Eco-friendly and โ€œoff-gridโ€, this camp provides private, tented accommodation for 2 guests. Like all our units at the Reserve, this venue is exclusive in that guests enjoy having this unique and beautiful site all to themselves. Rest in the arms of a spectacular and ancient Celtis africana tree and reconnect to the gentle rhythms of the Forest. At night soak away any troubles in the wood-fired hot tub as you gaze upon the magnificence of the Milky Way above.
