Good to Know



The River here is on a gravel bar and is typically about knee deep. Since it is shallow, the water can be swift at the bank but calmer and deeper at the end of the gravel bar which is better for fishing and swimming. Entry is from the bank, walk in through the elephant ears.



This is a natural, riverfront setting—expect wildlife, insects, and changing outdoor conditions. Outdoor furniture may need a dusting off each morning.



The tropical dome is a greenhouse and can get warm and humid during the day



Booking Tips

Most guests wish they had stayed longer—3+ nights is highly recommended and automatically discounted when available.



We hope to see you soon!
