Sorry, I forgot to ask last time. On my 2005 visit, there were some recent guestbook entries from campers, but they've since gone a bit more upscale. "Upscale" being relative to before, i.e. matching glassware instead of mismatched ones IIRC the camping wasn't done in the immediate area of the bandas. You might want to email Murray or JK Safaris and ask (they have some kind of partnership with JK as far as the banda operations go).

At LWF I prefer links to the PDFs because these include direct email contacts.

The accomodation info on the PDF looks more up to date than the other page but could use a little further clarification. The double bandas (which can sleep 3) and the family cottage have ensuite bathrooms and the rondavel has a detached bathroom. They also offer a full board option now as well.
