Keekorok Lodge was the first game lodge ever to be built in the Mara and is erected in the direct path of the spectacular annual wildebeest migration. At the height of migration, Keekorok lodge is surrounded by a swarming mass of wild game, and there is hardly any need to go on a game drive as it is not uncommon to see all sorts of wildlife on the perimeter of the grounds. The Lodge can easily be accessed by light aircraft, landing at the Keekorok Airstrip or by road from Nairobi approximately 280km away. Accommodation is in bungalows, single story blocks, and in comfortable shaded chalets. The liberal use of cedar wood, pink and grey sand river stone, and other indigenous building materials offset the green lawns and colourful bougainvillaea. After a day in the fresh air, the excitement of game spotting, a refreshing dip in the swimming pool, and the ritual of sundowners by the roaring log fire in the lounge heralds an evening full of traditional Maasai dancing, cultural or wildlife lectures and videos with yet another of those remarkable Keekorok dinners.
