Pawna Paradise Lake Camping - Campground in Gevhande Khadak, Thakursai - Pune, India

Awesome location and Services. Organizer is so co-operative in every smallest thing! Appreciate it!! Night ambience was so mesmerizing. Food was Delicious and upto expectations, including Barbecue session! Friendly for kids and pet! Washrooms were clean. You can also swim in dedicated area of lake! And it is totally safe! Highly recommended place to spend a night with your loved ones, family and friends!!

Average campaigning place on the side of pawna dam backwaters. There are a number of other options with their different types of campaigns, rooms, ambience and facilities. Some provide luxurious rooms and some offer paragliding activities. You can choose your place as per your requirement. Normal campaign. Normal food. Average service by their staff. A number of activities like cricket, archery, football, etc are available. I loved the location at sunset and sunrise, awesome views.

Best Place so far. Service is prompt. Mr. Ananta(owner of the Property) is very helpful. Dinner was amazing (specially his chicken masala). Prefer cottage option over tents.

Please read detailed review on different parameters below: COST - I did spot booking for 6 people on 12 November 2022. They charged us Rs. 1200 per person whereas all other camps in nearby area were charging 1000 per person. When we asked why their charges are high, they said they have big area, better quality tents, bedding and food with various options in the breakfast. Later we came to know that they had charged different amounts to different people for the same package in the range of Rs. 1000 - Rs. 1300. The High charges were not worth of it at all as explained below. AMBIENCE - No doubt the area of this campsite is bigger as compared to the nearby camps but it was very dull. The other campsites were full of liveliness and beauty with amazing lights and decorations and good music but this camp was very dull. FOOD - Food was Pathetic. No taste at all. In Veg BBQ, they gave only 2 pieces of Paneer, potato, pinaple each. Potato was not properly cooked at all. For dinner, they gave Dry Potato Sabji with no taste and Paneer Sabji with thin gravy. For breakfast, there was only Poha and Tea whereas they had promised Bread Jam, Omelet, Misal Pav, Poha etc SERVICE - Service was the worst. Everything was very slow. They served BBQ at 9 pm, dinner at 10:30, arranged bonfire at 12:30 and live guitarist came at 1:30 am at night. Everything was delayed by 2 hours. And the owner and manager were both rude and arrogant. They didn't pay any attention to our complaints and behaved very badly with everyone. In the morning, all the guests collectively complained the owner about the bad services and high charges but still he didn't accept his mistakes. Looks like they don't have any intention to improve anything. LOCATION - Location of campsite is good. It's besides the lake so you get good view of the lake and the mountains FACILITIES - They have good numbers of toilets and change room as compared to nearby campsites. Their tents are good and clean. Sleeping Mattress were better as compared to other campsites and beddings were good too. They have lots of sport items like Archery , Badminton, Cricket stumps, bat and balls, football, carrom etc. They also have Trampoline which is good entertainment for kids. They have dedicated area for music and dance but their music system was not so good. Overall the cost is not worth the experience. The Food , ambiance, lighting, decoration and music is not up to the mark. Staff need to improve their attitude, be polite and provide better service to the guests. None of the guest would like to visit them again because of their pathetic service whereas the nearby campsites were full mainly because of repeat customers.

Pleasant ambience, live music available. Unlimited food. Location is prime. Sports activities like badminton and cricket are available. The only thing is that the food served is not hot.

The service is very bad and food quality is very average, the service boy shows quite the attitude

Worst experience for camping. All excitement faded. Their service is not at all as mentioned in the price description. Instead the other camping places were more happening and as per on time meals. It is always experienced that grass seems greener on the other side. But this time it was really the fact. These Paradise cove people were not bothered at all, no milk in chai, evening snacks were of no taste and quality. Night non veg starters were served at 9 and veg staters were served at 9.45. That too only 2 paneer pieces, 2 almost raw potato slices, 2 tomato slices and 2 pineapple slices to be precised. And on the top, dinner was pathetic. Watery paneer gravy with no taste at all, boiled mashed potatoes, dal, roti and rice with onion-lemon salad. First time I got settled on aalu ki plain haldi wali sabji. No live music or DJ. The customers were only playing music on YouTube and entertaining themselves. becaare...... The guitarist came at 1.30 am to play live music . Next day, as promised all were waiting for high quality breakfast as mentioned in the description and as the owner promised a day before. (Misal-pav, bread jam, Poha and eggs/omelette) but Again we got disappointed as only Poha was served with pani wali chai. There everything is available but paid, excluding from the package you take. Then during breakfast all the people complained about the pathetic service and food. But the manager and owner was like ignoring people. Because they do it on daily basis. Unko koi fark nahi padta types... Low standard, inexperienced, cheap services with lots of false promises. Fake idiots. Ruined our trip. Bewakoofs... Positive reviews also must have been given by them or their relatives to attract people. But we just came back yesterday. Paid the most expensive camping charge with no services.

Apart from the location, nothing is good about this so called Pawna Paradise. Tents were unclean n leaking. Washrooms were filthy. The path to the washrooms is unfinished n rough, not suited for elderly people, one has to walk through stones n boulders. Barbeque was inedible, prepared by unprofessional staff n dinner was outsourced. Breakfast the Poha was hard . Staffs were not too helpful. Bad experience overall.
