The reception area of Kali camp is set inside the main bungalow. This bungalow houses ten spacious rooms with attached baths, the indoor dining area (which doubles as a conference hall for groups) and the manager's office. There is an area exclusively for indoor games too. Facing the River Kali are eleven twin-bedded, Swiss tents, which offer luxury and a close-to-nature experience. Each tent has its own hammock to laze around and a small camp fire area. The camp also houses a 12 bedded family room and an ethnic mud-cottage.

Cuisine
At the far end of the tents is our Ghol Ghar - a round, open-to-sides gazebo - which is exclusively for guests to dine. JLR strongly believes that communal dining encourages sharing of experiences among guests.At the far end of the tents is our Ghol Ghar - a round, open-to-sides gazebo - which is exclusively for guests to dine.

Wildlife

Although a known habitat of the rare Black Panther, the large size of the forest makes spotting them very difficult. Yet, many guests have spotted it and other wild animals such as the spotted deer, sambar, barking deer, sloth bear, gaur (Indian bison), wild boars, fox, jackal, pangolin and elephants.

Guests have also had frequent sighting of the great pied hornbill, yellow footed pigeon, crested serpent eagle, adjutant stork, black crested baza and peafowls. The forests of Dandeli and Anshi are home to over 200 species of birds. From the Camp, one can sight Malabar hornbills nesting across the river. Ashy swallow shirkes, drongos, minivets, iora, brahminy kites, and many others birds can be spotted from the camp.
