Treetops Lodge, Aberdare National Park Kenya
Located just inside the gates of Aberdare National Park in Kenya, Treetops overlooks waterholes and a saltlick. This was one of the first places we stayed when we went to Kenya the first time. It was so cool what they did there. The animals would come to the viewing area at night and you would leave a list of what you wanted to see at the desk. When the animal came to the water hole someone would knock on your door to wake you and tell you a Hippo for instance was at the watering hole and you would get up to see it! :D
Needless to say since we really had seen nothing we were up all night and stayed up on the roof watching stuff the whole evening. The Queen of England actually stayed here way back when. My guess is she had a nicer room than we did 30 or so yrs later.
