Fodor's Expert Review Mac Lake
Cuc Phuong National Park, Vietnam
The bungalows at Mac Lake are possibly the nicest in the park with good facilities including hot water and en suite bathrooms complementing the idyllic surroundings. Serene Mac Lake is one of the prettiest areas of the national park and the accommodations are certainly atmospheric. Adding to the general conviviality of the location is a lively common area featuring a billiard table. Traditional music is often performed here, and regular bonfires also make for lively gatherings. Dormitory accommodations in a large stilt house are also available for groups. To save energy there's no hot water in the stilt house, so cold showers are the order of the day.
PROS
- traditional music and bonfires are a regular occurrence
- convivial atmosphere
- beautiful location
CONS
- dorm-style accommodations aren't for everyone
- things can get noisy on weekends when young Hanoians descend on the area
- no hot water in the stilt house
