"We went for a trail race and stayed at homestay Makodu Vanasiri — honestly one of the best homestays I’ve ever stayed at.
They treated us like family, fed us the most delicious homemade food, checked on us after the race, and made sure we were comfortable in every possible way. The place is peaceful, clean, surrounded by nature, and run by the sweetest people.
Highly recommending it to anyone visiting this side of Karnataka. ❤️🏡"

"The stay feels like second home it’s very beautiful & with an amazing view . The owner is very humble and good person. They serve amazing food here and with 3-4 varieties for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
They have camp fire and they provide Bluetooth speaker as well in the evening . Added brownie points they serve amazing starters both veg and non- veg.
The rooms are pretty clean they have drinking water at each room and mosquito coils and heater. The beds are also good and they have extra blankets and pillows as well.
They have small fan as well & we did not use it much as the weather was too cold to use lol .
I would definitely recommend this for my friends out there. It is good for both families and big group of friends.♥️💫"

"Super and very well maintained place , the owners Mr. Narayana Gowda and his wife Sunita are the perfect hosts. The rooms are very clean and the ambience is also perfect for a stay. Their son Matvik was also very helpful during our stay. Indira the help was very kind to. We would definetly recomend this place for a home away from home. The food cooked by Sunita was simly finger licking. The homestay is surrounded by senic beauty."
