How peaceful!

We stayed for 1 night at Dera Baghdarrah and really enjoyed the nice retreat in the calm and beautiful nature after some busy city days. The sleeping tents are huge and very clean. A big positive was definitely Pankaj, the manager, who was very friendly & helpful and spent lots of time with us explaining and showing us the fauna & flora around the retreat. We could also spot many crocs. The food was delicious, incredible given the kitchen in the middle of the nature. The only little downside was that parts of the retreat (especially some nice viewpoints) could not properly be used as they were under maintenance at that time. Otherwise, highly recommended!

Superb 5 star stay at Dera Baghdarrah!. Highly recommend this camp/ outdoor resort for all who are looking for an offbeat place to stay, close to nature yet with best amenities...all at a reasonable price tag. Myself and my family stayed in Dec 2022. Tents are clean, chic and very comfortable. Food was very tasty. Zip lining, Safari ( where we saw a leapord!), campfire, crocs lazing in the river, bird songs, starry skies, bonfire, machaan overlooking the lake with a super view, hammocks to sit and simple stare. What more can one ask for!. Please visit for atleast 2 nights. I shall be back!.

Nature at it's natural best... Once here, you could be anywhere but the typical lake-oriented Udaipur... Go here for nature, the breeze, crocodiles, a very elusive leopard, some birds, lip-smacking customizable food, beautiful lake-views... And the hospitality of owner Pankaj Chaudhary, Manager Mukesh Naagar (Take a course in hindi, Sanskrit and mantra's from him), the Chef, the support staff including Sunil, the other guy (perhaps his name was Imran) and the lady from the village who comes to make rotis on the fire... Really refreshing, relaxing, rewarding stay..
