Three Camel Lodge

		“The Three Camel Lodge was a 5-star establishment….” -L. Nguyen The main lodge building—the highlight of the camp—is a blend of Mongolian artifacts and traditional design, which creates an informal and relaxing atmosphere where guests can lounge by the central fireplace and dream of present and future journeys. The large wooden porch provides the ideal spot to enjoy the serenity and peacefulness of the Mongolian outback while enjoying the late afternoon sky or brilliant night stars. And stone terraces are the perfect place for travelers to behold the extraordinary view of the desert while enjoying a cold drink from our fully-stocked bar. Gers, the traditional felt tents of nomadic herders, provide a wonderful balance between nature and comfort. Hand-made using a latticed wood structure covered with layers of felt and canvas, each ger is heated by a wood stove and furnished with beautifully painted wood-framed beds and furniture. Western-style bathroom and shower facilities are located in the main lodge building found a few hundred feet from the gers. Each ger offers simple elegance while blending with the stunning landscape of the Gobi and is situated to have an unobstructed view of the far-reaching desert and the Gobi-Altai Mountain range. Based on twin occupancy, the gers provide an authentic and memorable taste of Mongolian culture and allow you to visit the remote Gobi Desert in comfort and luxury.
