The deodar trees and the chirping birds make it a pleasant stay for you! The treehouses are wooden structures that are about 50 feet above the ground. It is constructed in very old architecture called Kathkunia style (without cement with mud-plastered interiors). The cottages are cozy and very rustic and are spacious.

People who have been here never forget mentioning the lip-smacking authentic North Indian food at Sanjha Chulha the restaurant of the Himalayan village.
