After several years of travelling, i can honestly say this is the closest ive felt to being back home in Canada. Very much a 'cottage' feel to this place. Comfy bed, hot shower, peaceful setting. And Dave the owner is just a wonderful human being!

“We loved Dave the Cave!”

We arrived after a long day’s travel from Kisoro and we were welcomed with a refreshing cup of herbal tea from Dave’s own garden, which was delicious. This property has an enormous amount of rustic charm. Our cabin was very comfortable and clean and also very spacious. It was lovely to have a view overlooking the lake, with our own veranda, where we enjoyed our own morning coffee and an afternoon sun bathing and reading our book. This place is very special. You’ll see monkeys happily wandering around the grounds. The food is wholesome and home grown and the coffee is fantastic having been grown and roasted on the premises. The staff are friendly and helpful and a special mention has to go to Selly, he was so patient with all our silly questions but helped to make our stay very special. Thank you to Dave, Selly and all the staff. I would say just book it, perfect base for the Queen Elizabeth National Park and don’t miss the Kazinga Channel boat tour.

Loved our stay at Dave the Cave, the staff were super welcoming and they even helped us book the chimp trek for cost price.

un lugar ideal para descansar nice pkace to enjoy and rest

“A lot of fun. Cultural cooking was an experience we won’t ever forget”

It was very nicely set-up, it felt like being one with nature. The staff were very helpful and friendly!

Super beautiful lake to swim and such a nice view from the room and restaurant and super friendly staff!

“Back packing quality - but not a backpacking price!”

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the location was very good. The food was also okay.

What a place! Beautiful views, easy to walk to the view point over both crater lakes, possibility to take a swim in the crater lake, and close to Kalinzu forest if you want to do the chimps trekking. Food was good and staff super friendly and ready to help with whatever you need. The room was comfortable and the view from the shower over the lake is just amazing!

“Highly recommended to everyone visiting Queen Elizabeth Park.”

Great food, friendly staff and beautiful surroundings.

“Everytine again. A must when you go to QENP”

It’s a stunning place and there is so much to explore

“Great experience among nature”

Dave the Cave is an amazing location in the middle of a small forest, with monkeys climbing the trees around you. Staff is great and the food is very good. I came on my motorcycle, that they covered for me during the night without being asked. Great experience

“Wonderful place with wonderful people.”

Very beautiful with incredible views. All built imaginatively with care and great attention. Each cottage unique. Spacious. Incredible fresh food. The team did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. We did a long guided walk, learnt local cooking and loved swimming in the lake.

“Perfect palce - simple - in the middle of nature - monkeys direct in the trees!”

If you look for a simple place - ecolodge, situated a bit away from the mainstreet direct located at a fresh water lake where you can swim (safley), and if you are lucky monkeys watching playing in the tress and around, and you want to be at low comfort/no luxus in the middle of nature - welcome! - But please don´t await a TV! My friend and me really much enjyoed the palce for 3 nights. We asked the owner for a recomandation for a local guide to visit Queen Elisabeth National Par. - He called and very experienced one (30 years working as a guide) and we took him. We paid for a whole day including entrance fee to park (2 people - (international and 1 Ugandan) plus guide inclduing 4 WD car and including petrol for an 11 hours tour approx. 230 USD!

“Incredible place with amazing staff and people”

The place was beautifully located in wild nature near a lake. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, and made us feel at home. The animals (both monkeys and dogs) added a special feeling to the place as well.

“Perfect place for relaxing and doing some safari”

Staff was so friendly and helpful, helped a lot in organizing the safaris It’s in the middle of the nature… good location in order to switch off for a few days Breakfast was pretty decent

This place was all in all joyful to stay at. I had an amazing time with excellent staff and everything was considered and well taken care of.

“Would love to come back”

Very relaxed place in beautiful nature with a lovely staff. Mr David grows fresh produce in his vegetable garden and if you stay for dinner you can taste it! The camp fires after dinner were very cosy. Special mention to Medi (our first son) who made us feel welcome from the start.
