Pawna Lake Cottage in Different Seasons
A cottage is especially good value in the monsoon and winter. When it rains, you have a solid roof and a dry bed while still hearing the rain on the lake. On cold winter nights, the double bed and closed room keep you cozy after the bonfire. We're open 365 days.
Where We Are
At- Thakursai, Post- Pawnanagar, near Lonavala tehsil, Maval, Maharashtra 410406. We're about 55 km from Pune and about 110 km from Mumbai. Pawna Lake is the reservoir of the Pavana Dam, surrounded by forts like Tung, Tikona and Lohagad. Read more about the lake on Wikipedia. Use Get Directions in our location section.
What Guests Notice First About the Cottages
Three things stand out when you walk in: the warm wood finish, the double bed and the glass door that opens straight onto the lawn. In the evening the camp glows under string lights, and in the morning the lake is just a short walk away. It still feels like camping, with the lawn, the bonfire and the stars, but with the comfort of a proper room. That balance is why a Pawna Lake cottage is so popular for special occasions.
What to Pack for a Cottage Stay
Even with a proper bed, a few things make a Pawna Lake cottage stay more comfortable:
- A warm layer for the bonfire and the walk back
- Comfortable slippers or sandals for the lawn
- A torch for the paths after dark
- Personal toiletries and medicines
- A power bank for photos (Triangle Glamping has a charging point)
- A rain jacket in the monsoon
Remember that swimming in the lake is not allowed, for your safety. Enjoy the view from the shore and your sit-out instead.
