Blackbuck Resort by Jungle Lodges

The Black Buck Resort is concealed behind a barren facade, located 18Km from the city of Bidar in north Karnataka.Tranquility is the calling of this place which finds a sweet spot between the Honnikeri Reserve Forest and the Vilaspur Lake. Free roaming black bucks abound in the surrounding grasslands, giving the resort its name. You can savour the unique experience of trailing blackbucks on foot and watch them disappear into thickets. Its not just the black bucks, even peacocks that make a sudden appearance can spring a surprise or two.

The surrounding hillocks insulate the resort from the cacophony of the city. Rustic cottages perched on slopes by the lake shore create a medley of beautiful vistas. It is a perfect setting for those who can snuggle into the blanket of serenity that surrounds the resort. The usually sedate environs come alive when the birds are on song and langurs play along. Visit the Black Buck Resort to enjoy a lakeside rhapsody while leaving the baggage of urban life behind.

The resort currently has 18 spacious cottages dotting the periphery of the lake. The aesthetic cottages have been thoughtfully designed to suit the local weather. Spanning across three categories the cottages come in varying sizes each offering a unique view of the pristine lake. All cottages are air-conditioned and those in the special and executive category have thatched roofs to keep their interiors cool.

The rooms include
