A long drive and a stay away from all the hassles of busy city life was long pending and we decided to make use of the long weekend that came with the October 2 public holiday. As usual, it was an unplanned trip and booking was done only on 28th of September. Booking was done using Yatra.com, we booked one of their Fairy Tale Cottages (everything else was booked by then). Google maps will take you to the right place without any issues, and you would love the drive. The resort is located about 26Km away from Virajpet. The resort is part of 100acre plantation which has a waterfall, and the construction is done in a way with minimal impact on the environment. After climbing the hill, we reach the reception and you can park your vehicle there. All the cottages are located uphill side by side. Cottage which was allotted to us were one among the last ones and we had to always depend on their offroad Jeep/Gypsi to get there and come down. But that was fun, my son really enjoyed the rides. Restaurant is located near the reception and they pick-up and drop off upon our request. The rooms were cleaned and arranged well. Our cottage named Delgatie, was very spacious and had a room upstairs that they will arrange if we request for an additional bed. It had a fridge, a TV and a kettle. Cottage was facing the forest and we could always hear sound from the waterfalls. You can go near the waterfalls by walk, just make sure to get the rubber boots (we took it from reception) as there might be leeches all the way. Restaurant was really spacious and food was tasty. Breakfast and dinner was part of the package I opted and both were Buffet. For lunch, we ordered in advance a la carte. We didn't go out of the resort both days as it was raining heavily. They also do plantation walks (kids below 7yrs not allowed), off-road drive (check with reception on the availability) and there are indoor activities and a swimming pool. We could only do a walk to the waterfalls as other options were not feasible due to rain, we didn't feel bored though! Staff there were extremely helpful, they are always available at a phone call. What could have been better? There was a delay in arranging the room. We waited for more than 30 minutes at the reception, though we reached half past 3. May be because it was fully booked and staff were really busy. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at Misty Woods. Thanks to all the staff for all the efforts that you put in.
