Amazing place if you like the outdoors. Makes you one with nature along with a lot of adventure!Guarantee you will have an Adventure of a Lifetime
Long back for boot camp with Thermax Ltd in 2006 was a great experience. Well organized with many activities. From the pic it seems not much has changed
Too good..well maintained..nice greenery..place is too good 👍
Sure, would love to come there again, honestly loved that place
A place where you can find peace, and wish to still experience some adventure at will. A perfect weekend get away. A phenomenal example of contemporary architecture designed by Mr. Christopher Benninger. Must visit for atleast a couple of days
Beautiful getaway.. worth multiple trips
YMCA Camp side is well. Maintained away from the pollution, in Lake and nature. If you are a nature lover you will love this place.They have tents and rooms as a bunker underground with bunk beds 8 in 1 room.It is good to visit in groups you can relax and enjoy the nature.They have kayaking and swimming in the lake. Also some adventure sports.Good food is served.In all a great place.
The Architecture of the Campsite is remarkable. The best architecture ever seen. The Campsite is well maintained. Activities wall climbing, Archery and amongst all Kayaking has no words to explain. Swimming in the lake (with safety guards) has heavenly experience. The Food at Campsite is too delicious. Best experience. Highly recommended for corporates.
Because its in a remote corner faraway from any big city/village.. because its well maintained and very convenient in every way... because the staff is very co-operative and helpful.. because this place is a peaceful getaway from the stressful hustle of city life...!
This place is just great !!!!
This is the best place to relax and avoid yourself from all social media and worldly things. The sanity is 💯. You can go for adventure camps/spiritual camps or just go to visit this place. The best and worst part is theres barely any network. Food is good. Theres peace and greenery here.
Picnic Spot with watersportsYou can also have youth retreats and Workshops
MY FAVOURITE PLACE IN MY LIFE EVER SEEN
Good for function, office tour and big gatherings.Not useful for small family one day trip.Food was ok.Staff is not cooperative.
Always refreshing to be here. Lot of activities like swimming, kayaking, rock climbing, archery etc can be done. The stay is amazing -underground dormitories and tents. Food is tasty as always. The approach road is good and scenic. Great place for large groups.
Great place. Canoe ride. Eco friendly green rooms. Lots of peace n green. Good food. Great staff.
Its very awesome place
Great place to eat, sleep and relax. Quiet, heavily wooded. Water body close by to kayak, cool off. Wow food! Wonderful friendly staff.
Lovely place to spend a night. Located at a serene place and visiting the place when theres no other bookings at the place makes it feel like a private holiday venue. Do try the kayaking and ask for extra time. Youll never forget taking a swim in the crystal clear lake! ❤
Its a great place to be away from the city chaos and yet to be in a peaceful place!!... Great activities especially for youth but even the older can use it... Great place to be with friends and families as well the YMCA camps that are being conducted here is great experience for young children and youths. Must try place!👍✨
Good place to hangout with friends and family.We have lots of activities to spend the day.1. Archery2. Gunshot3. Wall climbing (need a lot of strength and stamina to climb.)4. Kayaking . One of the best experience. Just go in the lake and you can find peace and natures beauty( A kayak is a small, narrow watercraft which is propelled by means of a double-bladed paddle.)5. Trekking. (On demand. Need to get in touch with authority)All this activity will cost around 100 or 150rs per activity.Note: There is no mobile network.
One of the best places to be at. Mesmerizing experience in a remote location. No network.Best things to try out : kayaking, swimming, zip-lining.
Best camping experience ever. Perfect environment for an adventure vacation. The architectural & landscaping aspect also works out to be quite unique unlike the usual. With respect to holistic learning, experience, food and related activities YMCA has always excelled at it and this camping destination is certainly one of a kind.
Very beautiful place, you can meditate, you can do some paid activities, which are very very reasonable, its away from the noise and its pollution free 100%. The food was awesome, hygiene 100% clean. Waiting for my next visit.Would be obliged if you could please could mention the rates of packages you have.
The moments spent there are most memorable always ....it was the best and amazing camp experience I ever got. Feel like going there again and again..... Must visit this place. Youll love it.😋😍❤
Good place to visit...!& U can spend Quality time with your friends... Always for business and religious conferance hall available!
Fabulous modern yet blending with the environment Campsite. Architect Christopher Charles Benningers award winning design. Great place to learn adventure skills, grow a an individual and as a group or just chill. The lake, the forest, the hills are alive with the sounds of Youth empowerment.
Excellent campsite with great stay, food and outdoor activity facilities. While professionally managed, they still have a very friendly and warm approach to guests. The rooms are clean and the washrooms are well maintained. It is difficult getting there from Mumbai or Lonavala but once you get there you wont regret the journey.
Been here many times .with family n without family.. one of it was the National Youth Camp..place would just make you fall in love with nature.. n activities..Its just u nature n challenges if u up for it.Cant wait to take my kids.. n visit again.. Best part so many things to learn n explore..
Great place for a camp - love the facility and the feel. The lake is awesome and so is the forest feel. Food is good quality.
Had been there way back in 2000. What an amazing place. Brought back some find memories. Will definitely plan a visit soon.
Though I volunteer for the camps but I wouldnt deny the fun you have when you come here as a camper. The number of activities (Kayaking, Rope Climbing, Zip-Lining, Mountain Climbing, overnight Trekking are just a few) The variety of food you get daily, Cabins and Tents provision just give you the campers vibe. You just get to be with nature and witness Gods creation around with birds chirping in the morning, monkeys spying on you for your stuff, fireflies in the trees making it shine better than a Christmas🌲tree than we humans could do and to top it all frogs and lizards giving you a suprise visit in the bathrooms. An experience to be in with nature and get disconnected from the City life. The best get-away place to take your colleagues & friends for an outbound. The Campfire night on the last day has always been a memorable one to me.Thank you YMCA
Good place for weekend. Activities taken care very well.
An amazing escape from the city life. Well maintained place with beautiful scenery.
Its an awesome place to spend time with loved ones and to reconnect with nature. The food is simply amazing!! One visit is just never enough :)
A wonderful peaceful place surounded by water on all sides. Has comfortable accomodation and fun filled activities. Good budget place by YMCA
Its a very good place to visit and enjoy your weekend..
Best place for Camping and connecting with nature at its best.Beautiful place and just amazing to stay at YMCA Camp Lakeside. A must Visit with Family and friends.
Beautiful place. Loved it. Awesome food.
Authentic place surrounded with Nature...Had taken package for one day which includes Food, accommodation, Adventure activity, Bonfire and water sport activity....You can visit this place any time but most recommend time is manasoon where this place covered with heavy Rain fall and you can enjoy the authentic view of nature with hill during rainy season...Its so far from city so you can reach either with 4 Wheeler or 2 wheelar....I like the Bunker of this palace which includes 8 bed and its is in the grond where it cover with soil and tree from upper level...Great place must visit with group of people to get maximum fun...Rated 5 out of 5....
Great place for a relaxing camping experience. Would be better if they allowed us to bring own tents.
Amazing place. Get the best homemade food. Great activities and treks had the best time people and memories inYMCA ❤️
Best place to hangout with friends and family on a weekend.... Quality food and helpful staff.Would surely love to visit again.Only thing is the mail misleads the price of games as a single package but actually each game costs independently. Please mention the rates after application of GST on games/accomodation....

Wonderful place. Homely and safe atmosphere. In the arms of nature. Ideal place for nature lovers.

Bombay YMCA’s Camp Lakeside is a unique training centre in the heart of tranquility. Not a hotel or resort, the campsite offers both individuals and groups the opportunity to disconnect from the hustle of city life and re-connect with themselves and their mates.Our 40 acre campsite is surrounded by the serene Andhra Lake, and is a great place for environmental training, adventure activities, corporate training, and even weekend get-a-ways!Over the years children have grown up at Camp Lakeside and returned as parents with their families. Campers have come back as volunteers, and volunteers have joined as staff. Companies send their staff for numerous outbound experiences and training programmes. Colleges bring their students to learn and grow as young adults. Schools across the country bring their kids to develop self confidence and learn new skills.Due to its eco-friendly nature and design, Bombay YMCA’s Camp Lakeside has won numerous national awards and has a very symbiotic relationship with the landscapeThe Bombay YMCA is a non-profit Charity Trust focused on youth development. Do note that our campsite is not a party hotspot. We do not offer facilities for dances, and alcohol is not permitted.*Source: Internet
Good place for team events, good neighbourhood. the access to this place is not so good, should consider this before traveling
The place was awesome and the view is awesome and even the food is good 😃
Nature centric place for education and development programs

Great place to camp out and great people to manage the place and talk to. Awesome food is a bonus as well.
Lakeside beautiful location
I have some of the best memories over here.Healthy food, lovely people and being completely immersed in nature.
Amazing and peaceful environment with a lot of adventurous activities for all ages. Awesome architecture and friendly staff.
The YMCA is about 63 km from Lonavala and close to 35 km from Kanhe Phata. Be prepared for a long winding drive for the last 1½ hours when reaching the campsite. The venue is huge with dense vegetation and the temperature is pleasant in the shade even in the height of summer. Please remember that it is a campsite and not a hotel or a resort; which makes the resources available here, scarce. Be thoughtful of the requests that you make to the kitchen and housekeeping staff. They would have to endeavour a lot of hardships to deliver a seemingly small request on your end.
Calm, serene and off-grid.Switch off your phones, wander off the forest, take a dip in the lake, Take an actual break!
Superb. A place to visit with family or friends for a weekend.
Amazing experience everytime I visit the Campsite. Beautiful structure, environment friendly and just makes you fall in love with nature.#Amazing#Campsite#MustVisit#
Get ready to face real nature, its a place you can never ever forget. God bless YMCA
